A direct link to the LinkedIn post instead: https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7160295...

I know LinkedIn is bad but a link to Twitter that links to LinkedIn is worse.

I posted the LN link an hour ago but it didn't allow comments, not sure what happened:

Somebody flagged it, which turned off the ability to comment. (I didn't know comments could be turned off on articles directly.)

I just "vouched" for it and the comment ability came back.

dang: Seems like this post should point to candiddevmike's.

(I’ve emailed a link to this thread of comments to the HN mods, using the footer contact link, so that they see and respond to this discussion.)

Fixed now. Thanks!

No one flagged it; rather linkedin.com is banned on HN because it has been the source of too many low-quality posts and too much promotional behavior.

Oh wow, TIL. Thanks, dang.

Ok, we'll merge the comments thither, since you had the original source, in keeping with the site guidelines:
