You seem extremely active on HN, so this story sounds pretty exaggerated.
- Out of the box, search result quality is comparable to Google
- Search is slow. Latency for most queries is about a second. Sometimes 3 seconds. Google is shockingly fast in comparison.
- Personalized results is a killer feature (blocking, boosting and suppressing domains)
- There is no iOS app. Only one in beta that is seemingly abandoned.
- Their site/app design is just passable at best
- Their AI quick answers give solid answers and are pretty concise
As someone who runs into this problem a lot, this is pretty cool! Does anyone know how they can recover from this in SQLite?
Also, your example is not showing the current time.
If something is overwhelmingly long, especially considering the subject matter, I just skip to the comments or throw it in an LLM to summarize.
- No mobile apps
- 10 min/day time limit on web
- Only browse 6 subreddits individually
- Filtering all posts below a certain karma level (depending on the subreddit)
- Collapsing all comments by default
This has completely changed my relationship with the platform for the better. I would quit it entirely, but unfortunately it's the best news source for a few of my hobbies.
I get that exhausted feeling after any hard day at work. On the other hand, scrolling through reels for about 30 minutes gives me a headache. If I spend over an hour on YouTube, I also get a similar feeling, but only if that time was spent watching many different videos. If I watched one 2 hour video, I feel fine.
Even assuming print statements and debuggers are equally effective (they're not), debuggers are better simply because they are faster. With print statements, you might need to recompile a dozen times before you find whatever it is you're looking for. Even with quick builds this is infuriating and a ton of wasted time.
