  Thank you very much. I've noticed that a number of different YN posts are duplicates of previous entries[1]. Metadat makes a reference to 2019 and 2020. Is this typical? Are we looking at the same post again and again?

    On HN, reposts are fine after a year or so. This is in the FAQ: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsfaq.html.
