Cool product, collecting is so important when building a SaaS. Have you thought of expanding this to e-commerce? I work in e-commerce and could this utilization of this product quite a lot.

What's the point of fake comments, let alone talking with yourself using alt accounts?

Do you think potential users will trust someone who posts fake comments?

It appears that Show HN has special algorithmic handling, which is why you would expect stricter rules.

Good point - I just linked to the first relevant explanation. pvg linked to a much longer explanation that isn’t specific to, or about, Show HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23071428

These are different articles being posted, not dupes.

Thanks for editing out the line where you told me to go get my brain checked.

What a bad faith comment. How is a new version announcement a dupe? If you don’t care then you don’t have to comment.

Don’t rely on my assessment, go read https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9775868. If you disagree, don’t tell me, suggest an improvement to Dan.

> to qualify as a new Show HN there needs to be some major new development, not just a new feature

One could argue a major version qualifies. Apart from the genuine dupe 3 months ago all of these are separate stories.

dang's comment also specifically covers "show hn" posts which this is not. Some clarification from dang would be helpful though.

Your quote omits the portion where Dan explicitly addressed that case. It needs to be one year since it received “significant attention,” and also major new development. Dan’s post could be worded more clearly, though.

(We’re pretty far in the weeds here, but as long as we’re here – for all intents and purposes, this is a show HN.)

This is _not_ a repost from our perspective. This is a massive new chunk of features and content (993 pull requests from 256 contributors) including new hot-topic features like Virtual Geometry.

Please reread https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9775868. It says one year since it received significant attention, not one year except when a massive chunk of features and content is added. Dan explicitly addresses that case (“but that only applies after the "significant attention" test has been passed”).

Effectively a dupe - this just got attention 3 months ago (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39672947, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39677009) and 8 months ago (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38144417).

Once a year has been suggested as the typical maximum frequency: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9775868 . Consider reposting in 2025.

Also, coordinating comments and upvotes won’t do you any favors. It’s an easy way to get all submissions banned.

troydavis commented on Does eating at night increase mortality risk?   pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3... · Posted by u/wjb3

May the risks come from less sleep as a consequence of night eating and not from eating itself?
troydavis · a year ago
Head over to the full text (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10899630/) and find in the page for “sleep”. Excerpt:

> Covariates included … drinking status (never drinker/past drinker/current drinker), body mass index (kg/m2), physical activity (metabolic equivalent hours per week (METs-h/week), sleep hours (hours/day)

They also break down sleep hours by cohort, with roughly 12 minutes/day less sleep among high nighttime eaters.
