I would suggest not to worry about it, I had the briefest look and it seems some people thought it was magic you could guess or research what was important about a certain date. Sure some things can give away a wannabe clever player while they're using socks, which most people might not notice. Too many amateurs though, trip over mere coincidences and try to apply phraseology without understanding that when people talk / chat online, they'll often pick up other words or phrases, or fail to grasp two or more people have unwittingly shared behaviours from being part of similar work spaces or forums they've been part of. Sometimes it is just pure coincidence. (Only 2 weeks ago or so I used a oft not used phrase in my vocabulary replying to someone's apparently vacant site ... blown away when someone else provided a different link to the same and there's that same phrase being used.) I also doubt HN really nails identifying data for logging each account given the anonymous nature of account setup, but even so, I'd assume most people here would understand to use a proxy at the very least, so there's no good going down that path requesting staff confirm different IPs.
