HN is a link aggregator, of course there's going to be agents or bots that automatically post links to HN and all the other link aggregators. I don't mind, given how the point of link aggregators is to get all the links and have the heroes that visit /newest find the best ones.

We need to make sure the signal-to-noise ratio of /newest doesn't dip too much though otherwise it'll be difficult to find the diamonds in the rough. It's already pretty fast moving as it is.
