New match engine: associations

[j000k]

Hello Everyone!

Last weeks I'm working on very interesting idea and have decided to share it here and then launch it. We all like search engines like google or duckduckgo and now imagine you can search inside other people searches.

An example: Alice googles Ga, Bob googles Gb. Ga and Gb look alike but still are not exist in social space. Alice and Bob are real people who can't find Ga and Gb beacause Ga,Gb are not exist... but they search it together. So they can find each other! That s great. 🍅🦋😇☝🏻🤜😏😏👈🏿😘👆🥑

Another example from real world: my college associates "violin", "Chinese language" with "childhood". Nevermind but fact) Now imagine she searches for people with the same associations. Since some time another one searched for "violin, Chinese language" -> "childhood" and now they match each other *[1].

Another crazy example: X want to find for the people who think on "evening smartcontracts under MDMA" or "deeplearning IDE with deeplearning inside" or any other crazy theme. You will find people with the exact the same intentions. So you can match by any interest!

And last mystic but very important example for Brain sciences. Example. At the morning you remember a very strange phrase from the dream. You write it down, then search for it and found another one who also try to find that dreamland artifact. Random? Maybe) ps: such tool can be useful for xenoglossia phenomena research.

I put the prototype here http://match2.link:5000/ *[2] and also think that it's very important to have ability to stay anonymous and support pastebin service style. [Today it's working in DEMO mode without any backend. Hope to run at 5 May. UPDATE: 15 May *[3]]

[1]: Let call it as associative search which have 2 string fields.

What do you think?

So essentially it would search users based on their search input? Kinda similar to how search work in many apps (eg: Pinterest, Facebook etc). I'm not sure if anyone would be interested with a stand-alone search engine like this. IMO they'd just use their apps and find whoever share their interest here.

On top of that, privacy will always be an issue as you essentially will track them. I don't like another Google or Facebook.

This is not a Google or facebook, this is a search for people who are looking for the same thing as you, as I understand

Fully support and fully agree with you. I see it as a fully opensource engine with data in homomorphic databases like https://github.com/zerodb. The first version will be more simple. Any suggestion on that?

In facebook you can't find other with the same associations. In facebook you are strongly connected to your social net and it's hard to go out of the shape. And WHATS REALLY IMPORTANT HERE that you can search using very very strange word set, because there is nothing social connected to that set. Because usually that set is not mean smth real. In that match2link engine: you can search for the same unreal mindset, worldview horizons an other cool random matches from the childhood or own experience. Thats the different.

In math sense, for me, it's mean that you usually search information using constants or derivative. Here you use n-th derivative: d', d'', d''' ... .

You are exactly right. You find the people
who are a) searching the same as you in first case and
who b) have the same associations as you in the second.

You catch.
