I use Chrome for Google's sites (Gmail, Youtube, etc) and Firefox for everything else. On Chrome you can install Youtube as an "app". That makes it easy for me to keep YT up and running while using Firefox for general browsing. Definitely recommend trying this approach out!

Thanks for the roadmap, I should have just looked around the site a bit more, I would have found it.

And, I may take you up on a chat after I've had a conversation with my team! At the very least, I've joined the Discord and I'll definitely be following you guys closely.

Yes, saw your other comment! ;) I will definitely be checking this out as well. I am so glad folks are finally creating real solutions in this space.

Wow, this is exactly what I've been searching for! I knew this was possible but am too busy trying to build web apps to spend time learning how to do stuff like this.

I notice this is still a 0.X version. How comfortable are you with people using this in production? Are there any success stories so far? And if it's not production ready, is there a roadmap I can check out?

The company I work for is in the process of planning a complete rework of our app and right now is the time for us to choose technologies. I so very much want to use this or something like this.

> In fact, the males only sire the daughters because sons arise from unfertilized eggs.

Okay that's a crazy fact. These male spiders are pretty much just their mother from a genetic perspective!

My mother is an employment attorney. When a company gets sued over an employee matter those kinds of messages are surfaced in pretty much every case because people tend to send those kind of things over company owned tools. Kind of hilarious the things people say thinking their boss will never see it.

Wow thanks putting a number on it. I knew it was high but holy cow is that a lot of money for as you say, nothing more.

I’m no expert here, so someone by all means correct me, but my understanding is that the fed rate correlates to the rate of interest the government has to pay on its debts. The higher the rate, the larger the chance that the government defaults which for the US would be catastrophic.

I’m reminded of this line in Bruce Almighty: “All this horsepower and no room to gallup”

Is there really a market for a $999 Chromebook? Didn’t google try this several years ago and flop?

> Also DuckDuckGo sources from far more than just Bing and it does have its own crawler as well.

Do you have a source for this? I'd be interested in reading the technicals of merging search results from multiple sources.

Is there any plan to add AMD CPUs to the Framework laptop?

The 12th gen Intel chips are a huge improvement over previous generations, but my understanding is that AMD chips are of similar performance with better power usage and thermals.

Edit: This may not be true anymore, anyone is free to correct me on this.

I think I slightly misunderstood the point of this site, people probably do want fast updates. But I still think the price should be brought down. You could probably save costs by pooling the crawling, eg. if multiple subscribers request the same page, do that crawl once for all of them. You may already be doing that.
