An honest to god, non-algorithmic reverse chrono list of tech news that passes my signal-to-noise tests, updated hourly.

A lightweight a page design as I've been able to keep; simple, clean, fast. No commercial features or aspirations - this is a passion project, something I've been fooling around with on and off for decades.

There's a "Top" view too with an LLM edited front page & summary, and categorized views for a large number of topics - see the Directory. A few more buried features to explore, but the fundamental use case is pop in, scan, exit - fast and concise.

Your feedback would be appreciated!

Really nice and clean, well done.

What is the purpose of having summaries for "Recent", "Incoming", and "Outgoing" all at the top? Seems like all content from the later two are in the first, right?

You're right --- incoming & outgoing end up being redundant on the "Recent" view.

Where they're (more) relevant is in the "Top" view where the LLM editor has picked a subset of stories to be categorized as top and incoming/outgoing are the ones that didn't make the cut, organized by timeliness.

Definitely a gap in design!

Oh I should add: incoming will show stories ~20 minutes before they get picked up for "Top" inclusion, if they're going to make the cut, based on how jobs are scheduled.
