Quickwit is a distributed search engine built from the ground up to offer cost-efficiency and high reliability. By mere mortals for mere mortals, Quickwit's architecture is as simple as possible 1.

Quickwit is written in Rust and built on top of the mighty tantivy library. We designed it to index big datasets.

Why Quickwit?

Quickwit is born from the idea that today's search engines are hard to manage and uneconomical when dealing with large datasets and a low QPS2 rate. Its benefits are most apparent in a multitenancy or a multi-index setting.

Quickwit allows true decoupled compute and storage. We designed it to search straight from object storage like AWS S3 in a stateless manner.

Imagine hosting an arbitrary amount of indices on S3 for $25/TB.month and querying them with the same pool of search servers and with a subsecond latency.

Not only is Quickwit more cost-efficient, but search clusters are also easier to operate. One can add or remove search instances in seconds. You can also effortlessly index a massive amount of historical data using your favorite batch technology. Last but not least, Multi-tenant search is now cheap and painless.

/etc/portage/env and /etc/portage/package.env are used for modifying Portage's environmental variables, such as those specified in the /etc/portage/make.conf file, on a per-package basis.

The /etc/portage/env directory contains files that have the same syntax as make.conf. The filename will be used as the key to override settings.
The /etc/portage/package.env file describes which of these files will be used on a per-package basis.

/etc/portage/sets is an optional directory that is used to create user defined package sets. For each file in /etc/portage/sets, a package set is created, defining a one-to-many relationship between a set name and an arbitrary group of package atoms. User-defined set names correspond to the name of the file. Each file should contain a list of package atoms and nested package sets, one per line.

"Speaking with Liberation about their demands, a union leader named Diesel explained they want “Housing, bathrooms, showers, but most of all every man, every woman, and every child deserves a home.”"

"The crisis of homelessness is not without solutions. The City has more than enough money and resources to house every single person who needs it, but a political leadership serving the interests of real estate developers and housing corporations is unwilling to act. According to those leading the occupation, it would only take $3 million to house the approximately 3,200 homeless people in the city."

you could use gemget to schedule a download of mirrors on gemini to create a local mirror of the mirror and view content locally with low latency and offline.

sometimes likes make people feel seen or recognized.

Protective Measures Gemlikes has some protections in place to prevent abuse or impersonation of the comment and liking system. Note that a server admin can make comments and likes say anything they want though.

• An ID is generated based on the commenter's IP address to prevent impersonation by other commenters It's displayed right beside their username, as can be seen above
• Usernames cannot be reused on a single page by different IP addresses
• An IP address cannot make more than 5 comments on a page by default, although this is configurable in the gemlikes.toml file
• The same IP address cannot like a file more than one time
• Only files in the directories specified in gemlikes.toml can be like and commented on - Trying to reference files that don't exist will give an error
