I think it may have been unclear, as I was told:

not _only_ headlines are indexed, as we know it from other HN-Searches. The sites behind the outgoing links from HN&co are indexed.

So, one could say, that is a "real" HN Search. :)

Good sunday evening everyone at HN.

That one came out as a little side project, as I am crawling anyways everything around hacker-news. I thought its useful to me, it could be useful to others. :)

Happy to hear your opinions.

I was looking for https://github.com/square/cube with the keywords 'square cube' and didn't hit it in the top 100 results. Adding a third keyword 'series' didn't help either.

Is that page perhaps out of the scope of the index?

When I search for the first two with the Algolia search I get a hit in the top 3.

Also, what do you think about indexing the page screenshots too :)?

Hi, unfortunately the link you are looking for was on HN about 3 years ago - I started indexing everything from Oct 2014. Incrementally adding more information like HN Points, HN Comments, etc...

I am taking screenshots already, but had no time to activate that functionality (e.g. test it).

The index is still rather small, indeed, but hey, it keeps growing and growing...

edit: Example right from the HN Main-Page - try to look in Algolia for http://search.nagrgtr.com/#/search?q=greater%20than%2030kmh%...

The example you provided is impressive! Best of luck

Man, you're crazy, how much disk space does this consume? It seems awesome.

hehe, thanks, I'll take it as a compliment :D

Not so much yet, around 1.5GiB.
