This is a project I’ve been working on that extracts references to talks and videos in the stories and comments of Hacker News. I’ve extracted about 207,000 references to 95,000 unique(ish) videos. The videos are then scored using aggregations on story points and comment popularity and sentiment. Rankings are produced for the last week, month, year, and all time. This is all being updated fairly continuously using the Hacker News Firebase API.
All 95,000 videos are full-text indexed on their titles and descriptions. Matching search results are ranked by their all-time score.
