Wrote my own RSS feeder. It ingests 3000 articles a day from 100 feeds and picks out 300 a day to show me, I thumbs up or thumbs down every one of those and it trains a machine learning model to pick the next 300.
At least that’s the plan. It also shows me the “top 100 likely to front page HN” and “top 100 likely to get a lot of comments on HN” and I scan those quickly. I usually take more than a day to read the 300 which is OK because more articles go into the process so what is selected is even better. If you look at what I submit to HN those articles were all selected by YOShInOn first and me second.
That’s a good idea of what my feed looks like but I also like articles about sports which I rarely submit to HN.
