PG's Hacker News account is 10 years old today

There have been three leap days between his account creation and now.

And three leap seconds.

Just noticed this while passing through. Does this mean HN is 10 years old today?

It'd be great to hear more on how PG built the community from scratch. Hacker news is definitely a daily read for me.

I'm more surprised that Hacker News in general is that old. Is it really 10 years since this community began? Because I've always felt like it was started more recently than that.

Then again, I feel the same thing about a social networks at the moment. I can't quite believe the likes of Facebook, Twitter and Reddit are anywhere near as old as they actually are.

Not until Sunday, because leap year.

Last comment 340 days ago? Hmm.. not exactly a vote of confidence in his invention.

He retired from Y Combinator last year. He is no longer a moderator here.

Who cares?
