Was this supposed to link to the tag algorithms or to a particular question?
It was link to the 'algorithm' tag.
There is also the NIST's Dictionary of Algorithms & Data Structures, which is formatted a little nicer. These are mostly 'textbook' algorithms though, probably not as specific as most of whats on StackOverflow

I really don't understand what is the point of such entries. Everybody knows stack overflow. Putting a link to a tag on SO is not really something worth sharing.
Well, it's a weekend. Sharing this might lead some HNers spend some time going through the list of algorithms (which I thought is good; a refresher may be)which might be spent elsewhere. That's the intent.
