What are some of the high-quality finds that sank without a trace?

Maybe we could send repost invites to put them in the second-chance pool! (https://news.ycombinator.com/pool, explained at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26998308)

Thanks! Those are more topical submissions than we would normally put in the second-chance pool. For that we're looking for more out-of-the-way stories, less in the flow of news or current affairs and of a little more deeper interest.

The other thing about some of those submissions is that they're a bit on the political side—not so much as to be off topic for HN (there's inevitably some political overlap [1]) but again, not the sort of quieter/curious story that we're looking to augment.

I think https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35319250 has more of those qualities though, so I've sent you a repost invite for it :)
