Weekend hack: HackerTube. I was annoyed with YouTube's recommendations so I had Claude filter down 43M comments over 20 years of HN to 6,454 videos that keep being recommended. *Significantly* better viewing experience, ~2 hours with Opus 5.5:

- Excellent recs without any logins (state is kept in local browser session)
- Thumbnail is a representative frame from middle of the video instead of the super duper A/B test hyper-optimized user uploads
- Underlying data from the comment analysis as one zip file, point your Claude at it and ask for your own version
- HackerTube Longs ✊
A bit more on the process:
I use Claude Code (desktop app for Mac), Opus 5.5 on Medium effort as my default. I only talk to Claude and have it do everything, the only "manual work" I helped with in tandem was in the browser (reminiscent of MenuGen): 1) I had to create some kind of API key from Google Cloud UI to query YouTube for video metadata, 2) I booted up a VPS box for serving and 3) I bought the domain name. Once the box was up I gave Claude the IP and told it update, secure, harden, deploy and optimize the code, and it did the whole thing.
Many awesome projects that would have normally taken weeks/months even can now be few-shotted for breakfast. What else are we not thinking of.
Stealth Factory's first project is Leo, a CLI sidekick that lets you scaffold and quickly create custom commands and run them through a unified interface. It's highly configurable and ships with a JSON data store accessible from the same interface.

In response to an AI slop post in a group chat I asked if we could have a norm of not doing that and the person got very upset 👀

I accidentally let my paid subscription run on to the next month on @Railway, but I didn't get charged because there was no use. Instead of charging me a flat fee, they have a usage based fee. Since there was no usage, I wasn't charged this month. This is awesome! <3
I'm glad people are liking our little mascot, Rexie! I'm proud to say that Rexie, along with all our beautiful deck icons were all drawn by human artists. And I think you can feel that in the way they look and feel compared to other software. True artistry at work.
From that gold medal in Beijing in 2008 to an unforgettable career, making history every step of the way with La Albiceleste. 🥇🇦🇷
Congratulations, Leo, for continuing to make Argentina’s jersey even more iconic! 🐐👏
I've upgraded my app called Draw (v1) to a more modern stack and now it's called Scribbling. Give it a shot at https://t.co/JHwXde7Gbl
