Looks like that one was posted later* so we'll merge that thread hither. Thanks!

* (you can tell from the item IDs)

ah. was confused by the timestamping on my end (i.e. 41080654 shows just '2 hours ago' and 41086952 shows '7 hours ago'). must be some other inner-workings. but thanks for pointing out IDs to me for future reference.

That's an artifact of HN's re-upping system. The system is described at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26998308 and links back from there. About the timestamps, there are past explanations here: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que.... I hope that will make sense!
