    Using Hierarchical Clustering significantly reduces recall; this is a solution we used and abandoned three years ago.

    I really enjoyed this article. I have a lot of appreciation for PG, but some articles tend to exaggerate its capabilities, especially when it comes to PG vectors, which can be off-…

    By the way, if you’re not fully satisfied with S3Vector’s write, query, or recall performance, I’d encourage you to take a look at what we’ve built with Zilliz Cloud. It may not al…

    Postgres users often hit scaling issues — whether it's with LISTEN/NOTIFY, PGVector, or even basic relational queries. For startups, Postgres is a fantastic first choice. But plan …

    Claude Code/Cursor is using grep? Are we devolving

    Every AI coding tool has a search problem. Claude uses grep. Cursor does basic vector search. Context retrieval? Honestly, pretty mediocre. As a co-founder of a vector database com…
