It's actually surprising how terrible the front page articles are on a weekend. Among the trash today are this tired rehash of useless proverbs, a PDF presentation of UNIX commands, and a pop psychology article from the LA Times.

I had not read these proverbs before and found some real insight to them and points I had not considered.

I think you're committing a sort of broken-window fallacy. You're seeing what is there, and thinking it's alright. I'm seeing what's not there, and thinking it could be so much better.

OK, thanks.

To make it constructive can you provide a brief summary of what you think is missing?

Is it a case of simply no good stuff being available to vote up, or good stuff not getting any votes? If the latter, point them out. If the former... well, it happens.

...and here is a VC fund manager proverb:

"On my left side nothing is right.

And on my right side nothing is left".
