I was intrigued as to how he is the almost always the first one to post something on nearly every news thread, 24 hours, around the clock. Wasn't aware curiosity was 'sad'.
Probably has notifications turned on. A short one-line post shouldn't be too hard to get in first, and besides, it's not like MacRumors is a 24 hour news site. It typically posts articles during normal business hours on weekdays unless there's a big event going on like WWDC or a product release.
