He just does this with all his blog posts, don't overthink it. The tech industry is full of people with unexpected quirks.

We need more of this, not less. This is Hacker News. He gave us exactly what we need to know to exactly replicate his results.

		I think it feels a little bit of an Ad for the hardware, especially the way he describes the case, telling you the exact model and how spacious it is. Bit sus but perhaps he is being OVERLY detailed and just likes telling you he has a bunch of CPU's that are well cooled in a case with two big ugly fans on the front (not into that look at all.) Though I can totally understand, geeky people love details. I have a habit of getting way too detailed in my writings here. So I then spend most of the time editing it down to be as clear and brief as possible. I refuse to use an LLM for my own thoughts.

		That's how I took it too. You always provide hardware information when publishing any data set that takes a long time to compile.
