Ah... dang = [Dan]iel [G]ackle

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.

I totally misread your comment and thought you meant that HN would be better of without the current moderation. Excuse me!

>>umvi+(OP)
It's both.
