On a whim I changed the date to something else: 2008-08-08. One of the submissions on top was "Ask PG: What are your thoughts on current YC News community?"
You'd think the comments were made last year, not in 2008:
> I discovered HN in spring and Reddit to and I have found the quality of HN going down in the last month
> Personally I find nearly all the mass-media submissions to be a dilution, no matter how techie or startup they sound.
Although I relate the most to the PG's comment:
> There are always a few highly ranked stories that make me think "how could anyone vote that up?" but on average they're pretty interesting. There's no other site I prefer.
I'm curious about this one too:
> If you must have a resume or portfolio, you should most definitely add your HN username and link to it.
Did anyone do it?
