Fair enough. I took this post in bad faith as well after you went ahead and deleted your thread in http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3283447 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3283447 instead of replying to my comment. Yes, this post does have attribution but I still doubt whether you have the permission from the original author to copy entire content word for word in your blog. You usually need a license from the original author to do that kind of a thing. A better way to do this could be to quote only some interesting parts or only those parts from the original post against which you want to present a counterpoint. That might be reasonable as per "fair use".
