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!

I like it. It kind of reminds me of the old Fever RSS reader, which would group together similar articles from different sources, and use that to rank how hot a story was.

Not familiar with fever, but there is something similar buried at the heart of mine - the LLM clusters stories, and they get promoted to public when they reach a threshold of unique sources.

That threshold is a function of day of the week - on weekends when the news cycle is quiet, it lowers the bar --- tuesday to thursday its at its most restrictive.
