Ask HN: A similar forum/news aggregate site, but mostly for math, physics, CS?
As the title says. Looking for a HN alternative with intelligent user base minus the stories about Snowden and NSA, tablet reviews, JS frameworks, anti-procrastination articles and latest gossip about programmer celebrities.
Yes, I know about Reddit, and no, I'm not happy with it.
- t0 13y agoQuite a few clones have been popping up. Here's the latest: http://theidler.org/ http://theidler.org/ You can find the HN source or create your own. It's definitely worth a shot.
- incision 13y agoI wish I knew. As it stands, I can keep my queue full via sites like High Scalability [0], Research at Google [1], Arxiv [2] and a long list of "Architecture at X" blogs that post sporadically. On HN I probably spend more time scanning the "new" queue here than the Front Page. Plenty of quality submissions never gain traction. Obviously, that's just content. I don't have a solution for the lack of community. 0: http://highscalability.com/ http://highscalability.com/ 1: http://research.google.com/ http://research.google.com/ 2: http://arxiv.org/ http://arxiv.org/
