Quick note on how it works and how I've done my batch embedding engine IgniteMS. The whole thing runs as one process using Rust, reading input, tokenizing, packing batches, keeping the queue full. TensorRT handles inference. Python is only as a wrapper. I built it this way because when you use more than couple of GPUs, the GPUs stop being the problem. CPU cannot feed them fast enough. One A100 can go through batches faster than Python can tokenize and feed, so the GPU just sits there idle waitin

LLMs are good at SQL. It's precise, expressive, and unambiguous. If you connect an MCP server to Postgres, then the agent can query it directly. The same cannot be said for NoSQL, and given how many people use NoSQL databases, I’m surprised there isn’t more discussion about it. Part of the problem is diversity. MongoDB, DynamoDB, Cassandra, Redis, and Neo4j all have different query models. There's no shared interface for an LLM to reason about. So instead of writing a query, the agent has to wri

Hi HN, we’re Nick and Drew, and we’re building boxes.dev – the first cloud-only agentic dev environment (ADE) that gives every Codex and Claude Code agent its own cloud computer. We’re two engineers who previously built Gem (co-founder/CTO and first hire), and we spent the last year coding almost exclusively using Codex and Claude Code. It’s been a huge change to how we code, and it’s been exhilarating seeing the models keep getting better – but we eventually realized that developing on localhos

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. - the world's biggest semiconductor-maker - is struggling to meet demands from American customers even with its factory buildout in the US, according to reports from Reuters and Bloomberg. "Customer demand is so high, and we can only support so much," TSMC CEO C.C. Wei said after a shareholder meeting on […]

Author here. I wrote this as a visual companion to the 2017 FAISS paper ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1702.08734 ), focused on the parts I found hardest to grok from text alone. The article covers a subset of what FAISS does, with the paper as the source of truth. NSG, FastScan, IMI are not covered here, they'll get their own articles. I'd be especially interested in feedback on: - the IVFPQ / IVFADC explanation, particularly the LUT reuse argument - whether the GPU part captures enough of the actual

Hi HN, I am having AI build me a local Gin Rummy trainer and it cannot figure out medium and hard bot strategies, they keep losing to easy! The point of this is to help me learn so I don't really know how to advise it on strategies. Right now it's just looping through tests and modifying but it keeps not improving. Does anyone have any recommendations or guidance for strategies I could suggest to it?
