interesting, is this indexing in realtime?

Comment by murtazayusuf 3 hours ago

near realtime, it checks hn every 10 minutes for new posts linking to github, and keeps refreshing points and comment counts for the first 3 days after a post. karma and github stars refresh more slowly (weekly-ish and every couple of weeks)

not the first, there have been a ton of copy cats since Karpathy's project

Oh, too late ig, thanks for sharing it. I think that is only a snapshot, hackergit refreshes the list.

1. the copy cat nature is one part of the problem

2. there are far too many repos shared and the results are noisy, especially over the last year

Is anyone using Karpathy's project? I checked it out and found it rather underwhelming, re: the noise problem

yeah that's fair. the raw list is noisy, especially the last year. points 100+ or most discussed filters out most of it. probably should make that the default, thanks for the nudge
