Why flat design just doesn't stack up
Just skip the crap posts, and you're good.
Im highly moderated to the point of killing users voices.
Politically selfish when it comes to talking about YCombinator. (Politics is alright, as long as YCombinator is doing it)

Although, tbh, catching the right trend floats alot of startups is why that kind of content matters...
I mean that is really how GitHub 'won' the whole git hosting thing, wasn't it?
No, it's awful. But it's the only client side scripting language out there, and Web guys love to pretend they're just as skilled as systems guys. They take concepts that systems programmers discovered 30 years ago, put a fancy name on it and do it worse.
Funny, but that's exactly what people were saying about Java programmers in the 90's. Now, the Java ecosystem is full of useful libraries and well optimized systems. It's become the default language for implementing big business systems. I wonder if Javascript won't simply follow the same course?
EDIT: I seem to have struck a nerve. Please read this at face value and not as some kind of snark. What I say is factually true. There are plenty of horrible things written in Java, but eventually, that becomes true of any language, and there are tons of great things written in it. It's no accident that HFT is written in Java nowadays. Also no accident that Clojure and Scala are written on top of it.

They may make fun of this, but implementing another 2048 clone has helped me become a bootstrapped digital nomad with seed funding, as well as helping me to learn Ruby, node.js, mongodb, AngularJS (including Providers and Factories), while simultaneously embracing JSON to double my sales by 2x within just a couple of days at a recent hackathon.

This one cracked me up.
I've noticed a welcome relief from JS posts lately, not to mention politics. The new moderation system is working well from my perspective.
Trying so hard not to lol at work...
OK, seriously, it should be /g/ instead of 4chan.

Made me laugh!
I thought this was hilarious. Until I realized it's a real thing. http://itsbrent.net/2013/03/hacking-my-garage-with-a-raspber...
I'm done with the internet.

I'm pretty sure this is directly opposed to reality.

Incidentally, this actually has been experience (to be clear, I mean playing it, not coding it).
