I do agree that the TIL posts are an attempted compromise at finding value in shorter posts. Just because a post is short doesn't necessarily translate to poor quality (those they can.) I tend to fall in the same mode of thought with @thecryptofiend that I need to see something personal added in the mix. If I feel that it was simply a copy/pasted paragraph or two, then there isn't that personal touch that is necessary to make it stand out from what that original author had done. Personally that concept of added value (which personalizing accomplishes in my eyes) is how I tend to 'judge' borderline posts.
