Meet the People Taking over Hacker News
One of the things I admire most about PG is that everything he creates seem like extensions of his mind. He, more than anyone else I've ever met, seems to take life as a genuine exploration: not just of the world, but of himself.It's kind of sad to see him "sign of" HN and YC so quickly and without fuss. Part of me wants a grander send-off, with commemorations, "look backs", speeches etc. He certainly would deserve this, though I doubt he'd want it.But it's not really that sad, because each act of his life's play has been greater than the last. Having been so inspired by what he's done so far, I can only imagine what comes next.Thanks PG for Hacker News and Y-combinator .. both have changed the world for the better. Also, thanks for handing them off to such awesome hackers, who will certainly carry them on and up.
