Not a dupe, per se. Derek Lowe's summaries of current events are themselves valuable and aren't just "hey look, [this thing]!".

- pvg 4y agoHN dupes are mostly by value rather than by reference and there's also a kind of topic repetition limit even when the there's more commentary on the topic.
- dang 4y agoThat's a good point. I call this sort of post either a follow-up or a quasidupe, depending on how dupey (?) it is. The problem is that the HN discussions on a topic cluster tend to be much the same, even if the article itself isn't. But I've taken the [dupe] stigma off this one now.
