My personal favorite passage (no comment on HN's favorite obsessions at all)
"GUIs are useful. Spell-checkers are useful. I’m glad that people are working on new kinds of bouncing icons because they believe that humanity has solved cancer and homelessness and now lives in a consequence-free world of immersive sprites. That’s exciting, and I wish that I could join those people in the 27th century."

I am always amused by the fact that Sam Hurst, who invented the touch screen, did more for usability than hundred of thousands of people in UX.
It is really shocking... shocking... that people in fast food haven't solved world hunger.
Wait are you comparing people who don't work to solve world hunger with people who work to solve usability?
