  So what? 5 months is a long time, and I bet that they've added a lot of symbols. (Also: I've been on HN for a really long time and there are plenty of things that are months — or years — old that I've forgotten about and wouldn't mind seeing again.)

    Do you think HN would benefit from a bot that reposts 5-month-old resources where the resource would have updated since then? I think this would only be valuable when the first post is more of a "show hn/looking for contributors" and the second is a "this project has come of age and is valuable for the general population". Otherwise, if it was valuable then, you would've bookmarked it. If it wasn't, it shouldn't have been submitted.

    Sorry you took offense to that. I just thought people would want to see the older thread since it was pretty popular at the time and the comments seemed useful. I love older posts too, and actually include a section in my weekly Hacker Newsletter project just for them.

  I've seen it on here every few months for over a year.
