Ask HN: Is it time to fork HN into AI/LLM and "Everything else/other?"
I would very much like to enjoy HN the way I did years ago, as a place where I'd discover things that I never otherwise would have come across.<p>The increasing AI/LLM domination of the site has made it much less appealing to me.

Show HN: Ten years of running every day, visualized
Today marks ten years, 3653 consecutive days, of running at least one mile every day under the USRSA rules [1]. To celebrate, I built an interactive dashboard that turns a decade of GPX files into charts you can explore.<p>Running has truly changed my life: I've made lifelong friends, explored beautiful places, and more importantly invested into my own health and fitness, which I'm starting to see the positive benefits as I get older.<p>The stack is pretty simple: a NextJS app, with a Postgres database to keep all my running data, and all the stats are pre-computed and cached in Redis, so I effectively only hit the database once a day when a new run is ingested. On the fronted, I toyed with the idea of using D3 or pre-existing data viz libraries, but ended up rolling my own using SVGs directly, it gave me more control on the visualizations.<p>I used the Strava bulk export to pre-populate the database, and I'm using their webhook API to do incremental updates. I have to tap into OpenWeatherMap and OpenCageDate to enrich the running data a little bit.<p>Happy to answer anything about the stack, data pipeline, or how I stayed motivated for 10 years!<p>[1] <a href="https://www.runeveryday.com" rel="nofollow">https://www.runeveryday.com</a> Run Streak Association rules: ≥ 1 mile per day
