Apologies, I haven't seen it here before.

It's very common for items to be posted here on a semi-regular basis. Some things just appeal to the hacker mindset, and when seen, get posted. Mostly I'm providing a link to previous discussion so people can see what HN said about the matter last time.

A timeline would be an interesting feature to add to posts, but it might be difficult to prevent abuse, without adding up down voting on each timeline item.

Ugh, 'discussion' was submitted more than 5 years ago. The world has changed since then.
ColinWright OP
If nothing else, that makes it even more interesting to see the previous discussion, and see how attitudes have changed, if at all.

Do you have an automated method of generating this list?
ColinWright OP
I have a script. I put in search terms, it pops out the list of items, along with estimated numbers of comments. I then, by hand, construct the reply.

The last person to do that got yelled at by everyone a lot :(

I always found it very useful.

This item has no comments currently.
