The submitted title ("The only thing that matters") was rewritten to be linkbait. That breaks more than one of HN's rules about titles. Please don't do that.

Edit: My apologies—it was the original title of the piece. However, I don't think we'll change it back. The title used by the reblogger is still less baity.

FWIW, the original title of the piece on Marc Andreesen's blog was "The only thing that matters":

The submitter probably remembered the piece, went hunting for it, and then submitted it under its original title rather than the reblogged version.

Good catch. Thanks!
