It seems much too close to the original Show HN to have a second one two days later. The rules (https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html) say: "New features and upgrades ("Foo 1.3.1 is out") generally aren't substantive enough to be Show HNs. A major overhaul is probably ok."
This may not technically be a new feature but slight variations on the same thing are very much in the bucket that that rule is meant to address.
This is a special case of a more general issue: follow-up posts [1] are not great for HN because they are repetitive, and curiosity withers under repetition. The test we apply is whether a post contains significant new information [2].
I see the problem: I read the date in American format (mm/dd/yyyy) and it's dd/mm/yyyy. That's a very confusing date format, yyyy/mm/dd is better as an international format.
This is useful! I was hoping for something based on topic modelling [0] though. Keywords are useful, but often are out of context. e.g. I looked for "writing", and many of the matches have nothing to do with writing as topic, but simply mention it in the headline.
Conversely, there are often topics in the post that are not in the headline.
Unfortunately their API doesn't seem to support the one feature I've wanted from any hackernews API: writing a query that only shows posts that got removed from the front page for being flagged.
That would be a very interesting thing to know, I've noticed that certain topics seem to be considered (by some) to be not appropriate for discussion. It's quite interesting if you think about it, because the ability to notice any trends is affected by the very phenomenon itself.
Tracking flagged/removed comments would be very interesting. I have a hunch that there might be some interesting patterns there beyond obvious trolls or bigotry.
This looks like something I had in mind a few months ago, but my idea morphed into an HN iOS app client with some extra bells and whistles, not published yet, needs a few more tweaks to pass the app store review.
Anyways this is great, thinking if I could integrate some features into the app.

That would be amazing, but that story was Jan 10th. The next one was Jan 21st.
Also not the oldest, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22000761 is a day earlier, and refers to a BBC report dated Jan 9th
