Update: We decided to add names after all, including to this first one! This first Ask YC answer was from Kevin Hale.

We went back and forth about it. We ended up doing it this way for consistency's sake, since the questions are anonymized and different partners will be answering different ones. But this might change. I think it could make more sense for the partners to sign their names.
Yep! It was a really fun moment when I first told PG the name.
For now, the best place to send them is [email protected]. I think it will make sense to set up a dedicated HN Highlights submission address eventually!

It's more focused on the latter, but there is a "Hacker News Highlights" section that we'll probably update semi-regularly.
It was difficult to decide how to handle comments and whether to have them at all, so we opted to just leave them out for now. I like both of those ideas -- adding in a link to an article's analogous HN thread, and the official submit bot.
Thank you! Kevin Hale (https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=kevin) is the designer/developer. I love it too.

Fair point on the title -- perhaps I should have left it at "on to something." Will keep in mind for next time.

Hey, I'm the writer who wrote the second example cited here -- very good point in showing the difference between the two, so I wanted to try and clarify.
When Graham said the "hardly any" line on stage, it drew a pretty big laugh from the audience -- it seemed like a bit of humor on his part. The earnest meaning and connotation I took from that (and comments Graham gave off-stage) was that there were no obvious weak links in this batch.

Yep, this is very good advice -- especially the last bit. An intro from an entrepreneur we know already, or a respectable VC, is the best way to grab our attention for a closer look.
