undefined | Better HN

0 pointslolinder1y ago0 comments

A lot of people get their tech news by looking at the front page of HN. An algorithm artificially stopping the day's most important news story from surfacing there, leading to the discussion only being found by people who actively go looking for that specific discussion because they learned about it elsewhere, is absolutely a big deal.

I'm just glad that the Murati story falling off the front page allowed this one a second chance.

A lot of people saw the story. Without searching. Maybe more by simply searching openAI. Traffic gets sent in from external feeds etc. It's not buried. But the conversation is all disjointed now. Merging the [dupe] only makes it better/stronger.

Do you have a source for this? How did they find it if not on HN?

Moving the ~50 comments from the other thread here makes a ton of sense. All I'm saying is that this is the canonical and the other is the dupe.
