The Atlantic is known for clickbait, low-quality articles that would possibly never get voted so many times on Hacker News, and beyond that, so many times in one day.
Yeah, but it's awfully general for HN. We've really been drifting heavily in the direction of "general news" and generic political / social stuff for some time now, which is unfortunate.
Personally, I'd like a lot less of that stuff, and more "How I implemented MQTT in Erlang on an rPi", etc. :-)
Definitely not trolling. The Atlantic may be well-regarded, but it's full of pseudo-science and feel-good news that doesn't seem on par with Hacker News' adherence to quality.
