"On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting."

The age of an article has no bearing on how interesting a good hacker would find it.

To make myself clear, I personally don't care that much about older articles. Anyway, I think it's good hn practice for older articles to put the year in title ... since many users might expect "news" or are old enough to have been pointed to those articles several times.
