How did this article get the first word "How" through the HN filter? Why does this filter exist?
- nkurz 4y ago1) The filter only exists for the initial submission. You can manually edit the leading word back in after that if you want. 2) I'm not certain, but I presume the idea is that many clickbait article titles are improved by removing the "how".
