Maybe this solves your problems? It creates a database in your browser's LocalStorage. https://noteself.github.io/

#53There are lots of tools that do the individual moving parts, but a personal aggregator of everything would be interesting. Basically, a tool that lets you become your own personal data broker—just for your own personal data.
Re: Building personal search infrastructure for your knowledge and code
#54I wrote and use daily http://onemodel.org (AGPL, uses postgres), for many reasons listed there :) . One way to think of its current state is a text-mode, easy-to-learn (i hope) infinite mind map of things, where I store and can query effectively everything: calendar, reminders, quasi-anki-like knowledge review, journal, automatic activity log, notes on subjects, very efficiently for the user. (It also stores document…
Looks interesting but honestly I had trouble keeping my attention focused enough to read through the intro page. A little CSS (max-width: 700px; margin: 0 auto;) on the body would go very far.

#55E.g. one software I started to use is nvALT, via: https://www.macstories.net/links/organizing-everything-with-...
But I'm nowhere near a perfect and complete solution yet...

#56Sourcegraph CEO here. I see the doc mentions Sourcegraph for code search (cool!). Something like ripgrep is indeed better for your case, a single person who just needs to search code in local directories on their own machine. I made a PR for our docs at https://github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph/pull/8075 that should clarify this. Sourcegraph is a web-based code search tool that automatically syncs and indexes many r…
Thank you for updating the documentation to clarify the use case though!

#57I'd really like a personal "correlate all the things!" setup that has a plugin architecture for any source and creates a time series and document-based store of whatever I want. Tweets, e-mails, text messages, time tracking, etc. There are lots of tools that do the individual moving parts, but a personal aggregator of everything would be interesting.

I wrote a post on some data that I collect and have/will integrate: https://beepb00p.xyz/my-data.html#consumers

Re: Building personal search infrastructure for your knowledge and code
#59My problem with a lot of services listed below, is they all eventually go away, and all your data is off somewhere else. Unless you store your data locally in a human readable format (markdown) you are just putting all your data into a system that WILL go away at some point in the future. Google has already had 2-3 services to manage your data that they have closed down. Maybe they are the ones that taught me not to…
http://onemodel.org , described briefly elsewhere in this discussion page and more at that site, is self-hosted, which today means installing postgres and editing one config file, doing backups & upgrades (but I might be able to help some). Maybe I could host for others sometime if there were sufficient interest. And/or move it to sqlite.
Is it possible there is a solution that makes the data more permanent and allows multiple parties to backup the same sources, or something similar? Some sort of federation protocol maybe.

Yeah, seems neither self-host (onemodel) or letting someone else (you or Evernote) is particularly attractive, because the chance of data loss is always there.
