Does that mean the arbitrary, catch-all VS Code release threads are finally going to stop, too?
- dang 8y agoSure, if they fit the criteria. Keep in mind that we don't see everything and so can't catch all of these. If you see one that we appear to have missed, it would be helpful to let us know at hn@ycombinator.com. Edit: while I have you, could you please not create per-comment accounts? This is in the site guidelines: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html.

- baldfat 8y agoWell when there are version releases I think they should come through. A lot of time I have a wait till they have feature x included. The time stories are on the front page can be just a few hours. They might have been a big story in one time zone and then the later time zones don't see the story.
- dang 8y agoAll true, but front page space is the scarcest resource on HN. The approach I explained at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19103247 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19103247 has proven to work well. Btw, you can see front page stories you might have missed at https://news.ycombinator.com/front https://news.ycombinator.com/front.
