But you have to know what book you are looking for.

The previews are still there though, they just don't rank.

This is actually pretty good.

But why would people train on excerpts from Google Books when whole books can be downloaded on libgen and such?

The books are still there, it seems like the rankings have changed though.

by adamnemecek 9mo ago
The corpus is still the same, like searching the name of the book will find it, but the full text search.

by adamnemecek 9mo ago
Huh, the search is not amazing but it will have to do. Thanks! Are there others?

by adamnemecek 9mo ago
My problem is finding references I don't know about.

by adamnemecek 9mo ago
None of these does full text search.

The change happened on or around Jan 21. Overnight the results went from pretty good to absolute trash. Here are two screenshots taken on Jan 20 and Jan 23 https://bsky.app/profile/adamnemecek.bsky.social/post&#x2

OS is to blame. There should be a way for the OS to tell to the app "offload your state" like phones do. Paging is supposed to achieve this but does not.

But those are retina pixels right? Like what is the max resolution of that display?

How?

Integration with typst will be more straightforward than latex.

by adamnemecek 9mo ago
Consider adding support for Typst.

Pandoc is cool but I hate writing my own scripts for it.

You don’t have to use those parts, you can use it as markdown.
