Well then it's kindof a worthless endorsement, isn't it...?

Yes. Not sure why this was posted here. a16z of course has plenty of good and HN-relevant content, but this doesn't look like it.
One could argue the investment represents a better endorsement than the blog article. Perhaps a redundant endorsement but certainly not worthless.
The investment itself is a meaningful business endorsement. However I said this article is a meaningless endorsement (given the major conflict of interest).
In fact, the "hype-factor" and unwillingness to describe in simple terms what the product is makes me more skeptical than I was to begin with.
