Hacker News Reader

Same. I can read quickly, and when suits me. Video I have to be sat at a computer paying attention which is time I can use for other things, and go at their speed.

The quick must be ironic. His articles are insanely long, could be an hour read sometimes for a slow reader. Each post is a booklet long if it were put on paper.

Not a criticism. I like long text too. That would be extremely boring in a 30 minutes video though.

I think it's long because writing a short letter is harder, as the joke goes.

But a video covering that would be 30 minutes. I can read it in a lot less. Having been through academia, you do after all learn to read quickly :-)
