That's bizarre - I tried to submit this four hours ago and was told it was a duplicate. I searched, and couldn't find the original submission to upvote it, and now it's submitted again, after my submission was declined.
I don't understand.
But it's a great result, so I've upvoted it, despite being confused.

- gus_massa 11y agoI think it should be visible in your upvotes list: https://news.ycombinator.com/saved?id=CarolineW https://news.ycombinator.com/saved?id=CarolineW (Obviously, I can't see your list.) If that fails, you an email the mods hn@ycombinator.com . If this has an easy explanation, usually dang answer in the same day.
- jsnell 11y agoDup detection applies to deleted posts, but you can't find them using search. So what might have happened is that somebody submitted this link, deleted it, and then you tried to submit it.
