I think these user-contributed links to a single archive site are goofy: HN could generate these references automatically, or keep a FAQ-- OMG how radical! It's like modern-day samizdat!
This strange caveman presentation of HN where the same article is posted many times, and vigilant users try to condense previous references, make archive links etc by hand... except who cares bc the half-life of a post is 15 minutes and then immediately dumped down the memory hole!
How can a bastion of elite tech awareness be trapped in web of 1995?
Ye, it's quant. How pure and delightful: we're the most savvy Luddites in the world! Blow me
