Ouch that thread makes me quite sad at the state of discourse on HN today. It's a lot better than this thread.
That thread was skeptical, but it's still far more substantive than what you find here today.
I think that's because the announcement there actually told you something technically interesting. This just presents a result (which is cool), but the actual method is what is really cool!
