Impressive work! Nit on design: in first ~3 attempts to scan through the page to see if it is worth reading, i found myself stopping very early when the black background started given it usually signals a footer and end of useful content. The only reason I ended up discovering there is more content was the sanity check that if it is HN front news there has to be more to it :)

- nodoodles 6y agoAgree it is imperfect but there is too much Internet, too little time in life, therefore fast heuristics and patterns are useful :)
