What does HackerNews think of jina?

Interestingly, I think that almost all of the downsides listed in the article and in the comments go away if you use a good framework for creating microservices (example for this: [0]):

No internal glue code, no overhead by writing network interfaces, no slow HTTP calls (faster gRPC instead), no manual handling of asynchronous tasks.

What kinda thing do you want to search? Text I guess? But there are search engines for images, gifs, video, all kinds of stuff.

I'm working at an open-source project that builds an AI-powered search framework [0], and I've built some examples in very few lines of code (for searching fashion products via image or text [1], PDF text/images/tables search [2]) and one of our community members built a protein search engine [3].

A good place to start might be with a no-code solution like (shameless self-plug time) Jina NOW [4], which lets you build a search engine and GUI with just one CLI command.

Honor to see our opensource company Jina AI and our opensource neural search framework Jina (https://github.com/jina-ai/jina) inspired another startup. I see quite some similarity between Jina's Protobuf and Pinecones's Protobuf, some even on the comment & naming level. Great starting point for potential synergy.
