I wanted to share a pet project of mine. I built HackYourNews [1] to scratch a personal itch: Knowing which stories to focus on while browsing aimlessly (though there is a certain joy in that, as well!)
HackYourNews uses OpenAI's gpt-3.5-turbo to summarize the destination article as well as the comments section. Summarization of the article is always cached, while summaries of the comments are regenerated if the comments count is >10% (or >10 comments) different.
While I styled the homepage to welcome HNers, my preferred view is the Mobile view, accessed from the navbar. This no-frills view honors OS-level dark mode and is easy to skim on any device.
Tried to keep the site minimal. The only JS is Cloudflare's privacy-preserving analytics [2], just to gauge interest.
This is the first time I'm releasing something to the wild.
Hope you find this useful!
The frontend is pure HTML+CSS.
The backend is NodeJS (Puppeteer) + Python with the excellent Microsoft Guidance [3] library to interface to OpenAI's API.
