Hacker News

Things started around 2017, when Graham Paul - one of the world's most renowned technology experts, decided that he wanted to dedicate his efforts and expertise to the cybersecurity field by establishing a special and high-quality blog. During its earlier stages, this website worked as a type of platform that reported regular news associated with online security and ways to make programmers feel more aware of their online security.

By now, Hacker News has gathered millions of users every month with more than 3 million subscribers to their social networks, lauded as one of the best blogs about programming to follow.

The blog merits the title as one of the greatest and most professional sources that cover both security techniques and the latest, most updated programming technologies and developments in the field. Regular readers that come to this blog often are both amateurs and top-class experts alike, who share equal interests in such issues.

In the first days, Paul's intention was to establish a community that works similar to Reddit's earlier periods. Still, while Reddit allows new users to immediately downvote and upvote content, Hacker News refuses to let new users do the same things till they have gathered at least 500 karma points. The points are counted by taking the upvote number of a user and minus it with the downvote numbers.
