Stocks in this sector (WRIT)
Biggest vote gain between the two latest ingest runs (Oct 30, 16:20 UTC → Oct 31, 15:35 UTC, 23.3h). Launches listed since the earlier run (IPOs) are left out — their “gain” would just be first-day votes — and appear in New Listings instead. 3 matches. Spam giveaways excluded.
Traction = current votes (PH) / points (HN) — early-adopter attention, not downloads or usage. Gained = traction gained between the two latest daily ingest runs; Gain % only when the previous traction was 5+. Buzz = comments gained in that interval. “frozen” = no longer tracked, so no current gain. How it works
