Wow, I posted this story twice within the past 24 hours. The first one didn't quite get enough momentum, and the second got nothing. I knew it was a winner.

I knew it was a winner. I should have gone for 3.
1pm on Monday didn't do it. Looks like 5pm EST was a better time.
- dang 9y agoI think it's mostly just random what does or doesn't get attention. I noticed an article yesterday that only took off on its ninth posting: https://hn.algolia.com/?query=The%20Death%20of%20Microservice%20Madness%20in%202018&sort=byDate&dateRange=all&type=story&storyText=false&prefix&page=0 https://hn.algolia.com/?query=The%20Death%20of%20Microservic.... We try to rescue good stories that fell through the cracks and put them in the second-chance queue, described at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11662380 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11662380 and links back from there. But it's random what gets seen that way, too. Plus it depends on how much energy we have and whether there are flamewars going on elsewhere and whatnot.
