Navel gazers? or egomaniacs? pretentious arseholes? or gormless twats?

For god's sake, what is this site and why the hell does it get articles posted to HN so often? Technology isn't interesting unless you're interested in technology - trying to stir up interest in the industry by constantly waffling on about the peripheral bullshit that is part of any business as if it's some kind of unique experience for the 'tech sphere' is just utter bullshit.

It's embarassing to our industry that development is turning into a geek verion of E! or some bullshit.
