Jumped the shark posts have jumped the shark.
From my perspective, there was an over-abundance of node.js articles on HN between 6 and 12 months ago. It got to the point where there was a huge backlash and since then there has been relatively minimal coverage of node.js. In other words, node has transitioned from its rapidly fluctuating transient state to its long-term steady state and articles like this just won't resonate with anyone anymore.
