Thanks dang!

You've helped keep HN readable, corrected countless title and link errors, and prevented heated discussions from devolving into fights.

I also am super thankful for your help getting my "Show HN" post to the front page.

We all appreciate you.

TIL it's "Dan G" and not the Chinese surname "Dang" that I'd always assumed.

I’m delighted to announce that Daniel Gackle (pronounced Gackley), who has already been doing most of the moderation for the last 18 months, is going to join YC full-time to be in charge of the HN community. Many HN users know Daniel as gruseom, though now he’s going to switch to the slightly more legit sounding dang.
