Needs a (2014) in the headline.

  Not OP. However, do we really need a date for an article that is kinda true despite of its time. Sometimes, I feel that it is OK and the articles are timeless and applicable at any time.

    Yes, it's part of the rules for titles on HN, and some people want to know if they're clicking on older content

    > do we really need a date for an article Yes. I feel that you perceive it as some kind of (minor) insult toward the content, but it is not. I understand it as recommendation for the article. If somebody is sharing old stuff, it is not due to some current hype, but because it stood the test/filter of time. (I read max 1-2 articles per day probably; so I pick somehow) In 2030, I will be reading articles tagged “2024”.
