Hacker News Reader

I'll pass on the newsletter signup. His writing is less than stellar; there are all kinds of fragment sentences which make the article difficult to read.

Maybe his other stuff isn't as bad.

... Nope. No other stuff. This is literally the only thing on the site and there are three "Join now!" boxes.

Based on the topic of his first post, I am sure we can expect many, many more to come.

And its a bit much, I don't mind the sign up in the story, but to top it off, full page sign up box.

Newsletter signups are such bullcrap. Especially the pop-over ones. They're the worst.

Also interesting to note, the comments.

It’s my pleasure!

Sign up for my newsletter and get some exclusive content + a weekly digest of everything I’ve written that week

Maybe it's the double overlay that requests it. You close the first one, then there it is again, then you close that one, and bam there it is once more within the content. However I am sure it is working somehow.

oh good, someone else noticed... I thought it was just me.
