In what appears to be his first post on a new blog, Zach Perkel tackles when, precisely, AI took over Hacker News. I subscribe to an feed of Hacker News page one articles. The sheer volume of AI-related submissions is bleak, almost as bleak as whatever happened to page one subsequent to the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election. There may now be more AI posts than references to Kagi (if you know, you know). I have applied Miniflux filters to block much of what I consider to be the noise. That has significantly reduced the number of items in the feed. At some point I may think about using Hacker News RSS to create a more curated feed, more likely to yield articles of interest to me. Did I just give myself a new article topic?
