Show HN: Hacker news front page links since last 8hrs
- daveu 8y agoCan you expand on what "since last 8hrs" means? How does this differ from the HN front page? Is it the top posts for the last 8 hours?
- abbiya 8y agoYes, it will show the top posts for last 8hrs. In 8hrs time any article that made it to front page of hn will be available. When I want to catch up on the hn activity while I was asleep I will come to this.
- teslabox 8y agoSome way to screen the submissions that have been seen already might be helpful too. Maybe a client-side javascript button, 'update now', or 'latest'?
- abbiya 8y agoa button like that will be good to program. i looked to see how it can be done. usually the links a page will be shown differently if they were visited. we cant get the visited links info from js (https://stackoverflow.com/a/7291538 https://stackoverflow.com/a/7291538). the list is updated and sometimes it will have less than 30 or more than 70 links. 30 links can be shown in a single page. when there are more than 70, a btn like above will be useful. Will definitely add this btn if the site gets regular visits. Thanks for the suggestion.
- pidu87 8y agocool. seems the HN top page doesn't sort by votes but yours seems to. Are you going to make a click-able button for 4hrs and 12 hrs etc? or maybe banned/flagged posts?
- abbiya 8y agoI think this is simple enough to be useful. Banned/Flagged posts will be striked out. 8hrs seem reasonable time frame. It is only for people who read HN mostly and contribute to HN rarely.
