Hacker News videos as 24/7 TV channels, same schedule for everyone
Visit hackertv.org ↗What is HackerTV?
HackerTV broadcasts videos recommended on Hacker News as continuous TV channels with a shared schedule. Visitors tune channels using a retro TV interface, watching the same program at the same moment regardless of when they join. The service includes channels for top-scored videos, topic-specific feeds, recent recommendations, music, and late-night content. Built with Claude Code, it runs entirely in the browser using a deterministic scheduler seeded by the clock, with no server state required.
