(Can I post a completely irrelevant comment about something that just baffled me? I submitted this question 40 minutes ago. Now I went to StackOverflow and it just awarded me the gold badge of 'Publicist', meaning that this link has been visited by 1000 unique IP addresses! I had this question open in another tab and it's true: it had 4950 views (with the best answer having 90 up-votes) when I submitted it, and now it has more than 6450 (best answer: 115 votes)! I honestly didn't know there were so many HNers... I always thought HN was a relatively small community.)
Sorry if it's not relevant, but I thought it might be interesting to others.
