Hacker News Reader

HN is built on Arc, a dialect of Lisp and runs on a single box. More details here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28478379

They use algolia for search

Unrelated, but I find searching hackernews through google is much better. Especially because it also puts comments into search results

Algolia can search HN comments.

It depends, but I really like Algolia for topic searching

We should make the same thread, but "wrong answers only". I would have a lot to contribute haha

The html design is based on a big table tag.

If I had to guess I'd say HTML, CSS and JavaScript.

Don't forget HTTP, SSL and TCP/IP

Was this supposed to be a joke?

Ask HN: What's HN tech stack?
