Hacker News Classics (2018)
I've long had this notion that there are two kinds of content on a site like HN:<p>- temporal, like news, announcements, analysis and discussion on current events. It's usually irrelevant after a while, it gets stale fast.<p>- atemporal, like essays, history, theory, articles, knowledge in general that while it may get superseded, expanded or invalidated over time, it's interesting content that you learn from, from a current or historical perspective.<p>While the first kind tends to get more attention due to the clickbaity nature, I much prefer the second kind and wonder if a site focused solely on that would be more interesting.
