Hacker News Reader

Is anyone able to scrape Bloomberg news? For years now they have no RSS and have made it very difficult to create one.

Open RSS does https://openrss.org/www.bloomberg.com

Has feeds for deep-linked sections too https://openrss.org/www.bloomberg.com/technology

You will need to go through archive.is if you want to bypass the paywall and get the full article, not just the summary.

Typing this in the console:

  $$("div[data-component='headline']")

would select all titles in the home page. It shouldn't be super hard to build an RSS file using beautifulsoup for example. Can you be more specific about what you would need?
