Hackers are curious people. We like to know about everything. This is not linux news per se, though probably one of the best places to hang around if you're interested in that. I hope you can have faith in the community and take a step back to look at how active and amazing it is compared to what's out there.
The article isn't just about "disability issues". It's about perverse incentives, which certainly falls in the "intellectual curiosity" category. Also it's interesting for its description of a community that might have only 1 sit-down job!
Probably because the former article feels relevant to a wider audience here than something about GCC does. There are probably more Americans than C developers on HN.
As sp332 says, some comments there are interesting and can be applied to start ups - 'be careful with incentives' is true, and incentives are a tricky problem that haven't really been solved yet. Partly because exposing the system to the public is a fuzzing that you can#t really do before launch.
