Have you read the papers? Might be they're good, but rejected for dumb/annoying reasons.

Exagerating about these things is a personality trait, not a mental illness.

Maybe the papers are totally crank, but as I said, not immediately apparant


Not immediately apparent, but as I said, going through their HN submissions and Twitter, it is apparent. Many upvotes and other replies to their comments in the past few months agree.


It's not apparent to me.

HN users tend to think similarly to each other and are often wrong.
