Ok, now I'm confused. In the comments from 2 days ago is a link to this submission: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40241804 Is there some bug about how the news gets timestamped?

If you hover over the timestamp it points back to May 2nd as well.

This is probably from the Second Chance pool.

I think there’s a system where a post will appear as resubmitted to the system when it didn’t get a lot of attention. Maybe this happened here and the post is actually 2 days old?

Author/submitter here. Not sure why it got re-upped -- it wasn't me -- but not complaining.

It's an amazing little OS and you should try it as a glimpse of something mature, capable and useful that is entirely outside and separate from the Unix/Windows/DOS/Mac/C-language tradition. It's as unique as a mainframe OS or something, and yet it's a tiny fast graphical desktop.
