Ask HN: Follow-up: I found it

Over a year ago, I posted this Ask HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41156962

I finally found what I was looking for. I did in fact have it buried away in my bookmarks somewhere.

For the hell of it I cut-n-pasted your original post into Google's AI mode which all of a sudden got really good in the last few weeks, particularly for the kind of question that you were asking where you are trying to find something that you saw a while back. It said

   Based on your description, the project you likely saw on Hacker News was
   stagit. It is known for creating an extremely minimal, bare-bones website 
   for a Git repository by generating static HTML pages.

It strikes me as pretty similar to your link! I have found many cases like "Is Strike Witches a kemonomimi anime?" where the site summary gives the wrong answer and the new AI mode gives the right answer.

LLMs are amazing at familiarity problems like this. The downside is that the answer has to be present in the training data.
