I don't know who dang is, and I don't go on HN enough for it to really matter to me. I'm not really part of the HN culture, I just come here for the occasional new software that might be of interest to me. It's likely there's a lot of people in the same boat including the person you responded to.
- Kiro 10y agoThe topic is "Ask dang", which I think Reedx misread as "Ask HN". That's all I'm saying.
- joemi 10y agoNot sure why your comment's light grey, but dang is... a/the moderator or the guy who runs HN or? I know it's something like that, and I just tried to look it up so I could tell you definitively, but I can't seem to find it stated explicitly anywhere here. Seems fair that a casual site user wouldn't know, if I'm not even entirely certain, and I'm on here every day. edit: OK, I found https://blog.ycombinator.com/meet-the-people-taking-over-hacker-news https://blog.ycombinator.com/meet-the-people-taking-over-hac... which says he's "in charge of the HN community". (I kind of wish I didn't have to turn to a 2 year old blog post to see that stated.)
