   Convenient and free

   It was easy to get started - I have registered the free plan and created the first tour in approximately 15 minutes. Since then I have been improving on the experience.

   Part of my application is a single-page app. It was quite techy to get this part running. Kudos for the customer support that walked me through!

• Show HN: Hacker Search – A semantic search engine for Hacker News

  Thanks for the feedback! One big distinction with the "site:https://news.ycombinator.com" hack is that the search on Hacker Search directly runs against the underlying link's contents, rather than whatever happens to be on HN. We also more directly leverage HN's curation by factoring in scores. Appreciate your suggestions; will look into building those! - Source: Hacker News / 22 days ago

• Show HN: Hacker Search – A semantic search engine for Hacker News

  Nice work! I'm sure you know that you can also search Google with site:https://news.ycombinator.com. If I were you I would probably think of a niche where one can get better results by searching HN and other relevant data sources. Another suggestion is not about the search so much but about the UI. One of the worse things about sites like HN is that it's really hard to... - Source: Hacker News / 22 days ago

• I want to create IMDB for Open source projects

  I'm not sure how much value making something "not fugly" really matters. Design should be based on functionality, not anti-fugliness. In my experience, design considerations should come after building a successful growth "feedback loop." (Or whatever you want to call it.) At that point, you may decide making your website look "polished" isn't even necessary. IMDB was certainly quite ugly for a long time.... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Ask HN: What is the ideal format to structure AI prompts?

  User input does not need to be sanitized if it is programmatically inserted into the document as the value of a key in a regular dict section. To work, I assume the target model needs to be trained on Braq documents with emphasis on the fact that only the top unnamed section contains root instructions (equivalent to the "system" role in ChatML).
