Hey there HN! I wanted to share a pet project of mine. I built HackYourNews [1] to scratch a personal itch: Knowing which stories to focus on while browsing aimlessly (though there is a certain joy in that, as well!) HackYourNews uses OpenAI's gpt-3.5-turbo to summarize the destination article as well as the comments section. Summarization of the article is always cached, while summaries of the comments are regenerated if the comments count is >10% (or >10 comments) different. While I styled the homepage to welcome HNers, my preferred view is the Mobile view, accessed from the navbar. This…

I built this tool to help me find interesting discussions on Hacker News. I love reading HN discussions almost more than the articles themselves. However, I found that full text search, although highly performant, is not always good at surfacing interesting discussions on a certain topic -- especially if you don't know what to search for exactly. I built this by scraping the most recent ~6 million posts (that's about 2 years of history) and putting the resulting posts and their vector embeddings into Postgres. Let me know what could be improved, and if you'd like a more detailed writeup of…

TL:DR - https://morningbrief.ai/setup Hi, HN -- We're two indie cofounders who bootstrapped a new product to scratch our own itch: there's so much great content out there, but it's hard to find it. Sites like HN serve us like-minded people, but there are many more topics in other non-HN niches. Our idea is this: an email you get once a day, filled with only top articles (posted to HN, Reddit, etc) that match your specific interests. You can specify which interests, and how many links you want. Ranked by our signal score. To start, we built an ingestion engine. In the first few…

Lately I've felt exhausted due to the deluge of AI/GPT posts on hacker news, and have seen similar grumblings. I threw together this frontend that filters out anything with the phrases AI, LLM, GPT, or LLaMa for use until the hype dies down a bit. Before anyone asks, yes I did try to use ChatGPT to help, and while the code it provided was helpful, it needed some heavy bug-fixing. Edit: One other note I forgot to mention. The favicon is generated by Stable Diffusion, I asked it to generate an "Aritificial Intelligence Favicon", and then I added the red circle with line through it.

Hey my name is Crisa and this is my first post here on HN. I love this site and it inspired me to build a clone of it for my newsletter. Instead of having a boring landing page, I hope to gather articles, blogs, interesting projects on my own platform. I would appreciate any feedback, good or bad so that I can improve the site.

I built this clone of Hacker News to get a quick summary of articles before deciding to read them. Summaries are cached in localStorage. Not useful for links to social media sites.

Hey folks, http://dstill.ai/hackernews is alternative frontend for Hacker News, with some features on top: (1) AI powered summarizations. Summaries are generated for the link, for the post and for the discussion. Summaries are automatically generated for selected top stories, but you can also generate them on demand — currently this requires supplying your own OpenAI api key (which gets stored in your browser in localStorage). When you generate a summary, everyone else can see it and benefits from it as well. Here are some examples: Summary of a long discussion:…

There is too much of everything in cybersecurity. Noise, FUD, unfulfilled sales promises, incidents, things to address, information to process, technologies to look at, people to educate. I am working as a CISO and it's mostly my job to raise awareness, understand all the risks, track all current issues and prioritize them, and be able to communicate all that with proper references and examples to our management team. I've been building and dogfooding a tool that ingests much of the noise and provides focused notifications per cybersecurity topic and regular awareness texts. The idea was to…

We’re George and Ann, and want to share a Hacker News specific browser extension that we have been working on. We all love the rich discussions in HN, but navigating long posts with multiple threads can sometimes be challenging. You get lost in the depth and breadth of the discussion. There are a few AI-based summarization tools, but they typically focus on summarizing the article rather than the comments, and thus miss the essence of threaded discussions. So, we built Hacker News Companion, a browser extension that makes it easy to navigate discussions and understand diverse viewpoints…
