FYI, towardsdatascience has been banned on HN since about 2020 due to its general spamminess: https://news.ycombinator.com/from?site=towardsdatascience.co... (turn on "showdead" in your settings if you don't know what I mean). I would recommend using a more reputable platform for any future blog posts. Also, I would recommend making such posts about something other than the TurboQuant debacle. People who deeply care about quantization algorithms have probably mostly heard about it by now, and everyone else was only interested in the first place because of the misplaced hype. Putting additional effort into setting the record straight is unlikely to achieve much more than you already did.
