It's exactly a changelog, blog, newsfeed, any number of things that read in this "newest news first" order.

This is the user friendly order for the repeat visitor and if that's not you, it's not for you. Your one time experience is suboptimal so the recurring interested audience visit is optimal.

That your HN-typical nitpicking was on top of this artisan's thread annoyed me, so I ordered a clock.

No, but it is a log. He just kept adding new entries to the top by the look of it.

Yep it doesn't feel natural in this case. It took me a second to realize I needed to scroll all the way down and read from there up.
