[2004]
I don't like this new HN trend of not adding the year of the article. This is Hacker NEWS not Hacker Old.
- smcl 12y agoI think this has surfaced again because of some of the discussion around this article on The Pirate Bay: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8728011 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8728011. I think it's a good article whether or not it was written ten years ago.
- louhike 12y agoHe disapproves the lack of the year in the title, not the presence of the article on HN.
- Qwertious 12y agoI concur. Could a mod please add the year in to the title?
- sysk 12y agoI usually add the date when I feel the historical context is important but in this case, I didn't feel it was (bits are still bits, copyright is still a thing, the Paranoia game doesn't appear to be around anymore but it was only used to illustrate the author's point). Anyways, title updated.
