What's the problem with Kickstarter posts, as long as the project being promoted is technically interesting?
If posting links to interesting technical projects that try to gain mindshare with an eye on eventual VC backing is appropriate to HN (and that seems a fairly uncontroversial proposition to me), why would posting links to interesting technical projects that try to gain mindshare with an eye on kickstarter backing NOT be appropriate?
