The irony of this shit ass site loading at a glacial pace lol

How about when you're not on an Apple product?

Burying the lede here - your solution for avoiding using vector search is either offloading to 1) user, expecting them to remember the right terms or 2) using LLM to craft the search query? And having it iterate multiple times? Holy mother of inefficiency, this agentic focus is making us all brain dead.

Vector DB's and embeddings are dead simple to figure out, implement, and maintain. Especially for a local RAG, which is the primary context here. If I want to find my latest tabular notes on some obscure game dealing with medical concepts, I should be able to just literally type that. It shouldn't require me remembering the medical terms, or having some local (or god forbid, remote) LLM iterate through a dozen combos.

FWIW I also think this is a matter of how well one structures their personal KB. If you follow strict metadata/structure and have coherent/logical writing, you'll have better chance of getting results with text matching. For someone optimizing for vector space search, and minimizing the need for upfront logical structuring, it will not work out well.

So much winning!

Humanity just doesn't ever learn. Europe will end up having draconian oversight and censorship that will be abused beyond belief by fascists. When some central entity--subject to the whims of political temperature--controls what you can access, there can be no trust in the durability and integrity of information. Same as in the US really, except there being executed to support the nascent regime without any liberal auspices.

Allow/deny list, hope that helps.

The insanity of trying to shoehorn everything into emacs, even calling it an OS, is purely beyond.

Yeah, this cacophony of clacks is being recreated at my office by every other eng using a diabolical mechanical keyboard with no respect for the ears of their neighbors.

You'd get the spirit roasted out of you at any FAANG (at least, back when people gave a shit) if you ever sent out a change review with such a dumbass comment.

Oh the tasty irony.
