Show HN: New subreddit: Interesting content unearthed from HN

There is a lot of very interesting content on Hacker News which is invisible because it is old. In fact, I'd say that most interesting HN content is out of sight, just because there are only 30 stories on the front page. Our new moderator dang pointed this out in a recent comment (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7494464):

"I have written software ... (which would be) ... a neat way for users to find old threads. HN's archives are rich."

To serve us till such time as the software which dang mentions becomes available to us, I created a new subreddit for discovering and sharing great content (comments and discussion threads) from the rich HN archive:

I have seeded the subreddit with a few discussions from the past which I found interesting. Do take a look!
