Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Show HN: Tegon: AI-first, open source alternative to Jira, Linear
I've built a PoC for semantic search and chat for Jira. Just a CLI that uses the Jira API to iterate through all tickets and uses https://github.com/philippgille/chromem-go for creating, storing and querying the embeddings. The chat doesn't work very well, but the semantic search is very useful.

Vector Databases: A Technical Primer [pdf]
For Python I believe Chroma [1] can be used embedded.
For Go I recently started building chromem-go, inspired by the Chroma interface: https://github.com/philippgille/chromem-go
It's neither advanced nor for scale yet, but the RAG demo works.

I'm writing a new vector search SQLite Extension
Might have a look at this library:
https://github.com/unum-cloud/usearch
It does HNSW and there is a SQLite related project, though not quite the same thing.

Ask HN: What is the state of art approximate k-NN search algorithm today?
Another worth mentioning in this thread is usearch, though not a separate algorithm, based on HNSW with a bunch of optimizations https://github.com/unum-cloud/usearch

I've used usearch successfully for a small project: https://github.com/unum-cloud/usearch/

Python, C, Assembly β Faster Cosine Similarity
The hardest (still missing) part of efficient cosine computation distance computation is picking a good epsilon for the `sqrt` calculation and avoiding "division by zero" problems.
We have an open issue about it in USearch and a related one in SimSIMD itself, so if you have any suggestions, please share your insights - they would impact millions of devices using the library (directly on servers and mobile, and through projects like ClickHouse and some of the Google repos): https://github.com/unum-cloud/usearch/issues/320

Show HN: I scraped 25M Shopify products to build a search engine
As you scale, you may benefit from these two projects I maintain, and the Big Tech uses :)
https://github.com/unum-cloud/usearch - for faster search
https://github.com/unum-cloud/uform - for cheaper multi-lingual multi-modal embeddings

Stringzilla: Fastest string sort, search, split, and shuffle using SIMD
> It doesn't appear to query CPUID
Yes, I'm actually looking for a good way to do it for other projects as well. I've looked into a couple more libs, and here is the best I've come up with so far: https://github.com/unum-cloud/usearch/blob/f942b6f334b31716f...
> Your substring routines have multiplicative worst case
Yes, that is true. It's a very simple stupid trick, just happens to work well for me :)
> It seems quite likely that your confirmation step
We have a different library internally at Unum, that avoids this shortcoming. It has a few thousand lines of C++ templates with SIMD intrinsics... and it's definitely more efficient, but the margins aren't always high. So I kept the pure C version with inlined functions as minimal and simple as possible.
> It would actually be possible to hook Stringzilla up to `memchr`'s benchmark suite if you were interested. :-)
Yes, that would be a fun thing to do! I haven't had time to look into `memchr` yet, but would expect great perf from your lib as well. For me the State of the Art is Intel HyperScan. Probably the most advanced SIMD library overall, not just for strings. I was very impressed with their perf ~5 years ago. But the repo is 200 K LOC... So get ready to invest a weekend :)
That said, I'm a bit slammed with work right now, including open-source. Hoping to ship a new major release in UCall this week, and a minor one in USearch :)
