dang, do you tag topics somewhere and can pull up these summaries quickly? Or do you search for `Piraha` on the title and comments?

- fogihujy 6y agoLooks like something from a bookmark collection of someone interested in the topic.
- eindiran 6y agoI believe dang uses Algolia to search for past threads: https://hn.algolia.com/ https://hn.algolia.com/
- dang 6y agoI just use HN Search along with client-side software to make it easier to build these lists. I described this at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26158300 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26158300 but have since written more code. It's still kind of a primitive process but much faster than before.
- raihansaputra 6y agoThanks for your answer! > The endgame is probably not to fully automate these lists but to have software generate a starter version and then give the community ways to edit it. I agree. There has been a lot of recurring-interesting topics discussed on HN but there's no one place to tag them all. Relying on you/someone else to pop up and give the curated links is currently the only way for others to know what have been discussed before.
