There's something called a second-chance queue for overlooked submissions https://news.ycombinator.com/pool (listed on https://news.ycombinator.com/lists)
Some older users (I think YC alumni) can nominate articles and moderators give them a boost. The timestamp doesn't change, I've seen 2 day old articles appearing. It's a bit confusing, I think it was hacked in years ago but works good enough.
That's my site! I did it for quite a few photosets, like this one https://photos.paulstamatiou.com/africa/southern-serengeti-t...
Surprised it still mostly works fine many years later
I'm not able to find the post that OP refers to about how you animated the SVGs. Maybe you could share the link? Thanks!
thanks for the great work :)
daaaamn!
That's the one :) Thank you so much for finding it!
I also see it as posted an hour ago, and see the original thread post as 2 hours ago.
Odd.
EDIT: Any HN mods/devs reading this -- there seems to be a display bug for comment creation time? On edit it says 20hrs (accurate), whereas viewing the comments otherwise shows that it was posted an hour ago. Not sure what's going on
