This is one of the reasons I really want Stacker News to continue improving evergreen-ness of great content.
We can build immortal discussion threads that contain deep insights that might not surface anywhere else.

Wouldn't it be cool if discussion continued on posts?
Commenting on an old post notifies the author and the people you reply to, but the main street of stackers don't know anything about the ongoing discussion. This is sad. But it's a hard problem to solve.
The old school internet forum style (like BitcoinTalk uses) of surfacing threads that have recent comments may keep the conversation going, but it's kinda clunky.
I wonder what other style of social media does a good job of this?

it makes these discussions more insular which could be good and bad, i guess.
am wrong in thinking it is part of the reward structure that incentivizes people to prioritize recent posts? or is it zaprank?

What I've pitched to @k00b, and I think he liked, is to allow older posts to become top posts again if they get fresh engagement.
That would restart the rewards clock and reincentivize stackers to zap the post.

something it realistically has the potential to fulfill and it never needed another block-chain!
