  Have you seen the frontpage of Hacker News lately? Wikipedia article about a well know person in IT, namely Grace Hopper. A very old and known project that wants to rebuilt some old version of Microsoft Windows. Etc.

    Yes lately articles from wikipedia, some old pages, old projects and even photography contests make it to the homepage. And then the problem of duplicates submissions!

    What's your point? Can you explain why you submitted this blog post about Chrome OS?

    Don't forget an exciting multi-page analysis of a mysterious JS snippet.

  What the hell is going on this weekend with HN? I was okay with the random and slightly out of date ReactOS and TempleOS stories because of their quirkiness, but then the fake rape story and this old post are really making frown. The only thing that's worse is that I'm going to see this all again on Reddit in a few minutes. maybe I should do some work.

      See the (truncated) discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6309716 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6309716 The other reason we know they were fake is that if they weren't, we would still be hearing about it.
