Awesome! Too bad jokes category does not have a lot of content, pity.
I think something needs to be done about that. But, humour is almost universally subjective. There are some aspects of Obama-Care that I thought were highly amusing, especially the "500 million lines of code" gag. Here is a very serious article about the C programming language. http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/C_programming_language
This is super useful! I have been forcing myself off HN lately. One thing that I miss the most due to this is the SHOW:HNs of really cool products and hacks that hit the front page. This gives me a great month-to-month access to those great stories at one place. Bookmarked!
You might want to checkout my newsletter which includes the best "show hn" links each week - http://hackernewsletter.com. It also helps with the HN addiction.
This is interesting. But it's not quite sync with the News on the first page. What do you sort by? If it works well, I'd like to use it.
Thanks. It crawls HN topics every one hour. So news in our application would delay up to one hour.
That may help with analyzing comment content at least. Not so much with news rankings though.
Also, I believe you haven't escaped the time field properly server-side, I see "item.time_str" where I imagine the item time should be dynamically displayed.
Could you please add a category "All but NSA"

Pretty neat! FYI: I just noticed your time calculations aren't working. Search for "item.time_str" on your indexes.

If you're hitting HN's access thresholds, you might consider incrementally parsing data from http://hnstream.com That may help with analyzing comment content at least. Not so much with news rankings though.
You're right. I have limited frequency of crawling due to HN's access thresholds.
hnstream will help me. I will try it.
Tagging of links (mostly hn), without the NLP. http://gcdc2013-hackerio.appspot.com/
