At no point does she explicitly cite HN. The post is directed to all "hackers."

  Hence my use of the word imply. As in 'implicit' ... you know - the opposite of 'explicit'. I also believe she changed the title.

    I don't think there's anything implicitly linking the people in her article to HN, either. We don't have a monopoly on the word "hacker," after all.

      In fact, quite the opposite. HN's use of the word is the tag-along.
