    Cool to see lots of comments on real life algorithm applications, if anyone is interested in diving deeper there's a good book that came out recently called "Algorithms to Live By"…

    SyntaxDB ( https://syntaxdb.com ) was put on PH and HN and that gave it a significant increase in traffic. It was actually posted on PH once before, but that time it wasn't feature…

    So many people (including myself at times LOL) have asked for Bash. It'll be on there soon enough!

    Thanks for pointing that out! As of right now, it all gets updated manually (there's an internal CMS I built and use). As of right now, when people point out corrections they do so…

    Glad you like it! When I designed the page, I thought it would look best if the code sections were split up. Interesting feedback, I'll get some other people's thoughts on this lat…

    Yep, that has to do with the full-text search engine (Solr). There's definitely some optimizing to do, I definitely don't want additional words throwing off the search!

    The site doesn't actually support Haskell or Obj-C atm (will in the future). I also need to improve the search engine to handle queries with additional words that might give a null…

    Hey HN, I'm the developer behind SyntaxDB. This feedback is good and I encourage people to keep it coming! A lot of responses will be about "there's no result for x". You're right,…

    I've had it since it first came out, it's miles better now than it was at first and I'm sure once it hits 1.0 it'll be usable for some dev work. Still going to stick with my Ubuntu…
