Good idea, noted

Exactly, I found lots of weird moments in history on the most random topics ever.

I let the LLM generate hundreds of terms and ran a “shock value” metric script to discover the interesting ones.

Yeah I feel like hackernews trends is alright but the post title is a bit misleading, noted

Yeah we had to refill the dataset due to an error, it will be fixed in a few minutes

Thanks for the feedback, noted the full-screen request.

The sentiment analysis is very interesting, I can do that easily. Could be a new page as well. Did you see this anywhere else or just your idea?

What is missing from it? I've used ngrams as well and I this was partly inspired by that.

Great idea actually, I'll add that as well for sure

We had to take the site down for a second, it'll be online in a few minutes. Thanks for trying it out

Hello HN,

This was a small project of mine after I've found out that I can simply the whole hackernews archive (~48GB) and play around with it.

You can compare terms just like in google trends and you can also see the exact posts & comments from that time.

I like that you can discover what went crazy in the timeline, they just come up as small burst of activity, it's quite fun to play around with it. https://hackernewstrends.com/?q=litecoin&q=dogecoin&q=solana...

I also have a seperate page for the "Who is Hiring?" posts, here is the distribution of programming languages over each monthly "Who is hiring?" post in HN ever. https://hackernewstrends.com/who-is-hiring

Any kind of feedback is welcome.
