That probably is too much to ask for stories in fields where the community has a low density of specialists. Excessive claims about, say, computing are less likely to be entertained here, simply because HN has lots of users who know about computing.<p>We see the same thing with big news stories: often a sensational splash with tons of upvotes and comments is followed a few days later by a follow-up showing how the original story was wrong, but going largely un-noticed.<p>I don&#x27;t think it&#x27;s too much to ask, though, for substantive articles reporting debunkings and refutations to get their share of attention. We just emailed you a repost invite for the one on deep brain stimulation, and I hope you&#x27;ll continue to post those as you find them. It is a valuable service to the community.<p>Btw, any time you (or anyone) know of a particularly good article that fell through the cracks, you should email us at hn@ycombinator.com so we can send a repost invite or put it in the second-chance pool. Some of the most interesting and popular links that have appeared on HN recently have been rescued from oblivion this way, so there&#x27;s evidence that it works. We&#x27;ll probably eventually add a feature to HN for people to nominate stories for a second chance this way.
