I don't think I was twisting your words?

Or was the "because" not meant to indicate that you're answering the question, were you instead using it as a different rhetorical device? I suppose that could make sense. I think it could've been written a bit more clearly. I really wasn't trying to twist your words.

Because it is now all the hype, and sites like HN is where the more technically minded folks usually hang around.

So more about the hype in itself and less about HN specifically.

I guess I could have added that part as well.

So yeah, I guess I got a bad reply there, sorry about that.
