What a crap title and article, which spends half its time bootlicking Mukesh Ambani and how he's so rich, when the second paragraph says:

> has shelled out $35 billion of the company’s money

I'm also tired of all these publications that brainlessly give credit for achievements to the CEO like those that suck Elon Musk off for things his engineers have done. Not that I should expect anything better than a journal named after Wall Street.

It really doesn’t bother me because he is the chairman, managing director and largest shareholder of the company in question. Leaders get credit for the things they ask their followers to do all the time. No one can actually accomplish anything significant without lots of help from other people.

Perhaps you have a valid point in there, but it's not ok to fulminate like this on HN, so can you please not? I feel like we asked you this many times before and then you fixed it, so it would be good not to backslide.

Out of topic, out of curiosity: Is one person behind this profile? Do multiple people share the login info?

During my years of HN usage, I don't remember ever seeing another username enforcing the rules, only yours.

Just me. It would feel a bit icky to have multiple persons behind the same handle.

As icebraining pointed out, sctb is the other moderator who posts publicly. https://news.ycombinator.com/posts?id=sctb.
