One could argue a major version qualifies. Apart from the genuine dupe 3 months ago all of these are separate stories.
dang's comment also specifically covers "show hn" posts which this is not. Some clarification from dang would be helpful though.
- troydavis 2y agoYour quote omits the portion where Dan explicitly addressed that case. It needs to be one year since it received “significant attention,” and also major new development. Dan’s post could be worded more clearly, though. (We’re pretty far in the weeds here, but as long as we’re here – for all intents and purposes, this is a show HN.)
- mrtracy 2y agoIt appears that Show HN has special algorithmic handling, which is why you would expect stricter rules.
- troydavis 2y agoGood point - I just linked to the first relevant explanation. pvg linked to a much longer explanation that isn’t specific to, or about, Show HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23071428 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23071428
- johnnyanmac 2y ago>for all intents and purposes, this is a show HN I don't really see how. Is it a Show HN because Bevy isn't a trillion dollar corporation making the news every other day?
