From : https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20773297 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20773297 > This exactly the kind of Bot problem which another HN post was talking about, the user patwalls recently boasted on reddit/twitter about automating reddit submissions & gaining a boatload of views & is doing the same to HN with clickbait metric laden titles of obscure stuff. > https://twitter.com/thepatwalls/status/1164708441216077825 https://twitter.com/thepatwalls/status/1164708441216077825 So I have the feeling that this is another HN automatic submission. I don't mind if other find the subject interesting, but personally, I am not too keen on having to read spammy, but not totally spammy, blog posts. Moreover, if this becomes a successful strategy, it will only lead to more automated submissions. I am not too naive, and there already plenty of people optimizing the time of posting and content, but getting a spammy post about how to spam is a bit to tautological for my taste.
