Just your average pablum content designed to be mildly interesting to the general public, fill time/space & attract subscribers. Aka "The News", re-reported by each "news" org for their own viewers. Started pretty much after the first newspaper.
The meta part I find funny is that it's on HN, this supposed bastion of articles "interesting to hackers" or whatever. This is why I like Reddit subs... I can just subscribe to the general topics or themes I want to hear about and skip the pablum
