Just to note:
Copyright, IP and trademark don't only apply when profit is involved.
I reserve judgement on the appropriateness of appropriating the Hacker News name---but please don't labor under the impression that you can use someone elses (c)/(r) as long as you aren't making money.
Aside from seeking permission---you really should add a footer stating you are not affiliated with Y Combinator etc etc.
