This article adds nothing to the conversation and is poorly edited to boot. The author thinks it's bad that this happened and he rants about it for 10-or-so paragraphs. It's not worth reading, let alone having on the front page of HN.
Well, it's not actually an article, it's just a summary of the story. I would appreciate your detailed feedback and will be happy to edit post and add something to it that you find valuable.
