I'm not convinced that a comment on Hacker News is going to lead to any noticeable financial benefit for the poster's company, and by proxy, the poster himself.
Furthermore, I find your comment extremely suspect, considering you also have a top-level comment [1] in this thread that basically amounts to "guys, guys... there's no reason to worry about this bill!"
If anyone's motives should be questioned, it's you.
It's pretty standard around here for people to disclose their affiliations with $product when {commenting about|recommending|suggesting} $product, regardless of any (financial or other) benefit. Hardly a day goes by when I'm reading comments about some $product that I don't encounter one that includes "Disclosure: I'm a developer for $product".
