HN could implement an interview style vetting. A new post is shown to a N interviewers who vote yes/no. The stddev is sqrt of number of votes. Once the number of upvotes crosses the 95 tile, the post is admitted. Once the number of downvotes crosses the 95 tile, the post is rejected. Otherwise the post stays in the undecided area until it expires.
