I appreciate that whoever runs the site can call it whatever they like, but I wish they hadn't chosen 'Hacker News'. I know that it's my own prejudices at play here but it's simply embarrassing to have 'Hacker News' staring out from the top of my browser window. It's so ridiculous I can't even bring myself to say it, when I discuss links with a friend who also checks this site the conversation starts with 'did you see that article about X on the, er, the YCombinator news site?'.
