- minimaxir 9y agoThis is an unusual case where you have to click the article to see that it’s written by Patrick, though.
- 1123581321 9y agoI knew it would be him based on the title and the domain. Perhaps others thought similarly.
- Isamu 9y agoIndeed, it was the first thing I thought.
- dahdum 9y agoAtlas / Patrick are synonymous in my mind, and his stuff is always worth a read imho.
- gknoy 9y agoI'll admit that I do that sometimes -- Patrick's blog over the years has been full of gems that are well written, easy to read, and make me feel like I could put into action were I braver / had better ideas / insert-excuse-for-not-starting-something-here. They were some of the best things I read when I first learned about HN, so I tend to value them more highly. Because HN saves the list of things you've upvoted, I will at times upvote things that I know Patrick has written because I know it will be a good thing to read when I later get a chance.
