# Hacker News

A social news and discussion forum where users submit and comment on technology and startup stories.

**Route:** surfaced by the business incorporation services lane's de-branded queries → discusses to stripe.com.

**Why it's on the map:** The page surfaces links and commentary about payment infrastructure, fintech, and Y Combinator–backed companies (e.g., Herdr, ProvenMetal) that the anchor's buyer would also follow and debate, but does not sell or index payment vendors itself.

**Receipts** (verbatim from its page this run):

> Hacker News new | past | comments | ask | show | jobs | submit login

> Herdr is joining Y Combinator. The runtime stays open

> Launch HN: ProvenMetal (YC S26) delivers circuit boards in days instead of weeks

**Edges:**

- discusses [[cdrplatform-com]]
- discusses [[every-io]]
- discusses [[exalate-com]]
- discusses [[stripe-com]]
