I created this for myself (it took maybe two minutes to make). It limits your search results to Hacker News and Reddit's Programming section. The results were skewed in favor of Reddit, so I added "Hacker News" as a hint keyword, which creates a more balanced search result distribution.
It is probably not as complete as the dedicated Hacker News search someone else created, but it does span two sites, which is helpful (to me anyway).
- xirium 18y agoNice. Could you also do a Hacker News only search?
- diego 18y agoYou can do this by adding the tem site:news.ycombinator.com to a regular Google (or Yahoo) search. Yahoo claims to have about 600k indexed pages from this domain, Google about 166k.
- xirium 18y agoThere's about 186,000 posts and about 7,000 non-lurking users. So, Google is incomplete and Yahoo is doing something odd. Alternatively, both figures maybe the result of approximate counting artifacts and both could have complete and current indexes.
