I think it's just you associating it with porn. I thought of github.
Grubhub, too. Methinks GP is revealing more about themself than they realize.

Lol, I don't like pornhub or any of the big sites. Too much incest, non-consensual scenarios, and making woman performers dress or appear too young.
I think I saw the story about pornhub and Texas on HN before I made that comment. So it was somewhat fresh in my mind.

What about youSOMETHING.com and SOMETHINGtube.com ? There is youtube? But what about youporn and redtube!?!?
There are a lot more SOMETHINGhub sites that are not-porn (ex: scihub, github) than the one pornhub site.
Does anyone on HN now have much experience with weather balloons? How much preparation do you need to do to launch? I assume you'd have to inform the relevant authorities, has that process become more onerous after the Chinese balloon incident? What is a launch like? How long after launch do you get usable data?
Edited to add: a flagged comment mentioned GitHub. I guess I always think of Git first, and "hub" barely registers. Pornhub somehow is the opposite for me. It may have been intended as an insult, but that comment made me think, thank you random Internet person.
