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:
hackertube.org/
- 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.

Happy birthday, John! One of my longest friends in the game industry, going back to 1990. I hope none of my blood drips on you on your special day!🩸
Steam залили нейрослопом. Текущий фестиваль демок стал самым большим в истории — в нём участвует более 8000 проектов. Это в два раза больше, чем на июньском фестивале.
Такой наплыв неслучаен — стоит «благодарить» релиз Claude Opus 5.5. Он гораздо лучше справляется с написанием кода для игр, чем прошлые модели.
Теперь каждая вторая игра не фестивале создана с помощью ИИ, пользователь под ником MurphyObv продемонстрировал это с помощью специального расширения.

It looks like pixel art, but it’s a 3D scene in @threejs.
I render it at 480 px tall and scale it up with sharp edges. The camera snaps to the pixel grid every frame, so the pixels don’t shimmer when it moves.
People have started to forget that AI will never notice them. Since no one has ever taken the servitors' jobs away

Seeing this video game store LOOTED in France genuinely breaks my heart. 💔🎮
As a lifelong gamer, this one hits close to home.
I LOVE shops like these! Walking in, browsing the games, discovering something new, and just being surrounded by gaming culture. There’s something special about that experience!
Seeing a place like this torn apart is heartbreaking. These stores mean so much to our gaming community.
Am I the only gamer who feels this way? 😢

It's been about a year since I fell in love with 3D pixel art.
In that time I built my own engine on top of @threejs, reworked it several times, and decided it was time to make my first complete game. It's small, 5–15 minutes of play, but I went through the whole loop: from an empty scene to a finished game you can play in the browser.
Meet Guardians of the Spring, a tower defense game. Hold a forest spring for 15 minutes while a ritual runs: four towers that work together, twelve waves, and a Root Golem at the end.
I'd like to keep developing it, and the engine, in devlogs, if you're interested. Tell me what you'd want to see next.
