> Are you telling the management of this outfit never looked into this phenomena? To counter, I think that HN is being used as a testcase to shove techbro and VC ideology across all of tech. And secondly, its some of the most potent tech market research. Its a textsearch goldmine. I believe YC knew what they were doing, and intentionally chose this course of action. I'm guessing you're not in the VC or founder club. I only found about that https://github.com/minimaxir/hacker-news-undocumented https://github.com/minimaxir/hacker-news-undocumented > Additionally, founders of YC companies see each other's usernames show up in orange, which — although not an explicit benefit — does allow fellow YC founders to immediately identify one another in discussions. Even with the significant bias here, I still read it. I also read lobsters as well, which is here minus techbro insanity.
