Yes, and I've spent a lot of time on HN over the years answering questions about Cloudflare. So, I think the story of our success on HN is a combination of content and commitment to the community (and a slap on the wrist from @dang for being overly aggressive posting blog.cloudflare.com links).

To what extent do you think the "Discuss on HN" CTA on your blog posts has helped? Every time I see that I think it's genius.
