The links are a sentence fragment describing the conclusion, and you linked a site that I am just proactive enough to mouse over and see the convenient name in the bar at the bottom of the webpage without summarizing it? Hmm, I’d link to a programming blog that gets more in-depth about user lazyness instead of a less wrong post, is the inbred community links what’s wrong?
No, it was simply that I criticized Kaj_Sotala for posting links without summarizing by posting a link I didn’t summarize. You’re right that it’s not as big a deal for people familiar with the post from the title, but...
(p.s. the “inconvenient” link describes how a trivial inconvenience—like finding an internet proxy or sending an email before posting—can act quite effectively as a major barrier to an action. Implied is that following the links to see what Kaj_Sotala is reviewing positively is a similar inconvenience, and therefore might lead to the post being unfairly ignored.)
