whoishiring bot here. I agree that it would be far better to post these only on business days.

But if these posts don't show up on time on the first of the month, others will post them and they will be upvoted. Moderators would have to kill loads of posts until the appointed time.

Moving the thread is definitely a solvable problem, but I'm not sure that it is worth the extra moderation work. Furthermore, neither your whoishiring bot or its caretaker is a moderator.

You know, I was thinking about this before I saw these comments and I did think "maybe it would be better if Who Is Hiring 1/15 was posted on Monday cos fewer users will see it", but then I thought about it some more and changed my mind. I now think that it's OK and you should just leave it and not do anything else.

The reason why is because HN WIH has now gotten to the point where it's a regular feature and people expect it, like clockwork. I think folks who check in on Monday who read it every month will find it and upvote it anyway. This isn't a strongly held opinion, though.

Just re-post tomorrow?

I don't think many software developers or hiring mangers will be working tomorrow either.
