1842 days is over 5 years. At some point you have to consider the set of users here now is different to (if not distinct from) the set of users here 5 years ago

- TobbenTM 10y agoI don't think he meant anything by the comment, other than simplifying access to more (older) comments. ;)
- rusanu 10y agoCorrect. I've read the original post years ago, I do find it it fascinating, and I would like every new generation to read it. I don't have a quarrel with it making HN front page every now and then.
- ffggvv 10y agoProbably this is why he put here those links, to redirect the new set of users to discussions from the old set of users.
- dalbin 10y agoIt's useful for the new users too because previous discussions has a lot of comments to read. By the way, it would be great if there would be a "Related" widget with the number of comments somewhere in the comment page.
- curiousgal 10y agoClicking on the domain name is close to that.
- goldenkey 10y agoAs they say, close but no cigar. I come to the comments and find previous discussion because of a helpful user. Not because I knew to look for it.
