the initial announcement of Musks twitter offer and attendant gloating / revulsion got many thousands of comments and it is actually quite interesting that the terminal side of this giant event has come through HN like a whisper.

And HN, like CNBC, exists mainly as part of a giant financial hype machine which is interesting in the same way that gravity or death is interesting. The whole tech world revolves around the price of things - your attention, clicks, term sheets, RSUs, etc. Cramer is not below HN, you are not above Cramer just because you don't perform on camera. We are all part of this machine.
