Too few sampled comments (1) to say how often HN recommends it.?

Why HN links it

The only comment quotes the author's bio, listing past ventures such as Jelly, ChangeThis, BarCamp NYC and The Daily Jolt. It appears in a thread about a marrow transplant and does not judge the writing.

What Hacker News says?

  1. Ignoring your horrific lack of tact and sensitivity: From http://amitgupta.com/ > In the past... I started Jelly, worked with Seth Godin to start ChangeThis, brought BarCamp to NYC, started a co-op called House 2.0, contributed to a WSJ best-seller with Malcolm Gladwell, Guy Kawasaki and others, and started a venture-backed company called The Daily Jolt while in college. I enjoy camping.
