why not write all code in assembly?

didn't expect someone to post us here yet, we're still working on our launch! We have been building BAML for around 3 years -- originally it was a DSL for getting structured output…

these painpoints seem moot in a world where AI agents are writing all the code.

kind of surprised Swift didn't launch with this by default, built in-house

this is really neat. Was using or-tools to solve my friend's scheduling problems with coworkers.

We are working on making our programming language BAML turing-complete. https://github.com/boundaryml/baml It is a language that is embeddable in other programming languages, with …

It's 'basically, a made-up language'. It's just tongue-in-cheek because when we started this it was just a ridiculous proposition to try and make a DSL. I'll add it in!

Boundary (YC W23) | Software engineer (compilers) | Seattle, USA (in person) | Full-time We are building a new programming language (BAML) to build AI agents -- the "typescript" fo…

You may also want to check out BAML https://github.com/BoundaryML/baml - a DSL for prompt templates that are literally treated like functions. the prompt.yaml format (which this pr…

super interesting to see how this is marketed: - Created by an AWS team but aws logo is barely visible at the bottom. - Actually cute logo and branding. - Focuses on the lead devs …

We're making a prompting DSL (BAML https://github.com/BoundaryML/baml ) and what we've found is that all the syntax rules can easily be encoded into a Cursor Rules file, which we f…

You might also find Semantic Streaming interesting. It's t he same concept but applied to llm token streaming. It's used in BAML (the ai framework). https://www.boundaryml.com/blog…

it's kind of wild -- none of the multimillion dollar VSCode forks (Cursor, windsurf) are working properly at the moment. It seems open-vsx is quite a vulnerable single point of fai…

It's kind of insane going from 76% to 3% on the new version of a benchmark. We clearly need more rapid progress on the creation of benchmarks. Then again, I wonder -- if a benchmar…

Sometimes you don't have access to a model, so this approach still works in that scenario. We also have several users that have anecdotally told us they get worse results using con…

This is our interactive playground that uses our framework (BAML https://github.com/BoundaryML/baml ) to do structured outputs with R1, without the use of tool-calling APIs or fine…

Thanks, we also do support swapping models at runtime! Will incorporate this feedback.

How do you organize your prompts? Do you use a templating language like jinja? How complex are your prompts? Do you have any open source examples? I’m genuinely curious since if we…

I found it interesting how DSPy created the Signatures concept: https://dspy.ai/learn/programming/signatures/ We took this kind of concept all the way to making a DSL called BAML, …
