hn.premii.com VS Arc Programming Language

I m that cynical boomer. I use mostly apps like Whatsapp, and garage door opener. Can't use banks apps as you can only login to one account. Everything I do is on the browser. https://hn.premii.com & https://reddit.premii.com - almost 10 years old, it still works. No need to update the framework or need someone's approval. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

If you don't comment, https://hn.premii.com works pretty good without extension or anything. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

I personally use https://hn.premii.com for the topic on the left and the conversation on the right. Customizing the colors is also nice. The drawback is there doesn't appear to be a good way to participate in the conversation. How does everyone else ingest HN? - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

Here is a list of alternative UIs for HN: https://blog.luke.lol/tech/hacker-news-alternatives/ Two that display comments: https://hackerweb.app/ https://hn.premii.com/ I don't know how good they are with screenreaders. - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

Well, kind of, at least considering the last public version of Arc, that HN uses (found here: http://arclanguage.org/) It seems to be storing stuff directly on disk, on the same host that the software itself runs on. So you're right if you consider the filesystem a sort of database, but otherwise no :). - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

>Where is the HN source code right now? Free and Open? Yes and no. HN itself is running a proprietary fork of Arc Lisp, which you can find here[0]. The Arc maintainters don't take public PRs or feature requests, and HN itself has numerous changes to the codebase which aren't public for business reasons. There is a public fork of Arc called Anarki[1] which has no direct connection to HN or Arc Lisp, and for which... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

Dammit, I thought this was about Arc language (the language/platform that HN uses, http://arclanguage.org/). Guess I'm stuck with using Anarki still. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

The original version was open sourced (Perl artistic License) http://arclanguage.org/ There is an active fork in https://github.com/arclanguage/anarki but it's totally independent and the current conde in HN can be (very) different. My guess is that it's very difficult to keep all the details of the secret sauce hidden. They change the details very often. For... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago
