    it doesn't right now, but the fallback feature is planned for in a future release. mostly because there's no simple way to handle the classic fallbacks like aws, gcp and azure, and…

    Show HN: Catsu: A unified Python client for embedding APIs

    We open-sourced catsu, a Python client for embedding APIs. The problem: every embedding provider has a different SDK with different bugs. OpenAI has undocumented token limits. Voya…

    Hey! Right now, some things are somewhat hard-coded to be Cloudflare compatible. If someone's willing, you can just deploy this without Cloudflare, but you'd need to dig into the c…

    Yes, that's quite fair re:Cloudflare! I couldn't find the right words to describe this, in comparison to something like Github Gist. I suppose "Own-your-data" since the D1 db gener…

    Show HN: Pbnj – A minimal, self-hosted pastebin you can deploy in 60 seconds

    I'm sure folks here have seen pastebins a thousand times. There's no innovation left in this space – and that's kind of the point. When I wanted to self-host a pastebin, every opti…

    That's pretty cool! I believe a research paper called LumberChunker recently evaluated that to be pretty decent as well. Thanks for responding, I'll try to make it easier to use so…

    Just to clarify, the 21MB is the size of the package itself! Other package sizes are way larger. Memory footprint of the chunking itself would vary widely based on the dataset, and…

    Comment #42101672

    Right now, we haven't worked on adding support for code -- some things like comments (#, //) have punctuations that adversely affect chunking, along with indentation and other issu…

    Show HN: Chonkie – A Fast, Lightweight Text Chunking Library for RAG

    I built Chonkie because I was tired of rewriting chunking code for RAG applications. Existing libraries were either too bloated (80MB+) or too basic, with no middle ground. Core fe…
