Well, if we want HN to follow best modern web practices, I recommend rewriting the whole thing with React/Node.js using TypeScript. Then, we can get a proper CSS framework in place like Material that will really allow us to get everything looking really good. I can design a cool looking loading screen that says "HN" while the JS is loading in the background.
- noodlesUK 6y agoWell done... I nearly downvoted you from the rage I felt before realising it was sarcasm...
- vmception 6y agowithout your comment I wouldn't have detected the sarcasm, I was aghast

- blhack 6y agoAw man that sounds really cool. I bet you’ll only need a team of 5 people to do it too. What’s the tool chain manager look like for managing the build process manager?
- geerlingguy 6y agoWe should probably redeploy it on Kubernetes so the backend can scale, one c5.xlarge instance per session to keep up with the requests.
- krapp 6y agoBlockchain. No one said blockchain yet. We have to blockchain it. Blockchain it with cryptos.
- brianush1 6y agoAlso, if there's any way to incorporate machine learning algorithms into it, please try to find a way to do that.
- krapp 6y agoOf course. Obviously, we'll store the algorithm on the blockchain and train it with a custom YCombinator bitcoin that replaces karma.
- cy6erlion 6y agoAlso add a VR and AR, that will be super cool.
- krtkush 6y agoAll this will be AI powered, I assume?
- quickthrower2 6y agoThe best electricity comes from AI
- behnamoh 6y agoIronically, AI itself uses electricity.
- t4h4 6y ago5G and 8K as well.
- spyridonas 6y agoBut it will spread covid
- stormdennis 6y agoI agree. Currently HN pages load instantly which in these days can be disconcerting.
- imhoguy 6y agoAnd weights sooo little. It should have at least 10MB js framework bundle as my fiber link is bored.
- badrabbit 6y agoLet's rewrite this thing in C and compile it to webassembly!
- badrabbit 6y agoThis was sarcasm.sorry.
- bergstromm466 6y agoI think it should be Vue, what with the patents-clause with React and everything
- kristopolous 6y agocool but what will we do for next month?
- tsukurimashou 6y agodon't forget to create an electron app for it
- mmsimanga 6y agoI think you are jumping the gun. First we need a scrum master and product owner to make this Agile.
- majewsky 6y agoOh please, React is so yesteryear. With WebAssembly, we can rewrite the HN frontend in Rust! \o/
