Make the font size smaller and center the text. Most of the screen is occupied with irrelevant data.

This is great! Can anyone suggest a place where coders can reach out to people in non-tech industries and solve real problems for a change?

Ah, the weekly "hacker news for X".

Remember when it used to be "Digg for X"?

I kinda thought subreddits took a lot of the wind out of those sails.

I am the one Indian who cannot code. I run www.fairobserver.com and, for full disclosure, you should know that Matt Owens once worked with me. I wish he could do this shit when we were working together. I am amazed at what Matt has done. As a non-tech guy, I like the clean design and its user-friendliness.

Shameless plug: I just built a Hacker News for Education, and I'd love to get some feedback/ interested users: http://educatornews.net PS Also very happy to check out OP's take on building an HN "clone". I am a math and science teacher, and keeping up with current science always makes my classes more interesting and relevant.

Have some faith and submit it as its own story. [edit: is this it https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7399336 ]

Yes. And by the way, I understand your comment. I really should have shared a more thoughtful response about this project before mentioning EN.
