Ask HN: A news reader that will give you today 30 years ago

6 pointsby mandwalmost 2 years ago
As a little bit of fun to add to the day with the coffee it would be interesting to subscribe to something like comp.lang.lisp but get what was posted at some period in the past. For example, tomorrow august the 7th my feed would show posts for August the 7th 1988. I have a feeling it may be something I would have to do myself as a nostalgia project but I wonder if someone may have addressed it already?

A subscription to newspapers.com will allow you to browse a given issue of a paper, you could easily look back and see everything on an arbitrary date.

You can do this with Wikipedia see <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.m.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Portal:Current_events&#x2F;2015_August_7" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.m.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Portal:Current_events&#x2F;2015_A...</a><p>Although the detail is less the further back you go. You may need to drop to looking at the entire month or the entire year depending on how far back you go.
