Clicking on the article on that site gets me back to the HN link.

I guess that's just a landing page with links to articles he wrote, but doesn't host himself? Strange.

And it really is ugly right now with the spotted background and slightly rotated links.

Is he aiming for the "I just discovered a new feature and so need to use it" vibe? Like when someone makes a PowerPoint presentation and now uses the completely over the top transitions across slides?

But design is subjective, and if you're doing something in your free time, you better enjoy it! So if he has fun making that ugly thing, great ( • ‿ • )

the background looks a lot like an old geocities page to me so I have to assume it's a fashion choice
