How much would someone bid for Hacker News? It's just devs slacking of and wannabe entrepreneurs giving questionable advice.

Did you even read the article?

What? There are articles on Hacker News?

No, people just paste in the article titles to comment on. Everyone knows the content beyond Hacker News isn't worth reading anyway.

What's this "content" you speak of? My modem only connects to this BBS using Kermit.

Just sell it as the collective consciousness of the tech zeitgeist and you can probably get a check for a billion dollars

Now I'm curious what buying Hacker News would actually cost if someone actually wanted to do it.

I woke up like 2 minutes ago and this is the first thing I read. Fastest I've ever failed April Fool's.

In related news, the US Justice Department has filed against Alphabet in its bid to purchase Hacker News in Federal District Court this morning claiming the proposed merger would provide Alphabet an unfair market command of both the letter "H" and the letter "N." Justice Department Lawyer Jennifer Garner said in a prepared statement, "Imagine a world where Alphabet literally owned HN and forced you to purchase license to use either of those letters on your web site."

I kid you not, today Alphabet's mindless robot army more frequently know as Google thought the best news to surface as an Android alert to me was something with the words Kubernetes, Covid19, and Microservices in the title. I can't wait to see what SEO masters will come up with as the optimized article. We need a GAN site entitled "this is not an hacker news submission'!!!

Why do you let Alphabet's mindless robot army surface news as alerts on your phone in the first place? :P
