Hacker News Stats: 2007–2022

  • This is anecdotal and my personal observation. Otherwise, everything else is pretty unpredictable for me to care enough. :-)

    - Stories are calmer and stay longer in European day-time.

    - Things almost never happens during Asian day-time.

    - It is fast, quick, short, and also quick to die during Western day-time (Americas).

  • I kinda give up on submitting. TBF, I only likely see the power of moderation when it applies to me, but it's getting weird at this point.

    The bonking of some posts (-200 ranking all of a sudden) is getting odd.

  • Google probably stopped updating BigQuery when they started hosting live Hacker News data in Firebase: https://github.com/HackerNews/API

    The live nature of the Firebase data is awesome, but the lack of ability to query is a loss.

  • I would love to see Android vs. IPhone stats.
