How did this get on the front page with 3 points and no comments? I see much higher point counts with comments that are still in new .

It’s not just the number of points that matter, it’s points over time. 3 points very quickly will rocket you over 20 points in 4 hours or something. And comments factor in too, so commenting “why is this on the front page” just helps it be on the front page

Not to mention this was at 23 points just 3 minutes after the GP post.

It's a technology and business story of general interest. Right in line with HN.
