Show HN: I converted my notebook into a searchable database of IT keywords
- kagevf 2y agoMaybe consider adding a highlight to the search term in the (filtered) text.
- jurajstefanic 2y agoGreat idea! Adding it now.
- hereaiham 2y agoneat
- perdomon 2y agoLove the neo-brutalism look. What do you think about crowd-sourcing the glossary or creating a submission form for new terms?
- jurajstefanic 2y agoThanks! Added a submission form for the new words and definitions (also in the neo-brutalism style). As for crowd-sourcing the glossary, that is also planned. I just need to structure the existing entries first, and it's good to go! It will be published as part of the GitHub repository.
- tro2102 2y agoCool! nit: you've got a casing mismatch between Devops and DevOps
- jurajstefanic 2y agoNice catch. Fixed!
- card_zero 2y ago* Successfully looked up RLHF (reinforcement learning from human feedback) * Failed when looking up NIH (not invented here) Hmm. Would you mind devoting the rest of your life to making this dictionary comprehensive, and keeping it updated? Slightly smaller request: could you make it possible to select and copy the definitions?
- wizzwizz4 2y ago:root body { user-select: auto; } Slap this in a userstyle, and it'll override lines 545–546 of the stylesheet, restoring the expected behaviour.
- jurajstefanic 2y agoI’ll do my best to keep it updated regularly! I’ve added the copy functionality now to each definition entry - no need for that extra step of selecting!
- GauntletWizard 1y agoYou may want to wholesale import The Jargon File. Badly out of date at this point, but surprisingly relevant and of more than moderate value as a historical reference.
- card_zero 2y agoWell, I didn't want to copy the whole thing, I wanted to select and copy it myself, as is standard and expected. I don't want a handy search button that sends me to google, either, since I don't use google. If you keep on helping me to do things I didn't want to, I'll have a user experience.
- jurajstefanic 2y agoThanks for the feedback, this makes a lot of sense. I modified it accordingly.

- atmanactive 2y agoThis is great. Thanks for this. The only thing I'm missing is the automatic dark mode (respecting operating system's dark/light theme). If you want I could add that in a pull request.
- jurajstefanic 2y agoThanks! Great suggestion. Feel free to open a pull request and add it.
- atmanactive 1y agoI did. Seven days ago. No response from you.
- LoganDark 2y agoDoesn't seem to have "RTFM" (Read The Fucking/Friendly Manual)
- redeux 2y agoThat was the first thing I searched for too
- jurajstefanic 2y agoRefresh and it's there!
- staplung 2y agoGreat work. Love the austere style. Nit: don't think you need to prefix "database" with "searchable". If it's a DB, searchability is implied.
- call 2y ago"o'reilly"
- mindwork 1y agoI couldn't find anything that I put there: DRY, RBAC, Duck(-typing), Liskov, b-tree
- jurajstefanic 1y agoAdded! If you happen to think of any more, you can use the contribution form to submit them.
- Jotalea 1y agoThe first three words that got into my mind (kernel, Linux, operating system) were not here. I guess this is for another sector of IT?
- smusamashah 1y agoAre those definitions LLM generated?
- Izuchukwu-Eric 1y agoGreat work! I will be needing this
