I am actually working on a project where I have scraped ~400k recipes, and now am in the process of wrapping them in a little search engine.

The idea is to have a little python/node script + sqlite file that you can use to search locally for recipes offline. Then all you'd need to do is write a plugin for the notes app of your choice.

The worse the web becomes, and the worse the stability of internet access becomes due to climate change, I will probably be doing more archival projects like this for offline access.

And how do you solve curation (or even just ranking) for these 400k recipes?
Vector search over title + tags.
How is that a substitute for Hazan?
