Could probably add any number of discussions of concatenative programming, most notably “Why Concatenative Programming Matters”.

I wanted to reply like what is below but got cold feet. But thanks.

I think most (? certainly many) readers like the links to past discussions. If it were just a list of past submissions, most of which didn't get comments, I'd agree with you.

I also try to drop the ones that got comments but the comments were off topic or otherwise useless.
