The concept was to rethink the way we browsed Craigslist and shopped online. The main section, the "homepage" is a tree map of recent craigslist posting sorted by popularity using a slightly modified version of Hacker News' ranking algorithm. The newest page is a masonry view of the realtime stream of the craiglist posts as they are added to the system (much like Hacker News' newest page.) The top page is the masonry view version of the homepage. The game page is a FaceMash-like game for the posts, which influences the overall scores and popularity of items.

Hello community. Some time ago I was trying to create a project for my students using Hacker News data. As you might know, HN offers an official API [0], but it's based on Firebase and I felt it's main usage is to build clients, rather than consult data. I found out that Algolia also provides an official REST API [1]. It's exactly what I needed: the ability to "search" HN. Either by keywords, type of stories (Show HN, Ask HN, etc) and/or date. So I created a thin python wrapper on top of Algolia's Search API: https://github.com/santiagobasulto/python-hacker-news The…

http://www.hnshowcase.com Moses (nnythm) and I browse Hacker News daily. Show HN posts are some of our favorite parts of HN. We wanted to create a way to browse Show HN articles, even those that might not quite make it to the front page. We created http://www.hnshowcase.com last weekend to make discovering projects posted on HN easier. It searches all "Show HN" posts and generates a thumbnail view for each of them. You can sort by submission date, points, and number of comments, and navigate with left/right or j/k keys. We used the following technologies: HN Search API, Pyramid web…

HN has been a destination on the Web for me recently, but I've had trouble really _getting into_ it. I realized that was because there wasn't an intuitive way for me to browse through articles, comments and authors. I started working on a GreaseMonkey script for myself and, as I got into it, decided I would share it with others who may be interested. SuperHN keeps everything on one page and adds keyboard navigation. 'W' and 'S' browse through articles, 'A' and 'D' cycles through an article, its comments and poster. It also makes the front page a bit more readable. You can get Super Hacker…

We added the official Hacker News API to SerenAI's x402 Gateway. AI agents can now query HN stories, comments, and users through the same MCP interface they use for Seren's paid publishers like Firecrawl and Perplexity. We're aiming to deliver greater composability: an agent can pull HN discussions (free), scrape competitor sites with Firecrawl, and get AI analysis from Perplexity, all in one protocol. We built a competitive intelligence example that tracks Show HN launches and competitor mentions across HN. GitHub: https://github.com/serenorg/x402-mcp-server Install: npx…

Hey Everyone! We made a hacker news map so you can hang out with other readers in the cities you're in: https://summerplaybook.com/g/HN-Map/e2e3d3bc5699417b8c54bbb252bebbf1?in=v6&rn=hn We run this website, summer playbook, which helps college students meet others near them over the summer Thought we'd toss up a hacker news map while we're at it. Catch us around the birthplace of YC, Cambridge, MA, if you sign up :) It could use a little polish on some of the edges but it gets the job done. The goal here is just to help people meet others around them. Though we…
