https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42364372 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42364372 reportedly 3 days ago but it's the same HN item ID as this one (second chance pool maybe?)
It's barely 2 weeks old, is it worth reposting that often?
Semi-related, I remember submitting something I found interesting that had been posted iirc ~40 days ago, but had barely gotten any votes so I submitted it once more and i just get redirected to the old ID and the system refuses to create a new entry. Okay no problem, I'll post later^W^W forget about it, but that makes me wonder: how can 4 submissions in two weeks even physically happen?
- vunderba 2y agoIt would be nice if HN took advantage of the fast Algolia search as the person is typing in the "Submit URL Field" to show the last time(s) it has been submitted in chronological order to help make a better informed decision as to whether something is worth submitting in the first place.
- throwup238 2y agoThat's on the roadmap, circa 2045. We just got unpaginated threads after several decades so it'll be a while before the developer cooldown is up.
- simonw 2y agoYeah, I think that's a bit weird too. Note that this is my article but none of those submissions were by me. Maybe Hacker News needs to extend the time period during which it checks for duplicate URLs?
- lcnPylGDnU4H9OF 2y ago> second chance pool maybe? It appears to be so. You can hover your cursor over the relative time of the post to see an absolute date which does not change.
- hoc 2y agowhich is funny, given the topic.
- lxgr 2y agoReposting will continue until we can agree on a date format that lets us clearly and unambigously state when we'll stop it :) But seriously, yes, I think this is a very reasonable observation that's still surprisingly controversial and accordingly could benefit from more boosting.
