About this channel
What the channel posts
This channel is not run by Hacker News or Y Combinator: it is fed by an open source bot built by an individual developer. As soon as a story on the well-known aggregator passes a given score, it is posted here automatically. Each message shows the title, the score reached and how long it took, followed by two short links, one to the article and one to the comments.
Topics mirror the community’s interests: programming and languages, systems and hardware, security and privacy, artificial intelligence, startups, science and the occasional broader essay. The site’s own discussion threads, where members share what they are working on, show up too.
Who it is for
It is meant for developers, sysadmins and technology enthusiasts who read English and want to follow what the community is talking about without opening the site several times a day.
Good to know
The feed is busy, with dozens of posts a day, and fully automated: there is no human curation and no summary. Small pictograms separate stories climbing fast from those that took several days to reach the threshold. You will probably want to mute notifications if you subscribe.
