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

Why HN links it

The only comment is a self-promotion for a Twitter bot the commenter made after finding this site, which generates NSA-style hostnames. No comment says anything about the writing.

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.

  1. After finding a website from https://cternus.net/ Christian Ternus, I decided to mess around and make a Twitter bot that generates hostnames that are NSA inspired. Check it out, and also follows on the account would be greatly appreciated <3
