I’m a Toronto-based software developer specializing in Ruby on Rails / Crystal with game development experience, passionate about AI and open source. Join me as I share insights, best practices, and explore the intersections of technology, gaming, and AI.
I detail how I created a search engine. In the end I recommend self-hosting spyglass for finding information online.
Recommending Spyglass over, say, SearxNG? Seems a bit over-reliant on Google services for my taste, but sure.
Searxng has it’s own issues like scaling and getting good results. It can still be a good option.
