Anyone can get karma on HN by submitting links. Some people farm karma by posting links to words on Wikipedia. The bar to obtaining karma is very low in my opinion.

99.9% of my karma is from comments, hardly any of the links I post get more than 2-5 points. Likely I'm just really boring.

I see you submitted one that affects a number of people and it caught their attention. Quite a few Googlers here Most of my submissions get the same 2-5 points, I just do it almost every day as part of a routine.
