Marginalia: 3 Years
> I think a larger concern is how you'll address the Bus Factor going forward
I can't speak to how much energy it is to go from code to serving requests, but FWIW the code is AGPLv3 and seems to be updated regularly https://github.com/MarginaliaSearch/MarginaliaSearch/blob/v2...

The Internet Is Full of AI Dogshit
Regarding the last sentence: The problem is that capitalism knows no limits. Sure, it would be nice to pay a monthly subscription for genuinely good and desirable content/search results...
But what if the CEO of the service provider needs another $5m bonus? What if the stock needs to go up so that the shareholder gamblers can get more dividend paid? What if all of a sudden the service gets bought out?
The truth is that what you are seeking is more likely to come from someone who is just passionate about it with not that much motivation based on profit. That doesn't mean that this entity or person can't be financially supported but it gets problematic when profit is the _main_ incentive.

The Web Is Fantastic
There's a decent amount of people still keeping the fire burning for the "old web." It takes a little digging, but it's out there.
Some links for you:
* https://wiby.me/ — search engine that emphasizes simple/plain/hobbyist pages. Try the "surprise me" link a few times.
* https://neustadt.fr/essays/the-small-web/ — article, "Rediscovering the Small Web"
* https://search.marginalia.nu/ — author (hangs out on HN sometimes, too (marginalia_nu)
Actually, here's a link to a similar discussion on an old HN thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30783391

Ask HN: What's your "it's not stupid if it works" story?
I built a recipe detector. You can, you know, train some sort of AI model to do this like with fasttext, or maybe do naive bayesian inference, but as it turns out, you can also:

It works annoyingly well.
- Marginalia is a great search engine that returns results from lesser-known blogs and websites

A new approach to domain ranking
Result ranking takes a lot of variables, and factors like excessive tracking and affiliate links is one of them in my search engine.

"We pulled off an SEO heist with AI and stole 3.6M impressions."
#1 cause in the decline of Google maybe. https://search.marginalia.nu/ seems to manage though, so maybe Google just doesn't care.

Show HN: I am curating the best websites on the internet
Congratulations on shipping.
I see a lot of focus on startups, AI tools, productivity hacks, tech stacks, etc. What audience do you have in mind? I personally find that the most interesting sites on HN are outside of your scope here (examples: https://ciechanow.ski/, https://neal.fun/, https://search.marginalia.nu/).

Ok, but please don't post unsubstantive comments to Hacker News.
I understand the reason for repeating these sentiments—it's the same reason why they get upvoted to the top of threads*—but repetition of this kind is what we're most trying to avoid here.

Show HN: Hacker Search – A semantic search engine for Hacker News
yeah there are only three stories coming up from the site search
https://hn.algolia.com/?q=postgres+clustering
only one is semanthically correct, the other pick up the wrong version of clustering (i.e. k-means instead of multi master writes)
but yeah if one doesn't test the hard cases, how does one know it preserves semantics :D

Nearsightedness is at epidemic levels – and the problem begins in childhood
Vision therapy for myopia helps some people, but not everyone, likely due to genetic and neuroplasticity differences, https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu.... Nevertheless, many of the principles are useful for children whose eyes and brains are still developing.
