Whats up with InfoQ submissions on HN?

Question

Hey all,I noticed that practically no submissions from InfoQ.com on HN get any engagement at all. Almost no comments, no upvotes. And by looking at the search results there must be thousands of submissions.I read their stuff occasionally and find interesting things there from time to time. So Im wondering:Is InfoQ considered low-quality / low-standard? Why?

I read their stuff occasionally and find interesting things there from time to time.Given thousands of submissions, it might be seen as a low signal to noise ratio.A few years ago, I think there was more signal in what I saw on Hacker News...I remember that's where Rich Hickey talks showed up and made it to HN.

I ran a web crawler on infoq.com one time and got banned. Seemed like a pretty good website but now i just get 403 errors

Visiting the website, I immediately see "Oracle" and "Java".Seems like a pretty generic website about enterprise development. That's fine, but is unlikely to light a fire in the hearts of HN users.
