I've been trying to get an answer about this, but no reply so far. What will make a great post on Hackernews that will give a lot of points? Lets say if I design an innovative new search engine , quantum computer or Go AI and put it here on Hackernews, will I gain lots of points ? I saw some posts where the user gained like 200 - 300 points at once.
