Show HN: Wikihack – HackerTube, but for Wikipedia articles mentioned on HN

(wikihack.netlify.app)

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.

Coming soon: HackerHackerTube, my website that recommends HackerTube variants posted on HN!

I can't wait for the HackerHacker: HackerNews comments cited by other HackerNews comments

Now just add a ranking

Obviously the dropbox comment would be the most cited. But I wonder what number two would be

Waiting for HackerMusic and HackerGames...

Podcasts would be one I might actually be interested in

HackerUsers: List of HN accounts and their skill set. Since I already got emails from my HN comments I'm sure some big consultancy companies already have this in place.

What a sad dystopian future...

reply
If I had time, I’d do HackerOverflow - all threads where HN users help answer technical questions and help debugging!
reply
That's going to be a very short list then.

I really also meant nested in discussions on other submissions, not just Ask HN - I have found amazing gems hidden downthread of posts through the years, sometimes from internet legends or high-profile maintainers directly.
reply
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).

Hey, nice, I built roughly the same during the covid era pre AI.

We have a continuously updated, publicly accessible hackernews database in BigQuery, in case more of you folks are interested in building similar projects:

Clickhouse equivalent, updated in real-time: https://play.clickhouse.com/play?user=play#U0VMRUNUIG1heCh0a...

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

I would just love it if the front page were full of "Show HN: HackerFoo" posts for two weeks now.

Show HN: Peak Passive Aggressive comments; flagged, dead, and eerily popular !

I mean the hype cycles usually don't last that long anymore these days? It will get old by Friday.

Coming soon: HackerHacker, HackerX, HackerGitHub, HackerAliExpress and HackerP*nHub!
reply
But seriously, please don't burn any more tokens to make any of these real

well I made this for Reddit and HN:

The travel opinions on a map are pretty neat: https://www.trustmebro.reviews/c/travel?view=map

Let's raise the bar. Create HackerDump - it's like HackerNews but only shows the articles you read in the toilet...
reply
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…
reply
There's so many dead domains though.
reply
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.

reply
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.
reply
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?
reply
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.
reply
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 )

reply
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.
reply
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.
reply
How about a light themed version for those of us with vision problems?
reply
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.

Show HN: Hacker News - HackerTube, but for articles posted on HN.
reply
Can someone just gather up all the media types that HN recommends and put them in one collection?

I get it: HN people give generally good recommendations to the HN crowd.

Next up: Hacker Games, Hacker Niche Social Media sites, Hacker Enterpreneurship blogs, Hacker Art, Hacker Instagram Channels To Follow.

Bundle it and call it: Hacker Index or something ;-)

Sweet. Now I just need someone to build one for phone apps, one for desktop software, and one for Web apps and I think I'll be all sorted.

Can we next do FruitHack? HackerTube, but for fruits mentioned on HN

We are now past the "intellectual curiosity" era of Show HN and it has now entered into its fast food slop age.
reply
I also doubt that youtube thing would have made it as high as it did if not for Karpathy.
reply
Yeah influence has always had a huge effect but nowadays it feels like it starts to be the only thing that has an effect, as all these curiosity projects are low effort.
reply
Mmmm Karpathy slop
reply
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?
reply
People are creating projects by paying money and not time, things that they wouldn't actually invest time into.

I suspect that this fad will die out when LLM capabilities are no longer as exciting.

reply
It is because it makes $0 and they spend $100 - $1,000 on tokens.
reply
looks like slop though
