Why HN links it
HN readers link this personal blog for a 2022 post on writing math with Hugo. The only comment points to that post for more details and says client-side rendering works fine for a simple blog.
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?

HN discussionSure, there's certainly interest in doing this. See this post for more details: https://misha.brukman.net/blog/2022/04/writing-math-with-hug... (I'm not the author of this post) Client-side rendering works well enough for me, and has been for years (as a visitor). I don't see a benefit to integrate a custom Hugo patch to get server-side rendering for my simple personal blog.
