Now imagine if all such fluffy articles posted on HN have such a gist; how much time and sanity it could save. https://hngists.com is my 15-year-old nephew's attempt to do it. It would be great if you could post your comment there.

I'm sure this is useful to some, but I come to HN more for longer-form articles these days.

This change might have originated when I ditched programming as a career, or merely growing older. Dunno.

Language is so disposable these days (much of my received text messages are about 50% emoji now), I really respect someone who takes the time and effort to ply an interesting tome out of English.

There's no reason to use another website. This one works quite nicely.
An advantage of hngists: you can read all the gists of all the 30 articles on the same page without navigating to a separate article page—a few clicks and a few minutes could be saved per visit.
