Looks great! I wonder is it API based or utilising a local LLM?

#12Just my two cents: If you're saving enough documents to where you need something like this, you're spending too much time bookmarking and not enough time actually making use of the knowledge contained in there. I'm sure it's an improvement for those people though. Would be even better if AI systems were integrated with hypergraphs of the sort, which was an approach some AGI projects were taking 1-2 decades ago.
I did develop this when I was PhD student in NLP. I think it's fine to learn to develop a personal search system if you want to learn.

#13How do you make it useful though?
It upload content some of my friends like (github stars) and they have very good taste, so when I'm looking for a document / information on a new topic in machine learning or databases I like to give it a chance

For me bookmarking does not mean that I want to read the article, it usually mean that I think it may be useful for certain task in the future want it to be in my search result some times. Since sometimes I want to read in depth about something that I read briefly long ago, it is really hard for me to find it back.
It's like a personal/curated library. I don't see what's wrong with that. Whenever I start thinking about some article or other I vaguely remember and want to re-read it, but can't find it again without substantial effort, I wish I'd been more fastidious about saving and archiving that article.
You see it best in how Luhmann used the Zettelkasten system, where ideas and resources are linked to topics that he wanted to think and write about.

#15Ridiculous how easy Asturiano makes it to say "3d? Ah go on then, why not."
Amazed by 3d-force-graph js library

#16Author here, I like the idea to have a public and personal search-engine. I'd love to deep dive in some people bookmarks such as expert in NLP field in order to get clue / a point of view on problem I want to solve but those informations are not available most of the time

You might get lucky and find a NLP expert's bookmarks on https://pinboard.in.

I've found web bookmarks don't even need to be sorted into folders. You can always search the bookmarks if you remember a fragment of the title, else just scroll back through them manually until you find it.

Knowledge Management sometimes is just elaborated procrastinating
Perhaps all of life is just elaborated procrastination. We stumble onto the stage, busy ourselves with something and then we’re gone for eternity.
But building something and sharing it with others: if it is procrastination it’s quite productive procrastination.
I still recall when a young dude thought the knowledge management at CERN could do with a bit of elaborated procrastinating… and we got a WWW out of it.

> you're spending too much time bookmarking and not enough time actually making use of the knowledge
Exactly!
Just like if you are always writing in a journal like DaVinci, Curie, Darwin, or Edison, you're spending too much time reliving the past instead of inventing the future.
