					Who wants to build with me the European search engine?
 
 - Rust or Go for high-performance crawling
 - LLM (Mistral / Mixtral / Zephyr) for reasoning and answering
 - Vector DB (Qdrant / Weaviate) for semantic memory
 - Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) instead of classic indexing
 - Postgres / SQLite / S3 for smart buffer storage
 - LLM-powered garbage filter (kill SEO sludge)
 - Nightly retraining & hot-swappable models
 - Minimalist frontend (SvelteKit or Next.js)
 - No chatbot behavior. No endless replies. Just answers.6

 Just had a very productive night with @hahaha1234 and @jappe. Revisited a lot of code, made it simpler, faster, storage efficient and future proof. Our smart search engine is getting somewhere now. Tomorow we will be continue building ofcourse, but first: time to sleep! It is 3:45AM and after that, go running on the beach in Zandvoort.1

					Inspired by my professor’s rant about people don’t know how to google stuffs, I made a scriptable script to solve all those issues. It’s a super smart script that shows detailed step by step solution of how to tackle down a problem
 
 For those who doesn’t know, scriptable is a free app for Apple basically writing scripts that can be used, in JavaScript.
 
 Here is the repo:
 https://github.com/txstc55/...
 
 Please try it out, you will love it, I promise

					There is so much fuzz about AI and fear of missing out on the leaving AI train, but as a dev I have no clue about where at all to get started!?
 
 What can we developers do with AI?
 
 OK, I can get some code for free. I can use a LLM as a half smart search engine. I can integrate my product with some AI service. I can produce content to teach said things to others...
 
 Nothing new, really, just another API or another search engine.
 
 It is of course possible to start to make some neural networks, but I can't really picture that as a high demand skill, do you?
 Maybe at some of the big companies, but for an average client?
 
 Does anyone know what kind of knowledge of AI that a developer should really learn?
 Especially something a client would be interested in?
 
 Here is a potato for scale: 5 5
