No, not a dupe.

This is my article, and I tried hard to explain who he is, what he's done, why his work is important, and the context and significance of this.

A duplicate means a copy. Your link is to a different story.

It doesn't have to be the same link or the same article be a dupe.

> A duplicate means a copy

On HN, if someone submits an article on Tuesday for some news that broke on Monday that received a substantial of comments, it's a dupe.

(You're also not supposed to continually spam your own work here. There's a reason why most of your submissions are autokilled to [dead].)

I disagree with you.

I have never seen any post of mine marked [dead] yet, including when using a private window and not logged in, so I am very dubious about that claim as well. I have had a single one marked [flagged] so far, and I dispute the fairness of that. I think it was a misunderstanding, which is very common.
