Any overflow effect on HN?

  I for one found HN through Reddit.

    Same. Given that HN was originally supposed to be part of Reddit, that's not surprising.

        I thought the story was that PG wanted his own subreddit where nobody could downvote, you said no, so he built HN (this is a paraphrasing of hazy memories) edit: If memory serves, Steve mentioned this offhand in a video interview I saw somewhere. I think this one, but I could be wrong. http://blog.hipmunk.com/mixergy-interview-with-steve-huffman-on-reddi http://blog.hipmunk.com/mixergy-interview-with-steve-huffman...
