Ché zOlive's personal blog at ochafik.com covers programming and design. Since 2011, 5 different Hacker News readers have linked it 5 times, most often “OpenSCAD 3D rendering just got an order of magnitude faster”. The last post was in 2022, but the archive is still widely read.
Too few sampled comments (2) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
HN commenters link this blog for its post on OpenSCAD's new fast-csg library, which they say makes complex CAD compiles take seconds rather than hours. The comments cite the post as a source.

What Hacker News says?
Fyi the latest builds of OpenSCAD have a new fast-csg library. My compiling never takes more then a minute, usually it's less than a second. Waiting over an hour to compile a CAD drawing seems untenable to me. https://ochafik.com/jekyll/update/2022/02/09/openscad-fast-c...
