Seems curious you only started commenting a few years ago. What changed?
Not him, but I started because I searched for a place to find news about software engineering, and HN felt like it was more for professionals which I like. I also visit and contribute to Reddit and read substack and some weekly newsletters too.
Good question that I don't have an exact answer to, but I was 15 years younger and had less to contribute in 2010. I was still in the middle of college at that point
As someone with an 18 yr old account here, this site turned into engineering LARPing much farther back than 2 years ago.
