I'll skip you guys some time, hackerstuff - all media links, entities and people mentioned on HN, weighted by posters karma.
We could even display them together sorted by the newest one, maybe with some associated comments.

Cool project!
I’d appreciate if the site didn’t hijack my scroll wheel though. It currently doesn’t let me scroll through the page at my own speed, which is super annoying, plus it hides any scroll bar (which would have served as my escape hatch for scrolling).

What's missing are entity-level extracted data, and embeddings.

I'm pretty sure the AT protocol is meant to solve this. Not so sure that any of the big players in the social media industry are enthusiastic to use it, though.
glenstein 7 hours ago [-]
Meanwhile the Fediverse is and has been running for years, long before AT jumped in and took the spotlight. You're not wrong, and I'd rather have AT than not have it. But it reminds me of N'Sync eating the Backstreet Boys' lunch back in the day.
It also reminds me of the Onion article "Sumerians Look On in Confusion as God Creates World".
I get you, though it's mostly a problem if the userbase is split (I suppose it is, I'm unfamiliar). If so, it's a long-term problem only if one does not eat the other. Having a mainstream protocol/stack is a good thing.
glenstein 2 hours ago [-]
My opinionated take is there was a kind of cultural moment where the world was ready for Something Else post-twitter, and instead of just the Fediverse, or just something else, the world encountered a fractured, motley combination of Fediverse/Bluesky + AT proto/Threads and there was never a unified zeitgest moment that belonged to any single answer, though BlueSky was closest to having a kind of cultural watershed reaction moment.

We used to have.. at least it was not so heavily restricted.. and then AI happened, and everyone closed those down.
Such a sad state of affairs.. holding end user's data hostage.
I would just love it if the front page were full of "Show HN: HackerFoo" posts for two weeks now.
xeyownt 9 hours ago [-]
Then we must have a "Show HN: HackerHack", all the Hackerfoo sites mentionned on Hacker News.

Pls buy some nice domain for project and then we can talk :). I am a bit tired to bookmark a project that disappears in few weeks when traffic via Netlify grows and isn’t free anymore…

andai 8 hours ago [-]
A little while ago I was looking for a domain for a project. I spent like 12 hour straight trying out different names. Not a single one was actually being used! Almost all of them were domains for sale (average price like 10K). A bunch of them were registered but server didn't respond. One was a blank page. And one was a company intranet.
I guess those last two are actually being used for something. But it kind of bothered me you know. Like if someone bought all the land in your city and then just left it empty. (Actually that sounds kind of nice... Bad example :)
sixtyj 3 hours ago [-]
Domain squatters are terrible, I know from experience too.
You can register any free domain, it is better than having the project at Netlify, Vercel, ChatGPT, lovable, or any other domain - those domains are vendor-locks.
lifeisloving 11 hours ago [-]
I mean, Im probably never going to bookmark a netlify url. A domain cost $3.00.
If someone doesnt care enough to invest $3.00 in their project I'm not going to use it.
On more than one occasion a friend has sent me a netlify link asking for my opinion on a business or product and Ive replied that its a throwaway project.
darkwater 10 hours ago [-]
Where? I had a xyz for a few bucks in PorkBun and it just renewed for 15$ now. Also, a domain is an ongoing expense.
lifeisloving 7 hours ago [-]
Yes first year is cheap then ~10.00 a year. Not a bad deal, as someone mentioned below, just use subdomains on one domain for all your toy projects.

Just let it expire and then buy the same one as "new" on sale again! /s

komali2 11 hours ago [-]
Especially because you could just buy your name as a domain, then put all your projects as subdomains off it. I have like, a billion projects off my co-op's subdomain, which costs us, idk, a hundred bucks a year?

Great job! As a little suggestion, it'd be great if this could also process non-English Wikipedia articles, because some niche (usually culture-specific) topics do not exist in English Wikipedia, and I believe there is quite a bit of value in exposing these.

I like that it links to the actual HN comments (I don't think Karpathy's yt equivalent did that), and tbh I enjoy reading the context in which articles/videos are mentioned as much (or more) than the articles/videos themselves.
defrost 13 hours ago [-]
Click through on HackerTube took you from thumbnail wall to a specific video summary with AI context summary and links to user comments.
( I read my own past comments several times. Brrrr )
nomilk 13 hours ago [-]
Thank you I see them now. Since I enjoy reading the HN comments more than (and often prior to) the video itself, I'd love the comments to be on hover or sidebar (like Wikihack) on the main page so I can use them to decide whether to invest time on the video.
LoganDark 11 hours ago [-]
One video may have been linked to in multiple comments, which is why each comment that links to the video is enumerated under the video.
On the desktop this seems to be only rendered for mobile.
aizk 6 hours ago [-]
I modeled the UI explicitly after tiktok and youtube shorts on desktop.
For wikitok, I made it take up the entire screen, but for this project I felt that having the comments was a core part of the experience so it's better to have them both side by side to get context, so the mobile-like layout wins.

brador 11 hours ago [-]
Every vibe coded software I’m following has stopped updates after about a week. Is this a change of interest in the developer or did they get lost in the code slop and the AI hit context limits to quality essentially locking out further changes?
aizk 6 hours ago [-]
It depends on how much usage it gets and the demand for changes. I updated wikitok for well over a month after it went viral because people were requesting changes. Then it found a sort of homeostasis point and now I rarely update it, because there just aren't as many requests.
I'm just here to make a fun little website to pass the time it's not that deep.

People are creating projects by paying money and not time, things that they wouldn't actually invest time into.
