Seriously, though, there should be some kind of reward for wading through all the noise in the new section. (yah I know I'm as much to blame as the next person. I do try.) And you know, maybe it really is time to be able to "bury" posts- three votes you're out or something.
upd: just did a quick calculation- 4.5 submissions per hour and speeding up rapidly. Could just be that time of day though.
- python_kiss 20y agolol! Like you, we rss hoggers don't sleep either :p I think most posts on here are a result of users aggregating through rss feeds to post whatever's hot on the web. Bury should work fine (perhaps it should only be accessible by top users to avoid abuse). Another possible solution is to survey the user's past behavior to create a collaborative filter. The filtered news could then be displayed in a "Recommended" tab. As yc.news grows to a certain critical level, this might just become a necessity.
- danielha 20y ago"perhaps it should only be accessible by top users [...]" Boy, I don't like that idea. I don't think content control will be a huge problem with YC News. We are all like-minded individuals here. The last thing we need is senseless aristocracy.
