I built a similar tool that profiles/roasts your HN account: https://hn-wrapped.kadoa.com/

It’s funny and occasionally scary

Very neat, this kind of classification & sentiment analysis with flavour text is a use case where LLMs really shine.

For whatever reason, I'm getting an error in the Server Components render when trying my username. My first thought was that it might be due to having no submissions, just comments — but other users with no submissions appear to work just fine.

Ironically, running your username works for me, but not my own. Maybe you can view it now? https://hn-wrapped.kadoa.com/gavinray?share

Touche LLM

>After a year of contemplating game engines and existential dread about capitalism, you'll finally start that 2D game. It'll be a minimalist pixel art RPG where the main quest is 'afford insulin' and the final boss is 'the federal minimum wage'.

Amazing.

Thanks!

I feel seen

Pretty funny, I like it! Though the data seems biased towards more recent posts/comments and also submissions.

Predictions:

"You'll discover a hitherto unknown HN upvote black hole, where all your well-reasoned, nuanced comments on economic precarity get sucked into oblivion while a 'Show HN: My To-Do List in Rust' gets 500 points."

This is aggregious, good job

> Your comments often feature detailed technical explanations or corrections, leading me to believe you're either a deeply passionate technologist or you just love being the smartest person in the room. Probably both, let's be honest.

Absolutely savage.

This is great/hilarious, thank you.

Great summary! Nice toy!

Feels like the predictions part picks a few random posts and generates predictions just based on one post at a time though.

It would be much funnier and/or insightful if it sampled more than the first page of user comments.

Still, spot on:

Predictions

Personal Projects

After a deep dive into archaic data storage, you'll finally release 'Magnetic Tape Master 3000' – a web-based app that simulates data retrieval from a reel-to-reel, complete with authentic 'whirring' sound effects. It'll be a niche hit with historical computing enthusiasts and anyone who misses the good old days of physical media.

Finally I am understood.

I use something similar to profile users on my company platform. Conventionally, LLMs are excessively "nice" and I found that having them "roast" a user does a better job at surfacing important, curious, or contradictory information. Plus, it's pretty funny.

Brutal, and very accurate. This is great!

> HN's grumpy, yet insightful, truth-teller

Ouch.

The Roast section was hilariously cutting, and not untrue.

Top Three Technologies: Are these supposed to be my favorites? Or just what I post about? Either way it got them wrong.

Predictions: I didn't know LLMs were capable of that type of sarcasm. Very clever.

Kudos
