Personally why I posted this: loved the essays when they came out. And I know many people have not read them. More than that, even many people here on HN had never heard of the guy or don't know his mindset. Those essays open up a lot of who he was.
Thanks for posting them. I admire Aaron's work very much but will admit to not knowing of everything that he has written. I guess I don't have the photographic memory like the parent commenter
