• I want Google maps to work for Cyprus buses, who do I contact?

  As an option you can use Here WeGo - https://wego.here.com (mobile app is also available), they have bus routes with schedules and even show when it's delayed (if the bus is equipped with such system, at least in Limassol older buses do not have it). Source: about 3 years ago

• wego.here.com can't be autofilled

  To repro: - https://wego.here.com, - click on left hand side menu, - use login item from the top of the menu. Source: over 3 years ago

• Where can I buy paper road maps in Dublin?

  Also, have a look at https://wego.here.com I use it all the time. Source: over 3 years ago

• Navigation!

  Agreed, but you are going to get feedback from a lot of folks who apparently really like it. The native navigation comes from a system called HERE and they have deals with a large number of vehicle OEMs. For my situation the native maps are abysmal. The POI database is sparsely populated for my area of the country and it rarely identifies the correct destination unless I enter the specific street address. Worse,... Source: over 3 years ago

• Navigation - alternative to Google Maps ?

  I'm using European-based maps. Not ideal but better. Here we go (wego.here.com) is really great. viamichelin.fr is also quite good (but not as good). Source: over 3 years ago

• HorizonDB, a geocoding engine in Rust that replaces Elasticsearch

  Nice... it's cool to see how different companies are putting together best fit solutions. I'm also glad that they at least started out with off the shelf apps instead of jumping to something like a bespoke solution early on. Quickwit[1] looks interesting, found via Tantivity reference. Kind of like ES w/ Lucene. 1. https://github.com/quickwit-oss/quickwit. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Tantivy – full-text search engine library inspired by Apache Lucene

  Https://github.com/quickwit-oss/quickwit to_tsvector in PG never worked well for my use cases SELECT * FROM dump WHERE to_tsvector('english'::regconfig, hh_fullname) @@ to_tsquery('english'::regconfig, 'query'); Wish them to succeed. Will automatically upvote any post Tantivy as keyword. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• S3 Express Is All You Need

  We tested S3 Express for our search engine quickwit[0] a couple of weeks ago. While this was really satisfying on the performance side, we were a bit disappointed by the price, and I mostly agree with the article on this matter. I can see some very specific use cases where the pricing should be OK but currently, I would say most of our users should just stay on the classic S3 and add some local SSD caching if they... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• Show HN: Quickwit – Cost-efficient Elasticsearch alternative on object storage

  - Another nice comment seen on HN « it seems to be very easy to run, not very IO intensive, and running fine on a single node with modest hardware with >2 billion log rows. It has a really cool dynamic schema feature too.» [9] Fun fact: at least 4 users are using Garage[10] as the object storage, this OSS project looks really promising and made the HN front page a few months ago[11], we really cherish the OSS for... - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago
