Can you expand on what "since last 8hrs" means? How does this differ from the HN front page? Is it the top posts for the last 8 hours?


Yes, it will show the top posts for last 8hrs. In 8hrs time any article that made it to front page of hn will be available.

When I want to catch up on the hn activity while I was asleep I will come to this.


Some way to screen the submissions that have been seen already might be helpful too.

Maybe a client-side javascript button, 'update now', or 'latest'?


a button like that will be good to program. i looked to see how it can be done. usually the links a page will be shown differently if they were visited. we cant get the visited links info from js (https://stackoverflow.com/a/7291538).

the list is updated and sometimes it will have less than 30 or more than 70 links. 30 links can be shown in a single page. when there are more than 70, a btn like above will be useful. Will definitely add this btn if the site gets regular visits.

Thanks for the suggestion.


cool. seems the HN top page doesn't sort by votes but yours seems to.

Are you going to make a click-able button for 4hrs and 12 hrs etc? or maybe banned/flagged posts?


I think this is simple enough to be useful. Banned/Flagged posts will be striked out. 8hrs seem reasonable time frame. It is only for people who read HN mostly and contribute to HN rarely.
