Hacker News Reader

Ok, but please don't post unsubstantive comments to Hacker News.

It is a substantive comment about the presentation of the subject matter.

I see comments on how articles or websites are presented all the time, didn't realize it was disallowed. Apologies.

Thanks—appreciated.

In college I took a reading class for quantum computation .

The thing I learned about reading anything is reading the abstract and the ending and then reading the middle part if you find it interesting.

To be fair, judging by the title this is indeed a personal interest story. (Edit: It is another thing that way too many popular articles disguise themselves as personal stories as though assuming that more readers will be attracted to a tabloid kind of piece than to the subject itself; the problem may be that most subjects are old and generally not interesting any more, whereas new personal stories appear every day!)
