Any chance you could add a database description, e.g., the date range of coverage?

"This database covers all HN content from YYYY-DD-MM to YYYY-DD-MM." Something like that. A user might wonder: What is the earliest content? How frequently does it update? Etc.

If this is already documented somewhere my apologies for not being able to find it.

Earliest search I've been able to perform:

    hn -d 02-19-07

It would be nice if there is a ncurse interface for HN.

HNSearch seems broken right now. Nothing recent that I'm searching for is coming up:

http://www.hnsearch.com/search#request/all&q=bradbury...

http://www.hnsearch.com/search#request/all&q=patent&...

Yeah, it's been like that for about a week now. Things from about 7 days ago are the most recently indexed.

Sorry, we just upgraded our infrastructure and the crawler is out-of-date. Things should be back to normal soon.
