These are actually completely different, though the titles are similar since they’re trying to solve the same problem. But not one line of code is the same, the solution is different, etc. The only thing that is the same is the problem we’re trying to solve and the domain. And… apparently the HN title.
The old one was just a list of tweets from the Twitter search API with an arrow that allowed people to move them up and down or.
The new one is a functioning newsroom, we do some machine learning to bring in youtube videos/tweets that we’ve identified to be relevant to a specific story, allow people to up vote, confirm or refute (while providing a link), take that all into some stuff we do on the back end and spit out content sized according to its importance (as a function of time, relevance, votes and fact checks).
