Right, the way I see it, searx model is flawed. I want to host my personal instance. But doing so doesn't make any sense since if I'm alone using it. So I'm better off using Google directly, unless someone can search whatever

If you set up your own instance and are the only one to use it, what's the point of using searx and not grogle directly?

by dnpp123 6y ago
I tried to use searx for a while, but gave up due to the lack of decent instance. Ended up using startpage.com - it might be a tad worst for privacy but a lot better for usability IMHO. If anyone is aware of a better alternative, I'd l

I'm definitely opposed to 'electronic' voting, but the problem you are describing is easily solvable with asymmetric cryptography. You'd have your private key on your 'voting card' (unsure how you call it in th

I think that system is pretty similar everywhere, probably only in the US you have some weird mechanical machine to cast your vote.

For having spent some time playing with ripgrep and hyperscan ( https://sr.ht/~pierrenn/ripgrep/ ) the benchmarking part looks really odd to me. The T5/T6/T7/T8/T9 are no way extensive enough to

TIL. I really thought it was only a French thing. Thanks.

That's exactly what they did and where they got most of their customers from. Those 'free viewing' ( canal+ en clair ) probably had one of the biggest impact on french comedy TV culture ever. Some shows of that era are still

Yeah, if anything, C++ is getting less serious about safety by piling features over features. Just write Rust instead.

Let's hope they use that money to make synapse more lightweight... Synapse plus a few bridge just eats all my server's resources. Go wonder why they chose to do it in python...

ReasonML looks cool, first time I hear about it. Thanks. Elm/Purescript syntaxes are not my kink. Open to other suggestions though.

I like typescript as it fixes a lot of JS quirks - that's good when you have to write code transpiled to JS. However coming from languages where types are a first element of the language (c++, rust, go...), I often miss a lot of featur

> just a wrapper for the unix toolset Yeah, that's the point of using Unix, and why pass is great for that.

by dnpp123 7y ago
Yeah I don't see the advantages of this compared to `pass` as well. The whole source code of bash pass [1] is almost as long as a single header file [2] from this C++ software. Plus pass already handles backup... Minimalist heh. [1] h

Yes. However since you can precompile the DB (with the provided flag), this works fine when you have a lot of regexps which don't change and new packs of data to parse.. which was (basically) the original use case of hyperscan. For a s

(i'm the author of the fork) Yes the use case here is quite peculiar. Ripgrep default search engine is already amazingly fast, plus the fact that hyperscan DB can only be compiled using a single core and take some time doesn't hel

This looks cool. Something I really never get with async is the executor: - if I use this do I have do use tokio or async-std ? none ? is the code assuming an executor ? - e.g can I use this library with, let's say, hyper ? tide ?

Those are worst IMHO - when you look at the tricks used by top performers to look good, it does not reflect real life situation at all.

You could say pretty much the same for TCP (or even maybe lower down the network stack)
