• Making a huge collection of PDF's searchable (They are OCR'd already)

  Recoll is free/open source (GPL) that can index PDFs and search them very quickly. It uses Xapian under the hood. I have over 165,000 documents indexed on an old laptop running Linux and can query them all in a split second. Source: 7 months ago

• An alternative to Elasticsearch that runs on a few MBs of RAM

  + xapian which has been around a while, and while gpl licensed, is quite capable https://xapian.org/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• ZincSearch – lightweight alternative to Elasticsearch written in Go

  Tangentially related if you need search without the clustering and high availability story of elastic search and friends I highly recommend Xapian. Its like the SQLite of search. Single library that provides the basic set of features you would expect in a quality search experience: facets, ranked search, boolean operators, stemming etc etc. https://xapian.org/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Need CLI tool that can handle large txt files and another tool that can conduct a lightning fast search of disk files.

  For fast searching, it usually requires indexing the files in question. There are a number of text-file indexing solutions, many of which use xapian, sphinx, or lucene/solr under the hood. Based on conditions (watching files/directories, cron jobs, new-mail triggers, etc), they'll add/remove files to the index, and you can then use a corresponding command to compose queries across that data.

• Are there better apps than google translate that have the same function?

  I prefer https://www.deepl.com/ and https://languagetool.org/de might be also helpful. Source: over 1 year ago

• What do we say to typos? Not today!

  I was already used to wiggly lines in my favorite IDE IntelliJ and really missed the spell and grammar check capabilities in other editors especially when writing something in the browser. A colleague told me that IntelliJ is using LanguageTool since I'm pretty satisfied with the analysis inside it. Therefore, I looked around on GitHub for a way of hosting my own LanguageTool server. I came across this... - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago

• Need help with writing (pleaseeeeee )

  Hi. Maybe before posting on r/WriteStreakGerman and getting a proper correction you could check the writing on these sites (LanguageTool, Duden-Mentor), to catch some of the possible errors. Regarding shyness, put anonymity to good use. Source: over 2 years ago

• Grammarly for german

  The LanguageTool extension is decent and picks up on a lot of mistakes, but nowhere close to all of them. For example, it will identify if you wrote an article that can never go with a given noun (like "der Auto"), but will not recognize a case error (like using "das Auto" in Dativ). It will also often pick up on things like comma mistakes. Source: over 2 years ago
