I don't know what happened to this website but stuff like this keeps hitting the front page more and more often despite having close to zero value. It feels like SEO spam to me.

Yes, the bad link given here doesn't do the content justice, whatever your opinion would be. It would've been better to link to one of the author's articles on the Nerd Reich website (or something more substantive like his newsletter content). I'm assuming you're talking about the link itself as opposed to the content of the book or topic in general.
"Please don't post insinuations about astroturfing, shilling, brigading, foreign agents, and the like. It degrades discussion and is usually mistaken. If you're worried about abuse, email hn@ycombinator.com and we'll look at the data." https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46068363
Except there's nothing to discuss because the book is not released. Is HN about "awareness" now? Why not come back in 2026 when the book is actually released and people can actually talk about the contents of the book?
This is not a Show HN, just a link. Users engage if they want, and a lot of them wanted.
