Howdy folks. Phil your friendly neighborhood security guy here with a new series on securing your servers and systems. This series will be focusing mainly on Linux systems, Docker Containers, and Vulnerability management - Oh My!
IMHO, this user should be banned from posting as it is a "repost robot".
As per HN guidelines, a submission is "anything that gratifies one's intellectual curiosity", and I should add an "&&" operator with the following criteria "you should already read the article, or at least, visited the page you are about to submit and find it interesting".
Having the above said, I doubt a robot could do this even if it is "GATOed" or "GPT-{3,4..}ed"

You've posted with a remarkable consistency over the past few days. I went back to 150 submissions and collected the timestamps; the longest you've gone without posting is just shy of 67 minutes. I looked at the distribution of intervals between posts, in minutes, rounded to a single decimal place:
44 30.0
21 35.0
20 35.1
14 29.9
7 65.0
7 60.0
6 34.9
3 40.0
3 30.1
2 60.1
2 28.2
1 66.8
1 65.1
1 61.8
1 55.1
... this is the top 15
You're highly likely to submit a link every 30 minutes, and if not that, then every 35 minutes. You're practically like clockwork, over 50% of your submissions happen with an interval like this.
We are supposed to review metrics on this PC for our mobile app every 30 minutes. It's a very tireless duty that we share. In the past we had automated alerts setup for this, but they failed and it lost the company a fair bit, so now we have a share task =(
Many people submit things that have been on HN before and the guidelines are clear that reposts are allowed when older than a year. There have been a lot of stories that when resubmitted years later have very interesting discussions surrounding them because of the developments since they were submitted - the context is entirely different.
I do these roundups each week so you can see what's new in Self Hosting. I will also throw in some quick news bits to make it more fun! Let me know what you think.
