I made an HN clone that lists only Substacks posted here. - Why? Over the years, I've discovered some great blogs here, so I thought it would be nice to have a filter for them. - Why only Substacks then and not blogs more generally? Because it's easy to query for "substack.com" in the public HN Algolia API (see below). Plus, hnblogs was already taken :) - What about substacks on custom domains then?

Get in. Lock in. Get cooked! In the first 3 hours, we had an actual FPS we could play together in the browser. Next day I invited my friend's two kids over. Suddenly, I had four PMs. We had 3 laptops, 1 iPad and 1 iPhone. So in 30mins we added mobile support and could play all 5 together. The kids would ask for features: "Can we have a rocket launcher that knocks people off the map?" "The knife should stab faster when you hold it." I know al
