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: LLMs can generate valid JSON 100% of the time
I have some other comment on this thread where I point out why I don’t think it’s superficial. Would love to get your feedback on that if you feel like spending more time on this thread.
But it’s not obscure? FlashText was a somewhat popular paper at the time (2017) with a popular repo (https://github.com/vi3k6i5/flashtext). Their paper was pretty derivative of Aho-Corasick, which they cited. If you think they genuinely fucked up, leave an issue on their repo (I’m, maybe to your surprise lol, not the author).
Anyway, I’m not a fan of the whatabboutery here. I don’t think OG’s paper is up to snuff on its lit review - do you?

[P] what is the most efficient way to pattern matching word-to-word?
The library flashtext basically creates these tries based on keywords you give it.

What is the most efficient way to find substrings in strings?
Seems like https://github.com/vi3k6i5/flashtext would be better suited here.

[P] Library for end-to-end neural search pipelines
I started developing this tool after using haystack. Pipelines are easier to build with cherche because of the operators. Also, cherche offers FlashText, Lunr.py retrievers that are not available in Haystack and that I needed for the project I wanted to solve. Haystack is clearly more complete but I think also more complex to use.

How can I speed up thousands of re.subs()?
For the text part not requiring regex, https://github.com/vi3k6i5/flashtext might help

My first NLP pipeline using SpaCy: detect news headlines with company acquisitions
Spacy for parsing the Headlines, remove stop words etc. might be ok but I think the problem is quite narrow so a set of fixed regex searches might work quite well. If regex is too slow, try: https://github.com/vi3k6i5/flashtext

What tech do I need to learn to programmatically parse ingredients from a recipe?
I would probably use something like [flashtext](https://github.com/vi3k6i5/flashtext) which should not be too hard to port to kotlin.

Prompting LLMs to constrain output
have been experimenting with guidance and lmql. a bit too early to give any well formed opinions but really do like the idea of constraining llm output.

[D] Prompt Engineering Seems Like Guesswork - How To Evaluate LLM Application Properly?
the only time i've ever felt like it was anything other than guesswork was using LMQL . not coincidentally, LMQL works with LLMs as autocomplete engines rather than q&a ones.

The Problem with LangChain
LLM calls are just function calls, so most functional composition is already afforded by any general-purpose language out there. If you need fancy stuff, use something like Python‘s functools.
Working on https://github.com/eth-sri/lmql (shameless plug, sorry), we have always found that compositional abstractions on top of LMQL are mostly there already, once you internalize prompts being functions.
- Is there a UI that can limit LLM tokens to a preset list?
