Thanks, but there's nothing wrong with my memory. That only puts a fine point on my comment: how many times does GCU have to be submitted before everyone here "gets it"?


Someone answered that question in the old post too by saying that every 6 months doesn't hurt. People will stop upvoting if they think it's old news. Lots of stories get resubmitted on HN. The audience is probably growing. Lots of new people weren't here 250 days ago?


This. I wasn't here 250 days ago and I'm always glad to find another solid programming resource. I wasn't the first and surely won't be the last.

Besides, this type of link isn't necessarily a "news" story that will become outdated.


It wasn't meant to be a snarky comment; sorry if it came over like one.

searchyc.com[0] yields a lot of results, so you're definitely right with your statement.

I think we have to take into account that the number of HN users has probably grown quite a lot during the last year or two, so a link that you already know because you saw it on the frontpage may be new for the one or other user. Hence, I wouldn't be surprised if we'll see more dupe links of this kind on the frontpage.

Nah, I got your meaning. FWIW, I love GCU and have consumed a number of those videos. It's nothing against GOOG or GCU; it's probably that I've been here too long...
