Created this as my own repo got a boost after sharing it through github, and proved really helpful, this can help find repos that took off due to hackernews traction

yeah that's fair. the raw list is noisy, especially the last year. points 100+ or most discussed filters out most of it. probably should make that the default, thanks for the nudge

near realtime, it checks hn every 10 minutes for new posts linking to github, and keeps refreshing points and comment counts for the first 3 days after a post. karma and github stars refresh more slowly (weekly-ish and every couple of weeks)

2. there are far too many repos shared and the results are noisy, especially over the last year
Is anyone using Karpathy's project? I checked it out and found it rather underwhelming, re: the noise problem
