Ask HN: Why did HN add a black strip on top?

5 pointsby ilya_malmost 2 years ago
Is this in acknowledgement of Kevin Mitnick's untimely passing?

Yes. It gets added when someone in the computing world passes.

&gt; Occasionally, there will be a thin black bar at the top of the top bar, in memoriam of a significant figure in the tech&#x2F;science community dying. A Hacker News submission about the death will usually be on the front page at that time.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;minimaxir&#x2F;hacker-news-undocumented">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;minimaxir&#x2F;hacker-news-undocumented</a>
