Here's an exchange between jedberg[1] and author Sean Kelly about a previous incarnation of this microservices article (September 14, 2016):

And in that same thread, in another response, SK writes:

>"I do wish I had titled it better, as most people have (rightfully) dinged me on this one ;)" -- https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12508941

... and yet, here's another new article about microservices -- with another clickbait title. The subtitle then has the breathless, "Continue reading to find out why."

Serious non-snarky question to HN audience: do more than 50% really prefer this style of writing?

[1] I singled out jedberg's comment as significant because he discussed the costs and tradeoffs of microservices at 2 well-known companies (Reddit=no) (Netflix=yes). The interview transcript: https://scaleyourcode.com/interviews/interview/11
