A tidy way to violate HNs "assume good faith, don't cross examine" rule.

And outrage at the unimpressed is.. a curious standard for a sponsored blogger.

Ah yes, because the hyperlink bypasses the homepage, none of this is promotion.

Sponsored blogs and paid newsletters are after all, notoriously poor at subsisting on silence :)
