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

Why HN links it

Personal site of Andrey Tarantsov, whose top post calls whitepapers 'a shitload of crap'. The one comment objects to the author's tweets and how that would land for job candidates, not to the writing itself.

Summarised by Claude from a sample of 1 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

What Hacker News says?

  1. No offense, but visiting Andrey's website and reading the top post here: http://tarantsov.com/ kind of rubbed me the wrong way. First he states that whitepapers are a 'shitload of crap' and then he has 'NIGGAS' in his most recent tweets. Now imagine you are a black grad student in CS -- not the most warm welcome. You might want to think about endorsing his personal site on your startup page.
