One "philosophical difference" that you need to know about is that comments like these aren't allowed here:

> I know I'll get napalmed for saying this

> And if you downvote this, tell me why, otherwise I'll just assume you are with those that want to exploit me and others.

Please reread the HN guidelines, particularly the last two: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html. If you're going to comment here, please follow them.

The "why is this on HN" genre is also pretty lame.

I'm sorry, I was unaware of that guideline.

Here are some you might be unfamiliar with:

'When disagreeing, please reply to the argument instead of calling names. E.g. "That is idiotic; 1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be shortened to "1 + 1 is 2, not 3."'

'Please don't submit comments complaining that a submission is inappropriate for the site. If you think a story is spam or off-topic, flag it by clicking on its 'flag' link. If you think a comment is egregious, click on its timestamp to go to its page, then click 'flag' at the top. (Not all users see flag links; there's a small karma threshold.)'

Thanks.
