Is it me or was this post artificially boosted to the top? According to Algolia it was submitted two days ago but the date was edited to say two hours https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...

Mods maintain an”second chance” list: submissions they see were ignored and think were worthwhile anyway. This happens to my submissions sometimes, and the second time they usually take off.
The submitter's profile page still says it was submitted "2 days ago". I assume that it got stuck in the spam queue and someone approved it 2 hours ago.
Just curious, why did you bother to look into when it was originally submitted? Do you have some plugin that automatic does it or did you think something was especially off here?

I'm honestly curious. I would never have even thought of looking.

Because I knew I had seen it before so I was looking for the old link to call this one out as a duplicate.
You’re account is 1 day old. I am a little confused how you saw it 2 days ago? Or better question why you made an account just to say something is fishy when it’s just a simple site about dog genetics, not a ad or anything else?
Listen I don't want to get into a whole thing here
