It is an interesting thought about the voting ring because 37S so consistently gets onto the front page. Yet, I've seen big tech news stories that make headlines across the web somehow slip by the 'new' page on HN and then have a hard time getting on the front page. But as far as I can tell you only really need a handful of votes in the 'new' section to push a story onto the front page where it gets more of a chance to sink or swim. I assume pg does have some anti-vote ring countermeasures, and knowing of pg's love of bayesian algos I assume they are smart and adaptive, it would be fascinating to know how it works. |
