I had occasion to search HN history, on a couple of occasions in the past week. I tried DDG, but didn't get a result until I tried Goo - which I try hard to avoid. It was on page 3 of the result-set. I'd expect a site search to be better-focused. I'm not working on anything. And I haven't literally been searching for an entire week. I've just ended up more than once in the past week trying to find the search UI, and giving up. I'm grateful for someone picking up my lost front-door-keys for me. Perhaps I shouldn't go out without my carer :-)
