I have a meta question not directly related to the article but more about HN itself. I posted this exact link 9h before this submission was posted[1]. How is it possible that there is a new entry for the submission given the link is the same? [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/from?site=eclecticlight.co
Dupes are allowed after some number of hours.

In practice, if it gets any real amount of votes or comments, you have to wait a year to repost. If it doesn't get any attention, it can be reposted quickly (though I think it should be a day later).

3rd party supporting a file system would be one of the last things on a list of all software I’d ever want a 3rd party writing instead of the OS maker. Nightmare to evaluate the options, pure stress testing the options, difficult to know if it didn’t mess something up.

What percentage of MacOS users even know what that is. I mean I am in the percent but I know it's sub 0.001
Would this new format, ASIF, make this faster and better whenever I switch to macOS Tahoe? I hope there wouldn’t be any gotchas with respect to storing this disk image on a NAS.

But it also always feels like I am just awkwardly restating things I just said. It's not a thesis, an article generally not complicated enough to need a re-synthesizing of main points at the end.

It depends. I tried posting a few links I came across over the past few days, and it just showed me dups but they were from days or weeks or sometimes months ago.
Not sure why this comment is downvoted. Yes, I got redirected for a dupe earlier today for something posted 7 months ago. And even though the content substantially changed, it can’t be posted again.
