What Hacker News says?

  1. Why backstabbing? Is that really necessary? Sure, politics and hard work, and even hustling (as used by Steven Corona here: http://stevecorona.com/college-was-my-biggest-mistake , rather than the "semi-legal activities" pop definition) I just don't see backstabbing as a necessary (or even effective) means to accomplish an end, no matter how noble the end may be.
