How this was computed
Articles in the Skillenai news index are grouped into event clusters at enrichment time (hybrid embedding, BM25, and entity-overlap candidate search plus an LLM join-vs-new judge). The Trending ranking weights each article's outlet and author authority by how recently it was published — an exponential decay with a 2-hour half-life — so a story's score halves for every two hours of age. Over the rolling 24-hour window this surfaces stories with fresh, well-covered momentum rather than the day's cumulative leaders. Article and outlet counts still reflect the full 24-hour window; only the order changes.
