I tend to agree. HN seems to be uninterested in those stories. Submitting them on different days or at different times doesn't make much difference.
The Screen Huts was, I thought, pretty interesting and touches on things that do get discussed on HN like Facebooks weird Internet offering or the Google blimps.
I know it's only a slideshow, but still, it gives some powerful stories that explain the severe need for good, cheap, communications in developing nations.
Why murder rates matter to humanitarians: 1 point
Rohingya screen light portraits (Internet huts used by refugees): 1 point
Etc.
Thanks for the validation.
