Purely meta: It would be nice if HN could automatically show links to the discussions that took place the numerous other times this and other links have been submitted and front-paged. Seems like a lot of waste if each batch of HN users has to re-discuss the article from scratch. I tried Googling for the rest of them but so many irrelevant pages came up that I just gave up.
Pulls up only a handful of results. There are comments pointing to this link, but I don't think there's any story submissions. I could have sworn that this has come up before, but maybe we're both remembering wrong (or those submissions were killed and are now '[dead]') and we're just thinking of discussions where someone mentioned it in the comments.
