More than happy for you to answer as well - I respect your opinion on this topic.
P.S. - don't really appreciate the snarky "you should do some answering"... as a fellow busy professional, I'm answering when I have the time to do so.
It wasn't snarky, more that if you're going to do an AmA that kind of puts the ball in your court and you really should use the opportunity because if you don't have time now then it might be better to do this as a separate 'Ask HN' or something to that effect.
This subject is very dear to a lot of the HN crowd and of course you as the initiator of that process should get the first shot at answering these questions, they are all super relevant and very practical. You might even want to do a formal write-up of the answers you get in a blog post.
