Zvi Band's personal blog at zviband.com covers career and startups. Since 2007, 3 different Hacker News readers have linked it 7 times. The last post was in 2020, but the archive is still widely read.
Too few sampled comments (1) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
HN readers link Zvi Band's 2007 post "Getting in the zone", which is about the rap-driven focus the author describes. It is cited in a music thread, and the comment does not assess 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.
The first thing most people ask me is how to pronounce my name. Here you go (more accurately, though, it would be this way) - but I’m not picky. Anything with a Z or an S in it I'll respond to. I'm a father, partner, founder, software developer, coach, author, hot sauce snob, and more
What Hacker News says?
Even thought I don't listen to rap that much, Method Man works for me. I find rap like that, where it's just a constant flow of lyrics and rhymes, really gets me going. http://zviband.com/2007/09/30/getting-in-the-zone/
