Sad to see this downvoted, because Paul's full name is never mentioned in the article and someone who is using HN mainly as a news aggregator and doesn't know the full extent of YC probably never heard of Paul Graham in the first place. Get your shit together HN people.
I think that's a good litmus test to see how new you are on HN.
Paul Graham (YC founder/I think he wrote the initial iteration of HN?)
