Not even mentioning Schwartz was a huge indicator that this is a bullshit paid-for story from Reddit/Spez. Absolutely NOBODY who would bring up the founding of Reddit without mentioning Schwartz unless they were paid not to. This is a hack piece from a paid shill.

NYT don't do "paid" stories.

However, the journalism is superficial (lazy) and seems to skim across the surface. This was written by someone who doesn't understand the tech -- so they interviewed someone pro (Spez) and someone con (the super mod) -- did some ping pong with quotes and TADA! An article!

Reporter: To sum up, this expert representing the major Meteorological associations says it is currently raining. And this expert from the "Crack Pot Society" says it isn't. I have a window right next to me and....both sides make good points so you'll have to decide for yourself.
