It's pretty obvious now that every time a unfavorable news hits HN frontpage, all of the sudden the news drops rapidly despite having most votes and engagement and another favorable news suddenly appears on the HN frontpage despite being 6 hours old and the other one being just 4 hours old.
I don't care who is behind that, but be assure it's pretty obvious.
@dang: Anyway, it seems the HN algorithms is gamed, and measures should be taken.
