News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

For the exact same reason people post links to other things, it's interesting. It's always been more "hacker" than "news" here.

Incidentally, check out this wacky alien-looking worm that exhibits bioluminescence even though it lives its entire life inside of a tube, so there is no one to perceive it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaetopterus

HN is not Reddit. We like comments that add information and dislike comments that only express brief reactions, jokes, etc. Keeps the signal to noise ratio high.

That was neat, though it does mention there are some other creatures that can choose to share the tube and the research about it may be lacking in smaller companion life (bacteria or other lifeforms).

Is this worm all over the world or there's a certain climate it can live on. Wikipedia doesn't expand on it.
