- detaro 5y agoyes, 1 year. From the FAQ: > Are reposts ok? If a story has not had significant attention in the last year or so, a small number of reposts is ok. Otherwise we bury reposts as duplicates.
- albertom94 5y agoThanks, I totally missed that - good to know.
- bryanrasmussen 5y agothat's pretty vague, first of all last month is in the last year; even if we assume in the last year to mean longer than a year ago the or so part can also imply leeway before that year is out (this is of course a regional usage, most places in U.S I think take last year or so to mean a year or more) usage of vernacular speech while humanizing also has the effect of making things inexact.
- hungryforcodes 5y agoAnd that's why we invented math!
- bryanrasmussen 5y agoyeah without math I wouldn't know I got downvoted from 1 to 0!
- hungryforcodes 5y ago+1 for math. :^)
