This is always interesting to me, the random vitality of knowledge here. What was it that made that other post flop? I mean it was pretty much the same group of people here, so it is not the knowledge of this that really triggered this to be on the front page, so what does the HN community really value then?
- dewey 2y agoTime of the day, day of the week. Other topics that are popular at the time. There’s a lot of factors and it’s not always the quality of the submission. That’s why the second chance pool exists.
- mdaniel 2y ago> What was it that made that other post flop? My long-standing question is why the holy hell is there no dupe checker? It's not that I care about some rando having their submission get 1600 points 3 hours after an identical one. It's often the problem of a medium-level discussion happening on a submission, then the later submission really catches fire and the first audience has no idea unless the second happens to make the front page. The second audience rehashes the talking points already covered by the first audience, and only dang can do an update to merge them together if someone cares enough to email them. So much manual curation for a site about using technology to solve problems
