    It’s funny how many agentic things decompose into a DSPy RLM with specialized tools, although the tools here do the heavy lifting.

    I appreciate your time checking it out! I've used and keep using DSPy a lot for work, and I felt I was missing a limb in my Rails-related projects. Let me know if you have any thou…

    Thanks for sharing your experience! I know there's many of us out there dabbling with LLMs and some solid businesess built on Ruby, lurking in the background without publishing muc…

    Maintainer of DSPy.rb here. The key difference is the level of abstraction: RubyLLM gives you a clean API for LLM calls and tool definitions. You're still writing prompts and manag…

    Same here. T::Struct and T::Enums at API boundaries has been the sweet spot—typed request/response models, runtime validation at ingress/egress. I’ve been using this pattern for AP…

    You’re right they’re different models. The path would be Falcon + async-job-adapter-active_job. I am exploring eliminating worker processes, so jobs run as fibers in the same proce…

    Both model prompts as functions. BAML is a DSL - write .baml files, generate code, get validated structured outputs. DSPy is a programming paradigm. I like to look at it like the M…

    Nice work. Thanks for sharing it! I've been thinking about using something like this for LLM agent workflows - the outbound action pattern would work well for tool calls that need …

    I work with DSPy in Python and felt it was missing in the Ruby ecosystem. So I started https://github.com/vicentereig/dspy.rb : a composable, type-safe version built for Rubyists w…

    Long story, short: I don't keep track of them. I felt the need to protect myself from these sources of FOMO. When it is necessary to set up a group chat, I like them short-lived. Y…

    Totally agree, as an avid cyclist and commuter in SF. Check his commute, 60mi/6,000ft days are fun, and a hell of a workout! ;) Definitely he's wearing a kit for a reason!
