Isn't the author's point that 'Y Combinator' is the brand, and 'Hacker' is just (edit: highly effective!) marketing?

In fact, it used to be called 'Startup News'!

I would argue that the vast majority of people on here have very little interest in YC. I'm here for the interesting content and people.

Therefore there are two brands (in my humble opinion).
