News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Do you have any more information about this?
I've been tinkering with my own version of this idea off and on for months, and it's great to see someone finally make the thing that I've been wanting since LLMs hit the scene. Congrats on everything you've shipped!
This is very interesting! I noticed that your TypeScript SDK link results in a 404: https://antfly.io/docs/sdks -> https://github.com/antflydb/antfly-ts

https://thelinell.com isn’t much, but it’s mine!
If you like this idea, I made something similar at https://saguaro.thelinell.com, although it works using various RSS feeds.

Do you have any examples of why RoR is more time consuming to refactor than other languages?

This comment is a little confusing unless you click through -- the pricing page says that it's free to use with no strings attached.

Re:Build a search engine, not a vector DB on Wednesday December 20, 2023 @12:20PM (#38711019)
It's worth saying that ES can work as a vector store itself, so it's very easy to handle a couple different kinds of searches this way.
Re:Ruby Tip – Interactive debugging without the need for gems on Wednesday November 22, 2023 @12:11PM (#38381927)
Another pro-tip in this vein is `object.methods` to see a list of the methods to which the object you're messing with will respond. I use this all of the time when I'm diving into something trying to figure out what's going on.
Yes, it's called retrieval augmented generation.

How?
I don't have links or anything handy, so take this with a bit of a grain of salt, but I _have_ seen things that confirm my anecdata that sugar free drinks are pretty horrible for your gut microbiome. I do still prefer them to their calorie-dense versions when I have one, but I think it's worth being very cautious about drinking tons of the stuff and assuming it's at all "better".
Re:Loneliness is stronger when not alone on Tuesday June 20, 2023 @10:45AM (#36404800)
I can for sure confirm that this happens! It comes from good intentions, of course.
I wrote about my experience with this here: https://thelinell.com/The-Notion-Experiment-8191f33eaa864469...

The main idea for me was to just reduce the barrier to entry so that writing more was too easy to avoid. I already use Notion for taking notes throughout the day, so transitioning to also jotting down blog thoughts has been very easy and has increased the amount of writing that I do.

A few years back I built a tool that pulled your data from MyFitnessPal and calculated a running TDEE for you, so that it was easy to adjust week to week. It was very useful to me and I managed to get somewhere in the range of 100 active users before I ended up moving on to other projects.

I say that to say good luck, I think your app will be useful!

Re:DRUIDS: Datadog Reusable User Interface Design System on Tuesday September 20, 2022 @10:28AM (#32912110)
I too have had more spam calls from Datadog than any other tech company. Their product seems great but after what feels like harassment, I’ve never wanted to give them my money.
