_3rujon Show HN: Phind V2 – A GPT-4 agent that’s connected to the internet and your code

> We implemented some cost-saving measures in April/May,

Do you announce these major changes anywhere, outside of perhaps dropping a reply (which you may not even pin) on the Discord chat?

Some form of changelog would serve all users.

Not feasible to entirely trim the results myself. Many programs host the documentation on their own domain and an absolute ton, especially smaller projects, don't have any online presence. I was wondering if you could maintain a database on Phind's end.

Do you monitor your `founders@` email inbox or is the dreaded Discord server the only real way to give feedback? Are you planning to create a public issue tracker... which can be indexed by search engines?

Are the 'cached' pages eventually deleted? I've seen some shared `https://www.phind.com/search?cache=*` URLs which redirect to the Phind landing page.

Wiping these pages would not be good from the preservation standpoint, especially since the URL doesn't seem human-readable.

Have you implemented any logic to prioritize official in-house documentation such as the software `man` pages and the output of the `--help` flag?

>You don't even need images — just use unicode arrow or triangle characters. e.g. ▲

_3rujon Ask HN: Why the HN comment layout uses GIF elements?

>What's wrong with the icons being GIFs?

Nothing necessarily in this case, I just assumed that a vector image format would be much smaller and obviously scales with the resolution (how much that matters for the arrows, I don't know).

_3rujon Ask HN: How to follow Mozilla's software release notes (i.e. changelogs)?

>You can use "kill the newsletter"[0] for this.

>[0] https://kill-the-newsletter.com/

I see, if Mozilla has a dedicated newsletter. Filtering may be trivial of they use descriptive titles (e.g. changelog announcements always have the "release notes" wording).
