You had me here. But I want to know where the top, featured, and new sections are. Where can I be recommended gists that are similar to those of users I subscribe to? Or are you trying to make this into the sort of imgur.com of stories on HN kind of thing?
Thanks for following up on this. Nothing irks me more than "Pt. 1" posts, never to hear from the OP again. As an undergraduate scheduled to be doing HFT systems development at a major bank this summer, I find these posts very useful!
The fact that anyone is talking about any of this speaks volumes about how skewed some people's priorities are. The author of this article comes across as a whiny bitch, and the author of the article in question comes across as a douche-bag. Can we get back to discussing meaningful topics?
Edit: great illustrations, too!
