HN Update

Neat! Personally hourly feels a bit much but a daily briefing that can fit inside a commute or on a short walk would be perfect. Might be the first ai podcast I'd subscribe to.

Great idea! I've always wanted to catch up with tech news while walking/driving, particularly from HN.

Brilliant idea. I think this has real value as well: as I get older, I find that I have less energy for reading, but I also notice I often miss really cool stuff that was briefly…

The AI voice is good. What are you using to generate it?

This is awesome. I like it

Pretty neat but it seems to make stuff up. It took a meta comment from this post[1] about the website formatting and suggested the community was worried the C++ memory safety…

"although details remain sparse due to issues extracting content from the linked resource" Unfortunate that it adds stuff like this, which doesn't seem helpful to the listener.

Lots of positive feedback here, but after a quick listen, I'm not a fan. To summarize my thoughts... 1. The experience just feels too sluggish. For example, I opened the HN…

Why is it that some people can accept - even like - music behind a voice that tells something? I strongly dislike it. It makes it harder to listen to the voice. Am I the only one?

Love it. Reminds me of the also useful Hacker News Recap from wondercraft but it looks like that stopped updating as of October 1st…

I like this idea a lot. Archived entries would be nice as others have suggested. It would also be nice to be able to control playback speed.

Wow... Really great. Can you add some historical archive to listen n hours ago (or morning briefing like) summary as a feature?

This strikes a balance with one's use of time and "fear of missing out" (FOMO). Thank you, yunusabd, for creating this service. As a side note, I've been following HN headlines…

I'd love to see a list of the articles covered so as I'm listening I could jump to an article and get more data.

Nice. Would it be possible to add a link to the actual submission as it is being discussed?

Brilliant idea. I think this has real value as well: as I get older, I find that I have less energy for reading, but I also notice I often miss really cool stuff that was briefly…

Would be cool to create embeddings for historical HN posts, and then use a users favorite posts to personalize the post selection by averaging the embedding vectors for a users…

On a related note, what are some cheaper alternative to Open AI's text to speech? Last I checked it came out to ~$9/day for their text-to-speech.

Really neat! How was the waveform visualization achieved?

I did https://radio-hn.pages.dev/ last year in the same idea, just once per day. Posted it somewhere here at the time.

Love it. Reminds me of the also useful Hacker News Recap from wondercraft but it looks like that stopped updating as of October 1st…

Last week I had a similar idea as you. I created a webpage called https://zeli.app that automatically helps you parse the content of posts from the HN homepage, rewrite the…
