This looks like it is just crawling HN, and using Algolia to provide a search over that data. What exactly are you hacking?

  If by "hack" you mean "break/exploit/...", I totally agree. But hackatons are more codefests, calling "hack" every piece of code written in a short amount of time. That's only my 4-hours project implementing a custom crawler, work-arounding black-listing, and indexing it with Algolia. BTW, I'll write a blog post explaining the underlying ranking algorithm, which is the real point.

    It looks like it's only a couple of days of data. Are you crawling the pages directly or using the existing api [1]? [1] https://www.hnsearch.com/api https://www.hnsearch.com/api
