Everywhere when there is a context about reading.. Ppl talk only about physical books, doesn't the same ideology apply for an article that you read online.. Be it HN articles? I even forget from what I read in HN.

It depends. When you read, you're approaching a well to drink the knowledge therein. When you're approaching a place that streams- HN, reddit, twitter- you're approaching a river.

You approach rivers and wells differently, and so you probably forget books and "flow"-based articles differently.
