Ugh. This is exactly the kind of commentary that Winer (http://www.scripting.com/stories/2008/03/30/proofThatTheEndI...) and BrandomM (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=149887) and myself are fed up with.

Perhaps I'll write a blog post called Matt Maroon's Trolling Continues to Boggle the Minds.

Interesting. Is this a DH1 response or a DH2 response? (http://www.paulgraham.com/disagree.html) Maroon seems to inspire lots of highly charged responses, both positive and negative. But it seems that most of these stem from his acerbic and slightly glib writing style. His biggest critics are critics of his tone, I think. Not critics of actual content.

How long are we going to have to put up with the ridiculous labeling of every post. If you like Paul's article, fine, use it as your own frame of reference. But please don't litter News YC with your analysis of what is DH1 and what is DH2.

DH-1: Labeling other people's arguments with DH levels.
