I posted the LN link an hour ago but it didn't allow comments, not sure what happened:

Ok, we'll merge the comments thither, since you had the original source, in keeping with the site guidelines:

Submitters: "Please submit the original source. If a post reports on something found on another site, submit the latter." - https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

Somebody flagged it, which turned off the ability to comment. (I didn't know comments could be turned off on articles directly.)

I just "vouched" for it and the comment ability came back.

dang: Seems like this post should point to candiddevmike's.

No one flagged it; rather linkedin.com is banned on HN because it has been the source of too many low-quality posts and too much promotional behavior.
Oh wow, TIL. Thanks, dang.
(I’ve emailed a link to this thread of comments to the HN mods, using the footer contact link, so that they see and respond to this discussion.)
Fixed now. Thanks!
