I guess you just found that the oddest of articles can prove popular. I submitted a couple of my own pieces that I found really interesting and they just, well, died instantly :) And a recent off-hand analysis of modern cyber security brought in 1500 views... One thing I do think is obiovus: unlike reddit and slashdot et all HN doesnt care if it is a self-submission. I avoid self-submitting elsewhere but deliberately take time to do so here. If it's not a popular article it will die quietly but no one will bitch about the factyou submitted it :) |

On Hacker News you can submit your own articles simply because the community really does take the time to judge whether or not the article is any good.
I've received some really helpful feedback and suggestions from Hacker News members, and that is what I like most.
