Usage with Fenic

This dataset is optimized for use with Fenic, a PySpark-inspired DataFrame framework that enables:

Quick Start

from fenic.api import Session

# Create session and load data
session = Session.get_or_create()
stories = session.read.parquet("hf://datasets/typedef-ai/hacker-news-dataset/data/2025_stories.parquet")

# Analyze top discussions
top_discussions = (
    stories
    .filter(stories["descendants"] > 100)
    .order_by(stories["score"].desc())
    .select("title", "score", "descendants", "url")
    .limit(10)
)

Advanced Analysis

# Find AI/ML discussions with semantic search
from fenic.api.functions import semantic

ai_stories = (
    stories
    .filter(stories["title"].rlike("(?i)(artificial intelligence|machine learning|\\bAI\\b|\\bML\\b)"))
    .with_column("summary", 
        semantic.extract(
            stories["title"], 
            "Extract key AI/ML topics discussed",
            output_type=str
        )
    )
)

# Analyze comment sentiment
comments = session.read.parquet("hf://datasets/typedef-ai/hacker-news-dataset/data/2025_comments.parquet")
sentiment_analysis = comments.select(
    semantic.extract(
        comments["text"],
        "Determine if this comment is positive, negative, or neutral",
        output_type=["positive", "negative", "neutral"]
    ).alias("sentiment")
)

Example Research Questions

Technology Trends: What technologies gained the most traction in 2025?
Discussion Patterns: How do comment threads evolve on controversial topics?
Community Dynamics: Who are the most influential users by karma vs. engagement?
Content Analysis: What makes a story reach the front page?
Sentiment Tracking: How does the community sentiment vary across different topics?

Loading the Dataset
