Use kimi 2.6 for planning and a cheap model (preferably local) for execution, and then kimi once again for reviewing it. Then finally I review the code. Saves a lot on tokens.

You can sign up for a plan on the kimi code platform and use it via the pi.dev coding agent, or opencode. In planning, I’d say it’s almost on par with Claude Opus.

Thanks Philippe! You guys have been super helpful on slack!

So it depends on the app - e.g., Google has domain-wide delegation where the workspace admin can provide service account creds that allow us to impersonate all users in the workspa…

Fair point, although I think we have OpenAI to blame for that - for buying chat.com and pointing it to the most popular textual AI interface of them all :)

So far both projects are quite similar… the only major difference being the search index. Onyx uses vespa.ai for BM25 and vector search, I decided to go down the Postgres-only rout…

That's a good point, it might make sense to clarify that for individuals who want to self-host. I'll make the change, thanks!

Exactly, enterprise customers almost always use private model endpoints on their cloud provider for any serious deployments. Data stays within the customer's VPC, data security and…

Thank you! Typical RAG implementations I’ve seen take the user query and directly run it against the full-text search and embedding indexes. This produces sub-par results because t…

Not yet, there’s a Microsoft connector implementation, but it only does Sharepoint, OneDrive, Outlook etc. and I haven’t tested it thoroughly yet. Teams required some special setup…

Thanks for sharing! Big part of the reason why I decided on postgres, everything I've read about people using it in prod tells me that most organizations never really grow beyond r…

Yeah, Omni uses Postgres and pgvector for search. ParadeDB is essentially just Postgres with the pgsearch extension that brings in Tantivy, a full-text search engine (like Apache L…

Oops, sorry! That page is still a WIP, haven't pushed it yet. The plan was to expose the main search and chat APIs so that users can build integrations with third-party messaging a…

I've done small scale experiments with up to 100-500k rows, and did not notice any significant degradation in search query latency - p95 still well under 1s. I haven't directly com…

Thank you! Currently permissions are handled in the app layer - it's simply a WHERE clause filter that restricts access to only those records that the user has read permissions for…

Hey HN! Over the past few months, I've been working on building Omni - a workplace search and chat platform that connects to apps like Google Drive/Gmail, Slack, Confluence, etc. E…

Hey folks, Just wanted to share an interesting experiment I ran to see what kind of performance gains can be achieved by fine-tuning a model to code from a single repo. Results: Th…

I wrote a short article explaining the Transformer model and how it works, using the Manim library for generating animations. Please read through if the topic interests you, and le…

It doesn’t make sense to have your build tool call another build tool to actually perform the build. In that case, why I would not just use Gradle directly?

Congrats on building and launching your project! That said, let me just go ahead and share the obvious: https://xkcd.com/936/

The botanical classification doesn’t matter - coconut oil is primarily saturated fat which is what makes it better for you over the PUFA that comes from seed oils.

There should be an 'X' at the top right, is it missing for you?
