I tagged all comments from "What Are You Working On?" (like https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45561428) posts and built a simple SvelteKit website, hope it's helpful to find people with similar projects. I'm also thinking of adding some analysis of project types over time to see changes in tech

What's the default sorting algorithm?

I just posted recently in the thread so would have expected to see my post somewhere on this site near the front page. Granted, I guess HN already has a new/hot algorithm, so perhaps you didn't want to reinvent the wheel and instead focus on search.

Ideas:

1. Optionally allow all pages to be shown at once (no pagination).

2. Provide a "download all as JSON" button.

3. Allow the use of an LLM to filter through these comments.

I was planning to do this for every single post ever made in this category with traffic tracking, linkedin profiles of people at work, how much funding have they raised or how much ARR / MRR for bootstrapped projects. how many are open source on github but you beat me to it lol

Great idea! I'd love to see some stats on the high and low level tags.

What is the system behind the distinction between “high-level” and “low-level” tags? For example, why is "artificial intelligence" high level, but "cloud computing" low level? Why is "tool" on both levels for the same entry?

I have a new computing architecture hard/soft/comms from the ground up and a new AGI model. New algorithms for GC and defrag. New O(1) sorting algorithm.

- List of available tags would be even cooler.

- When you select some tags, list can overflow horizontally and first column with tags is only partially visible. Happened to me when selecting "hardware" tag.

- When you select prev/next or tag, list could scroll to top

- It also often picks up irrelevant comments: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45421459

Thank you for this. I did a search filter on my username and have a good memory trace back. I really need it!
