I know this gets said a lot. But this is another example why I keep coming back to HN, I love all the tech talk for sure, but every once in a while, something sweet and inspirational like this gets slipped in and sometimes is just what I needed at the end of a long week.

View on HN

I tend to experience this as well. For some reason HN on the weekends has way more interesting and varied topics. The weekday crowd either comes here for more mundane topics, or marketers flood the submission queue, I can't tell which. But I love opening up HN on Saturday mornings and finding some strange retro computing topic.

A similar phenomenon also happens if you open up HN before the east coast of north america wakes up on a weekday. The topics tend to be more varied.

I live in the UK and I definitely find HN more interesting in the morning than the afternoon. It's as much a morning ritual as coffee at this point.

For similar tales in other "discipline" try Meru documentary as well.
