Related to the original discussion in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29387264 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29387264, why is this post falling off the HN front page? It has almost the same number of votes and comments as https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29401454 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29401454, which is 8 hours older and 14 spots higher on the front page. Maybe there are way more dislikes, and the algorithm doesn't like that?
