The Website Hacker News Is Afraid to Discuss

For posterity, here's a spreadsheet of all Daring Fireball submissions to HN, sorted chronologically: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1A7ljmWbHtFsB4VRJ1Q0d...

From first glance there's still some decent traffic on Daring Fireball submissions, even inside the times Gruber asserts deadweighting.

The data was retrieved from the public HN dataset on BigQuery: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40644563
