Why did the timestamps on this article and all of its comments change?
- ColinWright 7y agoUnofficial reply ... Sometimes the mods decide that an article or submission was missed by the HN crowd and deserves a second chance. To do that they will sometimes de facto resubmit the item, which involves some minor tinkering with the data fields underneath. That may have happened here.
- shadowgovt 7y agoIf that's the case, it's weird the mods decided the system needed a nudge for this story. This is very much "The Atlantic Discovers Why He-Man Exists, Only Now YouTube."
- tgsovlerkhgsel 7y agoAlso a clickbait title: "... something nefarious" instead of mentioning what that something might be.
