Why doesn't the headline read "Instacart (YC S12)"?

  I would like to see this corrected.

  Maybe the (YC [SW]\d{2}) is good news only ?

  It's only used for positive news

    And the mods remove it if it's posted on negative news. Wait, you thought HackerNews was impartial? Brb getting banned and blacklisted.

  Unless the mods add the YC tag posthumously to posts that forget it, it is the mistake of the original poster

    “Most people” surely doesn’t apply here. I’d never heard of them, much less knew they were YC.

  It should be automatically added to the name of any YC company. A browser extension could do it.
