Too few sampled comments (1) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
HN readers link this personal blog for its geeky side, including an electronic wedding invitation that one commenter calls a favourite. The commenter says the rest of the site is quite something.
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.
My name is Dr Benjamin Blundell. I make things with computers.
What Hacker News says?
Benjamin seems to be a bona fide geek, and the rest of his website is quite something. The [electronic wedding invitation]( https://benjamin.computer/posts/2016-11-29-WeddingInvite.htm... ) is another favorite of mine. I don't think he is trolling, no.
