What's the tl;dr?
Samsung, Goldstar and other Korean cos are on the train. In Samsung, you actually have to get a TRIZ certificate as a prerequisite for promotion above a certain level in their engineering units.
Quick ddg’ing found this Forbes article on how Samsung uses TRIZ: https://www.forbes.com/sites/haydnshaughnessy/2013/03/07/why...
They also mentioned that Intel might be using it, too.
About TRIZ in Samsung and Korean cos, I learned that from Samsung pals I met. I've been all across Asia during the time when OEM electronics was booming: Vietnam, Taiwan, China, Singapore, SK, you name it.
Seriously, why do people brag about "I don't want to skim a medium-length article"? I don't read many articles, too, but I wouldn't go around announcing it to the world and demanding a wrong because too short summary.
When you're the first half of your life, a part of your brain is secretly convinced that you're immortal and that you therefore have all the time in the world. With that state of mind, reading random articles in depth seems like no big deal.
At a certain point (around your mid-30's, usually), a switch flips in your head and you start to realize your time is very much finite.
This is when TL;DR's start to matter a great deal because they help you decide where and how much of your time to invest in random new things.
I don't presume to make a solid guess which part of your life you're in, but I'd say your comment just tilted the odds towards the first half.
I would be more understanding if the article were convoluted, or if it were a video. But this is text, easily understood (not "in the category of endofunctors" nonsense), and people still parade around their unwillingness to click on the submission. I find that offensive.
Triaging submissions into "interests me" and "does not interest" me is something you should be able to do without outside help, in the usual case.
This is so funny when people procrastinating on hn write how valuable their time is.
