Super cool to hear you were considering using the site for all your technical searches!

Time filter is a great idea. In an earlier iteration, I tried ingesting creation time in the crawler. Unfortunately, not all sites would have a timestamp included and they way they incorporate it was a mess (metadata vs url vs a random <span>), so it didn't make the release. But this is definitely something to revisit soon.

Thanks for contributing (or trying to)!

I goofed, but it's fixed now! I use the endpoint where the public suggest page is hosted for private admin access as well. Those admin pages are authed with Clerk, but I was never using the production Clerk instance in production. Whoops.

Thanks for sharing the article and the feedback!

Community curation is a good concept. I'm a little hesitant because community contributions can degrade a platform (e.g. people writing marketing content on Wikipedia). But the biggest hurdle had been building a reasonable content index, so despite that risk, the reward will seem to be worth it.

Re ranking: what you're saying makes a lot of sense in the context of topic discovery. But is less useful for q/a or reference style searches. Although it will still probably be good enough.
