IIRC, this isn't the first time you've responded to a moderation comment by pointing a finger at someone else. I'm happy to answer questions to satisfy curiosity, but not when they're a way of rejecting moderation. We need you to follow the rules here regardless of what anyone else is doing.

If someone else is breaking the rules and escaping moderation (because, as I said, we don't see everything), they'll get caught and moderated eventually. If you want to give us a heads-up by flagging or by emailing hn@ycombinator.com, that's welcome. But please don't take it as an excuse to break the site guidelines yourself; that only makes everything worse.
