PS: I was sure I commented on this, possibly on 37signals' site itself, but I can't find the comments anywhere... oh well.
- DanielRibeiro 15y agoThanks! I surely hadn't notice that now we have a search box. Teaches me that It should have stroke me as a bit odd that it wasn't posted on HN already, and that rellying on HN identical URL "was posted already" mechanism is not really relliable.
- jlind 15y agoI think a re-post isn't without merit though. There's plenty of people here (myself included) who might not have seen this article otherwise.
- swombat 15y agoI never suggested it wasn't worth reposting - I just thought some people might like to know when it was posted, and see the previous set of comments.
- mikeleeorg 15y agoPerhaps having an easy way to link up, or display, the comments from a previous post of the same link would be helpful. I myself find it really interesting to read old comments from a previous post.
- derefr 15y agoIt occurs to me that, since we now do have some sort of local search index built into HN itself, it should really be using that index as part of the "was posted already" mechanism.
