They posted previously on YN that they too were caught offguard. The 'tips' weren't specific to Raycast, they've been going on for a while and Raycast was just one product it decided to feature now.

I'm sure they sold this ad space at a premium and someone over there thought it was a brilliant idea. How else would it have happened?
