It's typical HN fodder. It's low quality, but some don't upvote the article, they upvote the headline.

It's been 3 hours on one of the slower hours on HN. The algorithm is loosely engagement / time^2, so something that pops up at the right timing can stand out against really good news 14 hours ago.
