I love how HN doesn't cry repost, and instead just treats the previous thread as background to the current one. It's refreshing, because the reality is that most of us don't see every single post. Barring a topic from being discussed ever again, simply because it's been here before is ridiculous.

You only get the cries of repost here when it’s a short time (hours or days).

Exactly! I just stumbled upon this blog and thought that this is something for HN. Really pleasurable.
