This is kind of a meta commentary on this subject, yet something seems wrong with the HN rankings lately. The link mentioned has 270 points, and 317 comments, was posted only a day ago, and yet now cannot be found. Managed to eventually find it using Hacker News Rankings. Here's the chart. [1] [1] Jeep pushed software update ... , https://hnrankings.info/45558318/ https://hnrankings.info/45558318/ Story rises fast, makes it to number 2, then suddenly begins a rapid fall with no halting all the way down to 299, where it's no longer being tracked. (HN Rankings only tracks to 300) There's no mark of a [Dead] story. No comments that the story is not appropriate. Comments appear reasonable and polite. The graph looks like vote manipulation and story burying.
