- pkaeding 10y agoWhat is the story here? Are the comments generated by some clever Markov chain based on real HN comments? This looks like it might be an interesting weekend project; tell me more?
- orf 10y agoHey! I made this a year ago and submitted it then[1], but I recently updated the database and 'recreated' the site, and figured I would re-submit it. It's a big markov chain built with all the HN submitted data that I made over a weekend. I think some of the stories/comments are strangely pretty realistic! Edit: Maybe the title wasn't clear, I've re-submitted it with a changed title. 1. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10248773 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10248773
