Emailing them at hn@ycombinator.com is a better way to get this done, as they see it faster and it avoids meta-conversations like this one lowering the signal-to-noise ratio of the comments.
That's a minor problem. In that case we just say thank you to more than one person.
The real problem is not knowing about the issue in the first place, so it's definitely best to email. Even if you see me replying in the thread, such as https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23501998, that's usually because someone called our attention to it by email.
Good to know thanks for clarifying, and also great job on moderating, this place is a pleasure to have discussions on thanks to efforts of people like you.
