Child molesters and abusers often think what they are doing isn't wrong. They create all sorts of justifications for it. But that doesn't mean what they are doing isn't wrong.

AuraGem Search now at 600,266 pages. It almost got up to where geminispace.info is now (~611,000 pages), but then Windows decided to update after me having postponed that update for several weeks, lol.

Lastest AuraGem Update: The "Edit Text" link is only shown for posts that are under 1024 bytes, because of Gemini's URL limit. However, a new "Edit with Titan" will be added later for editing bigger posts. Plans for Future AuraGem Ask Updates: 1. Edit with Titan for small and big posts. 2. Answers will all be listed on the main question page as long as they are under 1024 bytes. If above 1024 bytes, then a link to "See More" and goto the answer's page will be provided. This will work much like how Station's homepage works. 3. Add a few more navigational links to places. 4. Answers sorted by upvotes. 5. Recent activity and questions for each topic page. 6. Deleting answers.

A lot of times I see this tendency to overgeneralize things. I wish we all could instead contextualize more.

So, apparently, after XHTML 1.1, the W3C tried to move towards XHTML 2, but a new web standards group (WHATWG) worked on HTML5, so W3C ended up accepting HTML5. Now it seems they are trying to work on HTML5 and XHTML5 in parallel. What's interesting is the benefits of XHTML, the ability to use XML namespaces for combining different XML "formats" in one XML document, seems to be becomming a bit redundant since the addition of web components and custom elements (which ends up making HTML5 more extensible), as well as the ability to embed SVG and MathML. However, web components I think needs JS. Idk, feels like a bit of a mess, and a bit redundant, imo.

@freezr I see you tried out AuraGem Ask! The BSD topic has been added :) Btw, did you have problems setting a title for your questions? I see one had just "#" and the other had an empty title.

Working on a new service for Gemini that will hopefully provide more content to the geminispace. Started it today. It's possible that I could finish and release it today as well.

I don't understand why Gemini Search Engines have gotten into the habbit of not crawling big capsules, like proxies/web-mirrors and journal or news publications. I get the intention behind it, because they can sometimes skew results, or they take a long time, but those things are fixable. If big capsules and proxies skew results, then you change your searching algorithm, not take away people's ability to search that content. If they take a long time to crawl, then just do them at the end after all of the more important content has been crawled. If their contents take too much space, then be more selective on those specific sites about what you store.

AuraGem Search is now at 415,900 pages! It almost scanned all of Geminispace, and would have finished probably in another day or so, but then the crawler crashed :( I will wait until next week to crawl again, and hopefully I have fixed the problems by then.

I have just made some edits to my latest devlog post. I wanted to make very clear that this is a *descriptive* study on how well Search Engines match user expectations. It does not focus on whether this is viable, or how to achieve such accuracy. Thanks for all who read it, and hopefully these edits make the purpose of the article more clear :) gemini://auragem.space/devlog/20220807.gmi

I have just posted a new devlog. More works needs to be done if we want to be more accurate with our conclusions, but this is a start. Hopefully it is useful. Gemini Search Results Study, Part 1: gemini://auragem.space/devlog/20220807.gmi

@acidus Another thing that I think would greatly help all of the search engines is to send the lang parameter in the mimetype for gemipedia articles (and welcome page) of languages other than english.

What things do you think are missing within Geminispace?

💬 8 Replies · 2 Thumbs · 1 year ago

👽 krixano

@acidus It might be good to put your "Where in the World?" in your robots.txt so that your server won't be bombarded with a million requests from crawlers (since there's a ton of different combinations that can be crawled with 6 spots of countries). I also wanted to let you know that I've just stopped my own crawler from crawling it so that it doesn't bombard your server, and to help improve search results.

Read this post a while ago from @acidus - gemini://gemi.dev/gemlog/2022-05-10-say-thankyou.gmi I greatly appreciate the sentiment behind this post, because a lot of people have given up and dedicated their time for Gemini so that other's can use their projects. Their work cost them time and effort, and it's given to us for free, and that warrants saying Thank You more often. So... [1/2]
