Not at all, I would bet that it was written in response to my post.

  Not one to respond to things like this, but in this case the post was written a little less than 2 weeks ago [0]. [0] https://gist.github.com/rezan/b744c513045ea97e87ab/revisions https://gist.github.com/rezan/b744c513045ea97e87ab/revisions

  I think you should consider an apology here. Firstly, I think the gist linked to by Reza demonstrates pretty effectively that they already had this post in the works before you published your piece on nginx. But secondly, I think you made a mistake jumping to the conclusion that they were ripping you off anyway: your piece was about image resizing, and the fact that the data was backed by an S3 bucket was pretty much incidental. Their piece was entirely about using VCL to securely generate signed URLs to proxy to private content hosted in an S3 bucket. These are very different use-cases. All of that aside, I think it's a little unrealistic to expect the makers of Varnish to link to an article that promotes replacing Varnish with nginx on their official company blog! I wasn't going to post this reply, but I actually really enjoyed your nginx article (and other articles on your site) and I'm also a fan of the Varnish Software blog - so I was sad to see you unjustly accuse other writers rather than spending your energy creating more excellent content of your own.
