Yes, this is professional writing, which a lot of people pay for, because they appreciate his frequently very-insightful analysis. The intro paragraph is basically an ad because the free articles drive subscriptions for the paid ones. If you can't get past that, move on.

>"if you can't get past that, move on." What a nonsense attempt to shut down valid criticism. If you can't "get past" the fact that Hacker News enables comments, move on.

He uses ", though," four separate times in a single post. Is that by design, because it's a free article?
