3 points, no discussion, only 4 hours old and ranked 19? Is the ranking algorithm at HN broke?

- Stratoscope 9y agoThere's no rule that HN submissions must be related to hacking or technology or startups. Best thing is just to ignore stories you're not interested in, or flag them if you think they are really inappropriate (but not just because you find them uninteresting). > On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity. > Please don't submit comments complaining that a submission is inappropriate for the site. If you think a story is spam or off-topic, flag it by clicking on its 'flag' link. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
