  On HN, we don't count submissions as dupes if the story hasn't had significant attention yet. This is in the FAQ: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html. The idea is to give good stories multiple chances at attention, since otherwise the randomness in what makes it off /newest is too great.
