(BTW, it's a hacker news no-no to attach a comment to a submission. This isn't instagram where you are not allowed to post links that work... if you have something to say about your github project say it on your github page, don't say it here)

I've been here a long time, and, uh, what? I don't know if OP's comment in particular is a good one, but I don't think there's a problem in general with adding a little HN-specific commentary.
(Anyway, I checked the github profile in OP and didn't see any plausible candidates for the link, so either it's private or deleted (or never existed, but that seems less likely).)
I am getting the feeling that in the last two years Hacker News has attracted a lot of people who are trying to use the community like Product Hunt and who don't participate, write comments, upvote things, etc. Thus you see so many people who post links to their blog over and over again and either don't realize they are getting flagged right away or post about how mystified they are about this.
I am not the one flagging this sort of comment but a lot of people are doing it very quickly, it might even be automated. Part of it is that people tend to automatically assume that any kind of summary is just more AI slop. Who knows if it is, but it behooves you this summer to stop behaviors that contribute tot his perception.
Busted link!
Is it related to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulated_annealing ?
