Seems someone thinks they're being super clever when really they're just childish and annoying. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
most hacker thing I've seen here in years
The website is almost 20 years old and they are no many to throw a tantrum like this.

And it can all be cleaned with a DELETE WHERE LIKE sql statement.

They proved a serious vulnerability to the entire site without causing irreputable damage.

Phreak on.

(and not very important but to be pedantic, I don't know if hn has an sql backend? It used to be all in-memory if I recall, but that was many years ago)
