I don't understand the order either.

I've resigned myself to using the search for posts with "Ask HN:" ordered by date, not 100% I know but better than the alternative.

Clicky: http://www.hnsearch.com/search#request/submissions&q=Ask...

And a Clicky for "Show HN" http://www.hnsearch.com/search#request/submissions&q=Sho...

I just noticed the search syntax link, these are better searches:

Ask HN: http://www.hnsearch.com/search#request/submissions&q=tit...

Show HN: http://www.hnsearch.com/search#request/submissions&q=tit...
