Don't forget also the "yet another HN karma or attaboy builder".
(Having spent years doing minor little things that nobody ever would care to hear about (back in the day) I can of course fully understand the positive aspects of the mental process. You learn something and perhaps people leave comments that make you feel good which spurs you on to do better things.)
Haha, that certainly is not the case. I made a tool, found it useful, a few of my other friends find it useful, so I posted it.
Some people voted it up, I can't control that. I really could care less about karma, in fact, the critical comments (except yours) have been very useful and worth the post.
