A comment on Ask HN: Do you ever click on the "ask" link?.

Yes, I look at the ask link from time to time to see what is posted here. Just now, I followed the ask link to see where my latest submission is. In that submission I ask Hacker News participants what they like about the Hacker News community. I'd be glad to hear your thoughts about that in that thread.

AFTER EDIT: I still don't understand, at all, the posting order here on the ask page. I can see new "ask" postings on the new page that appear nowhere here. I'm not sure what the ordering rule actually is for posts on the ask page.

I don't understand the order either.

I've resigned myself to using the search for posts with "Ask HN:" ordered by date, not 100% I know but better than the alternative.

Clicky: http://www.hnsearch.com/search#request/submissions&q=Ask...

And a Clicky for "Show HN" http://www.hnsearch.com/search#request/submissions&q=Sho...

I just noticed the search syntax link, these are better searches:

Ask HN: http://www.hnsearch.com/search#request/submissions&q=tit...

Show HN: http://www.hnsearch.com/search#request/submissions&q=tit...
