I don't think "posting all xkcd cartoons" is near happening in HN at all. This one it's pretty close to the HN main interests (academy research and/or entrepreneurism)
- Tichy 17y agoActually we've been through that. Not sure why it (thankfully) stopped.
- jcdreads 17y agoMy guess is that it stopped because there are no longer any HN readers who both like xkcd and don't check it anyway. We reached xkcd-awareness saturation a couple of years ago.
- Kirby 17y agoI think there's a reason to post this one in particular - to set up a comments thread on HN about it. I kind of thought it had harsher implications for Academia - for every self-congratulatory paper of something new, it's already been done a hundred times in the "Real World" in an unheralded source control repository.
