I wonder if this HN post will get torpedoed as fast as the one from yesterday[0].

I really wish there was some simple calculations that could be shown on how posts are ranked. For eg post A has x upvotes, y comments, is z minutes old and therefore rank 2. Post B has these values, while C is here. Hence this post went down the front page quickly.

It's not that I don't trust the mods explicitly, it's just that showing such numbers (if they exist) would be helpful for transparency.

IMHO HN data should be transparent.

The innovation on detecting patterns would be incredible, and in reality I think would be best to evolve into allowing user-decided algorithms that they personally subscribe to.
