Ask HN：Hacker News 应该使用不同的时间算法来对帖子进行排名吗？
1 分•作者: thisismyswamp•6 个月前
我看到了 @gojomo 的这篇旧帖子：https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4758798，
其中提出了一个关于帖子排名的不同时间概念。
要解决的主要问题是，目前存在一种寻找最佳发帖时间的激励机制，因为活动量的差异导致某些时间段更有可能让帖子受欢迎。
因此，建议使用一种不同的时间“滴答”——不是时间本身，而是一个全站范围的活动计数器，例如浏览量、投票数或提交数。
我觉得消除寻找最佳发帖时间的激励机制这个想法很有意思。我认为一个理想的排名算法应该使发帖时间与帖子展示次数之间的相关性降为零。
很想听听大家的想法！

I came across this old post by @gojomo: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4758798<p>which suggests a different concept of time for ranking posts<p>the main issue trying to be solved is that currently there is an incentive to find the best time to post something, as the variance in activity causes some times to make for a higher likelihood of post popularity<p>the suggestion is thus for there to be a different kind of time "tick" - instead of time itself, maybe a site-wide counter of activity such as number of views, votes, or submissions<p>I find the idea of removing the incentive to find the best time to post interesting. I think an ideal ranking algorithm drives the correlation between the time of posting to the number of impressions on a post to zero.<p>Interested in hearing y'alls thoughts!
