Not sure why your comment&#x27;s light grey, but dang is... a&#x2F;the moderator or the guy who runs HN or? I know it&#x27;s something like that, and I just tried to look it up so I could tell you definitively, but I can&#x27;t seem to find it stated explicitly anywhere here. Seems fair that a casual site user wouldn&#x27;t know, if I&#x27;m not even entirely certain, and I&#x27;m on here every day.<p>edit: OK, I found <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;blog.ycombinator.com&#x2F;meet-the-people-taking-over-hacker-news" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;blog.ycombinator.com&#x2F;meet-the-people-taking-over-hac...</a> which says he&#x27;s &quot;in charge of the HN community&quot;. (I kind of wish I didn&#x27;t have to turn to a 2 year old blog post to see that stated.)
