I like how he discusses the importance of building credibility, but in his article he gives nothing to tell me why I should listen to his advice or why his advice might help any one do well in their career.

That's not his problem. He is not in the position of looking for a job or other employment, so he is not required to provide evidence that what he says is correct, useful, or of value.

Instead, he is offering advice, and it's up to you to assess it. It is therefore your job to investigate his credibility.

I agree with ColinWright. Its not he who put it on HackerNews.
