I'm repeatedly amazed by what makes it to the front page on HN. I'm not judging, really I'm not, but this is the first post on a blog (so, basically unknown) and is essentially two paragraphs asking "why is it so hard to not stare at the internet all day?" I'm stoked for the author to be getting some HN love, but what about this deserves such an esteemed placement on HN??? It's literally the same question every single person is asking and has probably posted a thousand times before.
As do I. I'm just genuinely curious how this caught people's eye. There's no way through the sea of "content" that these two paras could stick out without an artificial boost.
