I’ve also seen him be accused of biases involving his supposedly being Chinese. It’s sad when anything on HN turns into a flame war, and it would happen a lot more without his constant intervention.

I’m not quite sure what you mean. He’s not Chinese, but people sometimes parse his username incorrectly and jump to wild conclusions.

I agree that he does very fine work here.
