How about an open-source hacker news? Thereby destroying the same community that helped you to create it. What? He said "the problem must not have been solved before"

The Hacker News software IS open source.

  Not all of it

"Thereby destroying the same community that helped you to create it." Downvoted because it's silly to think that an open source implementation (regardless of whether there already was one or not) would destroy HN. As if it hasn't been done a million times before. It's the community, not the technology.

  But what if the (community of) hackers can actually modify the system during runtime, using same techniques as voting stories up/down to write the code?

    I've already feature-frozen v0.7, but I'm going to look into this as a plugin for 0.8 - potentially very cool idea.
