Too few sampled comments (2) to say how often HN recommends it.?

Why HN links it

A Vim-focused blog by the author of vim-nerdtree, linked for a post on customising the vim-airline statusline. HN commenters point to it as a resource and as a source of humour.

Summarised by Claude from a sample of 2 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
