Title: I just saw a comment by pg reminding another commenter of the HN guidelines.<p>http://ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html<p>This seems like an opportune time to ask how I might implement the guidelines quoted below:<p>"What to Submit<p>"On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity.<p>"Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic."<p>I've read most of pg's essays<p>http://paulgraham.com/articles.html<p>over the years, so I have some sense of his intellectual interests, and I remember the very early phase of Reddit (which I think was seeded with participants by a bunch of personal friends of pg and the Reddit founders). But please inform me so I do better. I can see empirically which links and which "Ask HN" posts get upvoted the most, but which links and which Ask HN posts are the ones you would most like to see? What posts that gratify intellectual curiosity should there be more of?<p>Still learning at age fifty,
