Oh it checked multiple boxes I have in mind, and the website UI is really great. I'll definitely give it a try.

I was talking about a self-hosted search engine.

Given that:

- Google has been around for 20+ years, so the concept of search engine and the technologies behind it should have been well known.

- Computing power and Internet speed has increased significantly and in many homes (at least outside of US) 1Gbps is norm.

- Everyone is talking about Google deteriorating over the years and prefer the old Google. The old system from the 2000s should be dirt cheap to run with modern home hardware.

- People's need for search engine is highly specific, you presumably would be interested in searching a small subset of the whole Internet.

My question is: why haven't a local run search engine be a thing at least in the tech circles?

It should be able to bootstrap with e.g. an hourly updated "top 100 websites in 50 categories" index file, and adapt to my daily queries to automatically update the index in the background, and iteratively improves the quality of the results.

The rise of the local LLM users proves this model works.

Uh, no? It was not built in secret before the AI hype.

In fact as late as Jan 2026 Google was proudly presenting their new data centers in Bangkok: https://www.googlecloudpresscorner.com/2026-01-21-Google-Clo...

In your example, why didn't a 6000% ROI not attract enough investors and introduce competitions, eventually lower the ROI?

I have the feeling that Git winning the war hinges heavily on GitHub being the way to do open source projects, and that is changing given the sad state of GitHub.

Another contender is Jujutsu (jj) which allows you to use jj as frontend and use Git as the backend (with the potential to support any backend, e.g. Google's proprietary Piper), with the best ergonomic and the widest availability of hosting solutions.

Vendorizing using git submodule should be a robust mitigation for this problem.

`go:generate` is for the package provider, the command never runs when someone `go install` or `go get` the package.

To me the most amazing thing of using Chromebook is that you can run the Tailscale _Android_ app and get your ChromeOS connected to your tailnet.

Overseerr is a write-only access to your Radarr/Sonarr library, so e.g. the user cannot accidentally delete a movie or choose to download a lower quality version.

AFAKIT the built-in backup of a managed database will be gone if the database is deleted. This is true in AWS and GCP.

I still don't know why the product manager would decide this is a good UX.

It looks like more and more websites star using html-load.com to circumvent DNS ad blocking like PiHole and Adguard Home, like this one.
