- vog 9y agoPlease note that duplicate submission are not discouraged on HN in general, especially not after such a long time. However, thanks for sharing the link to the previous discussion!

- tomjakubowski 9y agoThe polite convention on HN is to say this was discussed previously, and link to it, especially when it was last submitted and discussed over four years ago :-)
- dang 9y agoReposts are ok after about a year: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html.
- vog 9y agoI'm always confused about "Guidelines" and "FAQ". It seems that whenever I have a question about HN, I need to consult both, because it is not clear at all which site covers which question. Maybe "Guidelines" and "FAQ" should simply be merged? Edit: Opened an "Ask HN" submission about this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15255270 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15255270
- icebraining 9y agoI think Meta Ask HNs are also discouraged :) you're supposed to send them an email.
- grzm 9y agoI understand what you're saying. There's the Show HN guidelines as well. One could imagine them all as three sections on one page. The guidelines are for what you should do; the FAQ for general information. Then again, they're short. It's not a lot of effort to check both.
