Analyzing 40 Million Hacker News Items: User Behavior, Story Scoring, and Content Trends

Hello,

I've conducted an extensive analysis of \~40 million items from Hacker News, exploring user behavior, the scoring system, and how content trends have evolved from 2006 to the present.

I've also open-sourced the code for anyone interested in the data or methodology.

Here's the link to the full analysis and code: [https://blog.osm-ai.net/2024/04/01/hn-part-1.html](https://blog.osm-ai.net/2024/04/01/hn-part-1.html)

Any feedback or additional thoughts are welcome!
