I only recently started visiting hacker news more often than slashdot. I love slashdot because of the interesting discussions. I think the comments on slashdot are still the best. But the problem that started to annoy me more and more is the articles themselves, which are often 3 days late, often too political, often plain advertising, and sometimes have a summary including something everyone knows like "WWW, which means World Wide Web", baffling the commentators.
And that's why I like hacker news now: more technical, less political.
