  Dang and co. You can read his comment history for explanations if you're curious, using https://hn.algolia.com/ https://hn.algolia.com/ to search. It's not nefarious as is implied here, but it's not totally "organic".

  The HN Algorithm, Dang, PG, and the HN users.

    If you include software, mods, and community, that's the totality of the system, in which case I don't think you can call it manipulation; can the system manipulate itself? But it's not clear to me what the GP meant by that word.
