Or even to get attention, if it's a relevant blog post. It's not like submitting your blog post is gaming the system or something. If anybody can understand the need for a basic level of self-promotion, it must be the HN crowd.

Yeah. You're both right. That's a really crappy point to make. On reflection, I'd self submit too. While I still dislike the article, it is not only fine, it's probably required that one self-submit their work around.

Or set up a series of shill accounts to... oh nevermind. Self submitting is probably better.
