Ask HN: Are people manually doing this?

from the ask-hn dept.

Prefixing the title with Ask HN and Show HN? Is that a convention here?

I also notice some posts, end up on Ask/Show...so is there an algorithm behind that?

Ps: just a noob asking...

That's the naming convention used to categorize the Show and Ask section. You simple prefix the title of the post with either 'Ask HN:' or 'Show HN:' and leave the URL field empty, if you want to create such a thread.
