  • Very cool! There seems to be a bug here: https://hackernewstrends.com/?q=vim&q=emacs&q=zed

    For some reason the results cut off at 2018-10 even though "Popular Comparisons" preview shows more.

  • The huge spike of "lk-99" in science & frontier tech is amusing...

    This is cool concept, would love a positive/negative sentiment computed for each comment that refers to a given word, so you can see trends of "cloudflare (positive)" vs "cloudflare (negative)" where first one counts comments only if sentiment confidence is greater than say 0.6 and the other one counts comments only if sentiment is less than 0.4 (assuming [0,1] sentiment score)

  • Reminds me of this side project I'm working on.

    https://gitlab/here_forawhile/torum

    It's a HN clone, that syncs with HN that allows you to basically establish smaller private communities who can discuss anything that's on HN without actually being on HN.

    It also indexes and let's you search through the DB which I find is really useful to find things that peak my interest.

  • One useful feature would be to normalize by total so that I can see changes in something as opposed to just total site growth. Right now I have to chart a single generic parameter but if I pick poorly it’ll confuse the issue.

  • Google Trends is about searches

    This is about published text. More like if Google Trends counted word occurrences on webpages. Or if Google Ngrams counted webpages instead of books

    People don't write much about non-newsworthy things whereas many people search "burger" anytime they want a burger delivery. The datasets aren't usable in the same way

    Edit: not to say it's not a cool product! Just keep this in mind and enjoy using it :)

  • I host a publicly open database with Hacker News data at https://play.clickhouse.com/play?user=play#U0VMRUNUICogRlJPT...

    So you can create any sort of similar services in a single SQL query and an HTML page.

    I also hosted it as a publicly accessible data lake, which you can query from everywhere: https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/29693#issuec...

    It is also updated in real-time.
