Definitely not.

I just figured that since I submitted this article myself it would be pretty silly to stay out of the comments. Don't take it as a religious thing, I've cut down the time spent on HN by over 90%, I have lots more time to write about other stuff now and I have more time for the people around me. On top of that my out-of-band contacts with HN'ers seem to have only strengthened.

Win-win.

So quitting was partly a PR stunt? ;)

I think you are missing the point entirely.

But that's ok.

I beg to disagree, but that's okay too ;)
