No he meant “being the author of an article".

This is being downvoted, but plausible. Many on HN have commented on the phenomenon of how the author of the article always manages to chime in, much more frequently than somewhere like Reddit despite the relatively tiny userbase of HN. Maybe it's more welcoming here?

Not sure if I'm defending someone who is joking or not, but I would be interested to know how people come across their own articles on here (along with the more obvious question re: these Hong Kong companies).

You might see a spike in traffic with a HN referrer or a friend my tell you “hey, saw your article on HN”

I have had friends comment privately on my comments on HN.
