It is still writing: the last post was on 2026-03-13, and you can follow it by feed.
Too few sampled comments (1) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
Commenters link this blog for its posts on comonads, such as the claim that comonads are more like neighbourhoods. One comment jokingly cites the author's work alongside another comonad post.
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.
Code and ideas in computer science. And maybe a short story or two.

What Hacker News says?
Yes, and someone called Gabriella Gonzales happens to have a blog post on how objects are like comonads: https://www.haskellforall.com/2013/02/you-could-have-invente... And someone called Samuel the Bloggy Badger happens to have another blog posts on how comonads are really more like neighborhoods: https://gelisam.blogspot.com/2013/07/comonads-are-neighbourh... ...so it might all just be a scam!
