Hits home here. I started reading HN as a college freshman. At the time, a lot of the titles were gibberish to me. Over the next few years I sucked in articles and comments until I had (what I thought was) a pretty good mental model of the industry.

Well that model was... quite a bit off.

But the filter bubble has its merits. A little daily exposure to HN keeps the ideas churning when you're mostly doing mundane stuff.
