- _delirium 14y agoI flag it because at this point, afaict all the productive HN discussion that's going to happen has happened. Check the previous submissions with comments and compare the comments to the ones here: A lot of words seem to be being re-spilled saying the same things on all sides, which indicates a stalled (or perhaps, cyclical) conversation. Just the news itself I can get from elsewhere; the usefulness of something being on HN is if it produces good discussion, which repeated submissions of the same topic tend not to do, unless interesting new information comes to light between the submissions. That said, it's still on the front page 8 hours after submission, so obviously most HN readers don't agree with me.
