Being on the HN's homepage isn't as simple as "most upvoted articles in last X hours". They take into account upvote velocity: 40 upvotes in 40 minutes isn't the same as 40 upvotes in 4 yours.

Would you rather have yet another LLM-generated slop article in its place instead of an article covering a major release for a widely-used language? Out of all the articles that reach the HN front page, this is the one you have a problem with?
