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.

What contributing to Open-source is, and what it isn't
I tend to agree with this sentiment. Many junior devs and/or those in college want to contribute. Then they feel entitled to merge a PR that they worked hard on often without guidance. I'm all for working with people but projects have standards and not all ideas make sense. In many cases, especially with commercial open source, the project is the base of a companies identity. So it's not just for drive-by ideas to pad a resume or finish a school project.
For those who do want to do this, I'd recommend writing an issue and/or reaching out to the developers to engage in a dialogue. This takes work but it will increase the likelihood of a PR being merged.

Bootstrap or VC?
Bootstrapping only works if you have the runway to do it and you don't feel the need to grow fast.
With NeuML (https://neuml.com), I've went the bootstrapping route. I've been able to build a fairly successful open source project (txtai 6K stars https://github.com/neuml/txtai) and a revenue positive company. It's a "live within your means" strategy.
VC funding can have a snowball effect where you need more and more. Then you're in the loop of needing funding rounds to survive. The hope is someday you're acquired or start turning a profit.
I would say both have their pros and cons. Not all ideas have the luxury of time.

Ask HN: What happened to startups, why is everything so polished?
I agree that in many cases people are puffing their feathers to try to be something they're not (at least not yet). Some believe in the fake it until you make it mentality.
With NeuML (https://neuml.com), the website is a simple HTML page. On social media, I'm honest about what NeuML is, that I'm in my 40s with a family and not striving to be the next Steve Jobs. I've been able to build a fairly successful open source project (txtai 6K stars https://github.com/neuml/txtai) and a revenue positive company. For me, authenticity and being genuine is most important. I would say that being genuine has been way more of an asset than liability.

Are we at peak vector database?
I'll add txtai (https://github.com/neuml/txtai) to the list.
There is still plenty of room for innovation in this space. Just need to focus on the right projects that are innovating and not the ones (re)working on problems solved in 2020/2021.

Show HN: Open-source Rule-based PDF parser for RAG
Nice project! I've long used Tika for document parsing given it's maturity and wide number of formats supported. The XHTML output helps with chunking documents for RAG.
Here's a couple examples:

would love your thoughts on this as well - https://github.com/arakoodev/edgechains
got frustrated in the same way with "Black Box Prompting - every library hides prompts/chains in layers of libraries...while it should have been declarative.
EdgeChains - allows u to specify ur prompt and chain in jsonnet. This why i think Generative AI needs declarative orchestration and not previous generations. https://github.com/arakoodev/edgechains#why-do-you-need-decl...

Show HN: Chat with your data using LangChain, Pinecone, and Airbyte
when will you have pgvector as a destination ? we (https://github.com/arakoodev/edgechains) work with a lot of enterprises and they would not move away from using redis or pgvector even as their vector store. Is there a way where we can leverage that ?
Second, for a LOT of enterprises, they want to use non-openai embedding models (minilm, GTE, BGE), will you support that. For e.g. in Edgechains we natively support BGE and minilm. Would you be able to support that ?

Langchain Is Pointless
Promptfile is written in markdown, which is unsuited for templates and config management.
I have an attempt in the same domain, would love feedback
We didnt invent a new markup - we used jsonnet which is used in large scale kubernetes and has a grammar that has been well tested for config mgmt.
