bummer n-gate didn't comment on its own hn post

I was really looking forward to that write up, as well. Unfortunately, the author must have some rule about not breaking the fourth wall. Or they avoid softballed summaries?

I think a recursive n-gate situation would be delightful. Someone should make this happen.

Some internets post weekly bitter satires of Hackernews to the internets. Hackernews finds it and misses the point entirely, of course: Hackernews is being laughed at, not with.

An internet finds a bitter satire of his industry and is endlessly amused at taking the piss out of sincere but naive youngsters who debate technical concerns without understanding the appropriate context and history. The mocker misses the point entirely: Hackernews didn't fail, the generation that came before did, in letting their culture die.

One Hackernews asks some Hackernews to ask the internet to make a satire about a satire of some Hackernews. Hackernews becomes Stackoverflow.
