Howard Mao's personal blog at zhehaomao.com covers hardware and programming. Since 2012, 4 different Hacker News readers have linked it 10 times, most often “Hardware Acceleration of Key-Value Stores [pdf]”. The last post was in 2014, but the archive is still widely read.
Too few sampled comments (1) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
HN commenters link Howard Mao's academic writing on FPGA hardware acceleration, including a paper on memcached acceleration on FPGA. The comment gives no judgement of 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.

What Hacker News says?
The DE1-SoC is definitely worth it for the ARM HPS. A hard processor which can run Linux attached to an FPGA is a very powerful combination. Check out http://zhehaomao.com/project/2014/01/02/fpga-series.html for examples of stuff you can do with it.
