HN Search isn't ingesting new data since Friday

dang

Sorry all. We've let the Algolia team know and they're working on it.

This has happened before and it will happen again. Outages happen.

Can you share with us what the best point of contact or escalation path to reach out to the next time it happens on the Algolia side?

Someone else posted this as well, but ... you wouldn't be able to find it.

There are dozens, dozens of us that use hn.aloglia, much better interface than the front page.

I use it as a front page, because it shows flagged posts and ranks them by total number of votes, not by arcane algorithms.

I became aware of it last night when a few users emailed me of chronological data in my app being outdated since Friday. Then went to GitHub and saw an issue was already open and upvoted by 8 others.

I just happened to be checking the website "manually" because hnrss.org stopped updating, this explains why lol. Glad to know it'll hopefully be resolved soon.

Ah man then how do I know if I beat the other person for the latest simonw or rachelbythebay submission?

The "from site" feature is native to HN.

You're probably kidding, but it's a cool feature and maybe someone doesn't know about it yet.

When you click the url next to a submission, it shows all the submissions from that website.

Hope this gets fixed soon. I've had to write a fallback for my extension to use the HN firebase but it's a lot less efficient for the data I need.

Ok. I thought it was some change in the algorithm.

The change is that the algorithm is off vacationing in Bali.
