Nice!

What I want is a /random endpoint that randomly shuffles through posts from the following "unofficial" endpoints:

https://news.ycombinator.com/shownew

https://news.ycombinator.com/pool

https://news.ycombinator.com/best

https://news.ycombinator.com/asknew

https://news.ycombinator.com/bestcomments

https://news.ycombinator.com/active

https://news.ycombinator.com/noobcomments

https://news.ycombinator.com/noobstories

https://news.ycombinator.com/newest

This is great, I use the Second Chance Pool quite but I like this also. https://news.ycombinator.com/pool

Text length? So this is focused on Show HN:'s and Asks? That's cool to find missed projects people have submitted, but considering a majority of posts interesting and not are just links, seems like a lot of 'gems' are gonna be missed. Look to the Pool (https://news.ycombinator.com/pool) for that I suppose.

I tried it and it's just a list of posts about AI

Looks like you need to sanitize the titles. There's a post on the 8th page now that has an <input> tag that's getting rendered and is clickable.

So "passion score" just finds long posts that were not interacted with? I'm not sure it's a proxy for quality.

I really like this idea. Every so often I’ll come across a weeks, months or years old thread that I’d like to have been able to participate in at the time or that has interesting or useful information.

I guess you haven’t figured out the time travel issue yet, but being able to find quality older threads is definitely something I like.

Perhaps a filter option to help people find specific kinds of topic could be added? :)

Cool, found this gem with it.

very cool

Just watch new. Most of the time only the bullshit articled gets upvoted and you miss the nifty ones if checking the frontpage only.

can you add a "find controversial comments" feature? controversial posts would be nice, but I don't think downvoting posts is available
