Normally that has a "please disable your ad blocker to help this blog be self-sustaining or donate on patreon" message. But Hacker News users spew so much venom and vitriol (see OP in this thread) that I am a bit more pointed and blunt with the nag messages. Going by the numbers of hits vs as impressions my hypothesis is that the biggest assholes block ads.
I did the math for last year and somehow my blog actually made a small profit! It's nowhere near enough to make me want to quit my dayjob, but it's at least enough that the excess can pay for all my video game purchases. I need to finish that article detailing the blog's finances for 2022.
