I can't view your legal terms without agreeing to your legal terms.

If you click outside the modal it'll dismiss it. Since that's not clicking OK to agree to the legal terms, it's not accepting them.

I am assuming you're a friendly HN reader offering a workaround, and not the site's dev. Is that correct?

Awesome. I liked the quick tutorial, which highlights relevant parts of the site while showing tips.

Applying the same logic: "Google shouldn't have built their search engine because Alta Vista and Yahoo got in the game much before them."

It is nice of you to point out an existing product which is similar. But isn't it better to encourage (or provide constructive criticism) rather than dissuade this?
