Give me 500 years of life with good health and I will be more than satisfied.

Summum bonum, for those who want more.

To be honest, I started this because Postman and Insomnia became forced-corporate-cloud not usable for me anymore, and Bruno lacked a feature I considered fundamental for my workflow.

The feature is to remember the JSONPath expressions between requests, a feature that Bruno has implemented already.

But I created this thing and I'm using it daily since then. C++ and wxWidgets, it uses 40MB of RAM, and it is super fast, instead of the 400MB used by the above mentioned programs.

Detect it using an algorithm and automatically ban your business account?

Do people not see how insane that policy is?

The world is changing too fast for our laws to adapt. Not to mention for us to adapt.

Not everything needs to be dominant to be successful. That's a pure USian way of thinking.

In fact, we are much better of with it existing. Think of it as a safeguard in case Linux gets overwhelmed or we need to migrate in a rush.

Then we can compare with actual data.

It is basically that, also similar to Bruno but using 20 times less RAM.

We could do much better with access to online libraries (which don't exist, apart from the very limited sample from these books accessible using Wikipedia).

Current (blogs and articles and forums) online resources provide information at a rate book search just can't provide.

There are many, but all short of the potential for knowledge and learning:

Internet Archive Lending Library, Hathi Trust, Libby / Overdrive, U. of Pennsylvania's Online Books Page:

There are also the shadow libraries, of course.

I optimize for finding the answer to a given question, without knowing beforehand if it will be found online or in an research article or in a book.

And I mean finding the right answer, before you mention "learning" like it is something that can't be done using computers.

Trillions and trillions of dollars of technology later, and the best we can do now is fly by and wave.

That's how I read it nowadays, as Google search results are in a quality going down trend.

Actual search results are still bad. Seems to be a trend across most engines

the direction they want to go is clear for me, similar to proton

These are still a thing for people who don't like JavaScript, so I'd give them some credit.

And it's not like these don't cost anything to run and maintain. Quite the contrary: bots love to use them, and it screws with their ads-driven business model. And yet they are still keeping these around.

I think that "noai", too, will keep going for a long time.

very google-y to me, or valley-y is probably more accurate, par for the course across so many products these days (in your face)

DDG pulls stunts too

I'm moving to API based search options, using multiple, and rendering them as markdown for myself or my agent

I noticed the same with Qwant. They even try to copy the useless UI for Google. And on top of that I get a 2 seconds delay "verifying device".

It seems nobody knows how to create a proper search engine anymore. Google search is also useless compared to "the good old days".

I'm using API search like EXA, the incentives feel more aligned
