I always mispell it stenography by accident, just commenting so I can find this awesome post in search later when I inevitably type it wrong!

I have found this as well, FTSE5 is convenient to have as an option, but it's not as versatile as postgres or sonic or other full-text search solutions.

Does anyone have any other favorite modern bloom-filter-based search solutions that dont need to store copies of all the documents in the search db? Ideally something that can run in WASM too so we can ship a tiny search index to the browser. I found https://github.com/tinysearch/tinysearch but haven't tried it yet.

Surprised no one has mentioned Turso yet!

They recently landed multi-writer support for their rust SQLite re-implementation, which is personally the biggest issue I've had with using SQLite for high concurrency applications.

`PRAGMA journal_mode = 'mvcc';`

https://docs.turso.tech/tursodb/concurrent-writes

Very excited to see if SQLite responds by adding native support, I'm hoping competition here will spur improvements on both sides.

Incredible that a database company writes that page and doesn't document the isolation level of the feature.

I believe the full docs are here: https://github.com/tursodatabase/turso/blob/main/docs/manual...

I built this recently to toy around with mac sensor data + hardware outputs. Because it can represent all streams as mono audio, it lets you do crazy things like this:

    accelerometer | metronome | tee >(keyboard-brightness) | speaker

I know this is not the right place for this but if there's any chance you could send this link to someone internal at Github who knows how to fix this, that would be awesome! https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/70577

It's only semi-related in that it's a similar string thats appearing in millions of repos due to a Github feature change, but it's now polluting Google search results with tons of duplicate URLs unnecessarily. Issue has 100+ votes but has been entirely ignored by Github team.

Yeah exactly like this. I like being able to approve/deny requests or "learn" from a good run and apply that policy to later runs so I can leave them unattended and know they can't access anything aside from what I approved.

Ripgrep is used as the defautl search backend for ArchiveBox, such a good tool. I was on ag (the-silver-searcher) for years before I switched, but haven't gone back since.

There's also RGA (ripgrep-all) which searches binary files like PDFs, ebooks, doc files: https://github.com/phiresky/ripgrep-all

Doesn't HN prevent that? I thought edits lock upon the first reply.

Unfortunately, no. See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27395320.

Weird, I dont have any edit option on my comment after you replied.

Maybe it's a karma-gated feature?

I don't think that it is karma-gated, but you can only edit the comment for two hours after it's posted. Then it's frozen.

Ah that makes sense.

The best part is that *.*.localhost is also supported, so you can finally just replace *.com for your prod domains with *.localhost.

ArchiveBox now uses this feature by default in the latest version to finally offer unique per-snapshot domain isolation, so we can safely replay archived JS without risking compromise of your whole archive.

Such an awesome feature, the barrier to do this used to be prohibitively high but now it "just works".

Does anyone know of watchdog agencies that do the research to document and litigate harmful algorithmic trends?.

I know https://www.reset.tech/ does really good work in this space, but are there others, and who is funding them?
