Re:Rewriting Reddit (2005) by rmc on Tuesday October 28, 2014 @07:10AM (#8520352)
The fact that HN is a site that performs a function very similar to Reddit, and happens to be written in a dialect of Lisp is completely coincidental :-D (unless there has been some comment by pg about his motivations for making HN that I missed, but I kind of doubt it).

I believe pg stated that HN was supposed to be what reddit was originally.

There are no comments on this comment yet.
