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.

Friends don't let friends export to CSV
The reason why USV did not use the proper ASCII codes for field separator and record separator is a bit too pragmatic for me…

Ask HN: Can you help with IANA, + RFC and ABNF?
I'm working on standardizing a data exchange format and media time, and seeking advice here from anyone experienced with how to do this.
For example, how to properly submit a request to Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA.org), or Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF.org), and proofread the Augmented Backus-Naur Form (ABNF).
The project is Unicode Separated Values (USV) and media type is "text/usv".
Work in progress here: https://github.com/sixarm/usv
My email is [email protected]
Thanks!

Modernizing AWK, a 45-year old language, by adding CSV support
Ben this is great, thank you. Would you be open to adding Unicode Separated Values (USV) as well? It's much like CSV and also simpler because of no escaping and no quoting. I can donate $50 to you or your charity of choice as a token of thanks and encouragement.

AI for Web Devs: Addressing Bugs, Security, & Reliability
Simon Willison has pointed out several examples of prompt injection attacks and why it may never be a solved problem:
-
Where Have All the Websites Gone?
I want more people to have link blogs.
I have one in the sidebar of https://simonwillison.net/ which I've been running since November 2003. You can search through all 6,836 links here: https://simonwillison.net/search/?type=blogmark
I can post things to it with a bookmarklet. It has an Atom feed.
It's such a low-friction way of publishing. A lot of https://daringfireball.net works like this too. I also like https://waxy.org/ and https://kottke.org/ for this.
I'd love to see more of these.

Moving Away from Substack
My approach is to publish to my own blog at https://simonwillison.net and then copy and paste content from that into a Substack newsletter at https://simonw.substack.com a few times a month.
It's been working really well.
Substack don't have an API, but they do support copy and paste - so I built myself a tool that assembles my blog content into rich text I can copy and paste straight into the Substack editor.
I wrote about how that works here: https://simonwillison.net/2023/Apr/4/substack-observable/

Building a Blog in Django
Hah, yeah securing something like WordPress can be a challenge, especially if you're running a bunch of plugins.
My blog is a pretty straight-forward Django setup without many other dependencies, so it's a lot less of an attack surface: https://github.com/simonw/simonwillisonblog

Show HN: Superfunctions – AI prompt templates as an API
That specific prompt is just an example and it's pretty bad, it was the shortest and simplest prompt I could come up with that would be easily understood.
You can set response content-types (text, html, json, etc...). If you use json it will get pretty good results because I have some is some logic to attempt to pick out json or json5 objects from the text output. I dont yet have logic to support json arrays, but I'm hoping to add that soon.
But still client side validation is needed for applications with untrusted input. I dont attempt to solve prompt injection. I saw a lot of interesting posts on this topic from this blog https://simonwillison.net/. I need to find sometime to read more about it.
Try this one instead, it should be better

Stopping at 90%
I've started to consider "commit to writing about it" as the price I have to pay for giving into the lure of another project. It's one of the main reasons I publish so much content on https://simonwillison.net/ and https://til.simonwillison.net
A project with a published write-up unlocks so much more value than one which you complete without giving others a chance of understanding what you built.
I've maintained internal blogs (sometimes just a Slack channel or Confluence area) at previous employers for this purpose too.

Stanford A.I. Courses
I think you are asking specifically about practical LLM engineering and not the underlying science.
Honestly this is all moving so fast you can do well by reading the news, following a few reddits/substacks, and skimming the prompt engineering papers as they come out every week (!).
https://www.latent.space/p/ai-engineer provides an early manifesto for this nascent layer of the stack.
Zvi writes a good roundup (though he is concerned mostly with alignment so skip if you don’t like that angle): https://thezvi.substack.com/p/ai-18-the-great-debate-debates
Simon W has some good writeups too: https://simonwillison.net/
I strongly recommend playing with the OpenAI APIs and working with langchain in a Colab notebook to get a feel for how these all fit together. Also, the tools here are incredibly simple and easy to understand (very new) so looking at, say, https://github.com/minimaxir/simpleaichat/tree/main/simpleai... or https://github.com/smol-ai/developer and digging in to the prompts, what goes in system vs assistant roles, how you gourde the LLM, etc.

tsv-utils - eBay's TSV Utilities: Command line tools for large, tabular data files. Filtering, statistics, sampling, joins and more.
pg_cjk_parser - Postgres CJK Parser pg_cjk_parser is a fts (full text search) parser derived from the default parser in PostgreSQL 11. When a postgres database uses utf-8 encoding, this parser supports all the features of the default parser while splitting CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) characters into 2-gram tokens. If the database's encoding is not utf-8, the parser behaves just like the default parser.
