I would like to see some analysis of which users are posting those urls.
A few months ago I did a cursory analysis of all techcrunch links submitted to HN and found that 40% of the links were submitted by the same 6 people - who submitted very little else.
Making me wonder if TC hires interns to submit their urls to places like HN - which from their point of view would make good business sense. But is ultimately bad for HN.
- spcmnspff 16y agoBoth TC and HN are interested in tech startups so I wouldn't be surprised if there were just people who submit on sight as they pop up on their rss feeds because of the karma on offer.
