Ask HN: Hacker News content license and distribution

I am working on a pet project that utilizes data from Hacker News. Wanted to share these insights in a git repo, but wondering if I was able to share the content itself.

The content was grabbed via the firebase API and is about 40K comments. Currently in a pickle format, but can also be json (CSV does not work well with nested content and data frames). Can also share the scripts to bootstrap the data from scratch, but it does take a while and would not want others hitting the API with the same script.
