i just read that as mildly n00bish behaviour - he came to hacker news simply because the story was posted here and he wanted to make sure his posts were known to be from him.

FWIW his account is over a year old (though not very active).

It looks like the same thing that happened this time. Someone posted an article of his to HN, then he created an account here to comment.
