News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Because generally, the person who makes the clickable link is the person affiliated with the project, would be my guess.

I generally don't pay much attention to usernames around here (or anywhere) -- and it'd be easy to see how one might jump to the conclusion that the 'clickable' provider was the same person who posted the OP.

Actually, in my experience most of the time the clickable link is not provided by the person submitting the item in the first place. It's a cause of constant, low-level irritation to me that people submit things like this and then don't make a clickable link in the comments. I don't understand why they don't, but they don't. It's almost as if they don't care.

Curious, and annoying.

Precisely the conclusion that I jumped to.
