Went abroad for two weeks. Now that Im back I want to see all the good HN articles i missed over the last couple weeks. Any idea how?

Can I view articles that received over x points?

Only considers entries that made it to the front page and ranks them according to their position every 2 minutes.

Archiving since August 4, 2010.

How do you compute the points for the items?

nbrochu2• 15 years ago

I kept it simple: Reverse order = Number of points i.e. #3 on front page = 28 pts etc.

Points are accrued every time a snapshot of the front page is taken.

There is a flaw with this system in that outside of peak hours, some less important item might hang around the front page a little longer and earn a too many points but I feel that it still works well enough to catch up with HN Content.
