Hi all (CEO & Founder, DuckDuckGo here). Looks like something may have broken in a release that went out today – >it is triggering a JS error. We’re looking into it now and should have it resolved soon. UPDATE: this should be fixed now.
Already fixed.
Good find. Relevant bit:

They’re not sanitizing their inputs properly. Little Bobby Tables strikes again!
I’d love to know the “why” behind this bug. Assuming it’s not actually a feature!
According to commenters on HN it was a faulty regex.
Most results are for notepad++ for me, but i still get notepad results lower on the first page.

Might as well just go straight to Bing
Wondering if someone could create a less tricky alternative to regex.
Cloudflare’s infamous outage was also one regex character off.
Regexng could result a longer string, but more human readable than plain old regex.
Basically regexng could be regex with more syntactic sugar.
That’s super useful.
Edit: it was a blank results page when I posted this comment

That’s weird. So does notepad++
Definitely a you problem
That’s just not true mate.
Just did it. literally the first result was for notepad ++
