However, we are in touch with the Hack Club people and are delighted to help turn some of the amazing creative work their kids are coming up with into decent Show HNs. I'm sure everyone here can agree that a project like this one more than deserves some support:
Show HN: MyraOS – My 32-bit operating system in C and ASM (Hack Club project) - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45715055 - Oct 2025 (55 comments)
There's no guarantee anything will "go viral" of course—that's up to the community. What we're happy to do is help the project creators do their writeups in a way that fits HN's conventions. HN can be a cryptic and inscrutable place to outsiders, and kids are by definition outsiders since they haven't been around for years to absorb the vibe.
(and btw, the same goes for any student or young person working on a project that the HN community might find cool and enjoy discussing)
> it will be manually boosted in the algorithm by them.
The intentions are of course good, but a little transparency around these manual boosts would be appreciated.
