Wonder if white noise counts as noise from this perspective. Or if it’s mainly unexpected noises that make sleep quality worse.

The day I discovered that marquee tags have a direction attribute, using which you can make the text go up/down left/right and use multiple of these tags, is still etched in my memory.

We generally tend to engage in in-depth conversations with our users. But in this case, when you opened the GitHub issue, we noticed that you’re part of the Meilisearch team, so we didn’t want to spend too much time explaining something in-

If anyone's interested, a while ago I downloaded the MusicBrainz database and built a search-as-you-type experience here with about 32M songs: https://songs-search.typesense.org The dataset has been very helpful to benchmar

We’ve interacted before on Twitter and GitHub, and I want to address your point about Raft in Typesense since you mention it explicitly: I can confidently say that Raft in Typesense is NOT broken. We run thousands of clusters on Typesense C

I'm biased, but I'd recommend exploring Typesense for search. It's an open source alternative to Algolia + Pinecone, optimized for speed (since it's in-memory) and an out-of-the-box dev experience. E-commerce is also a v

Here's an example of semantic search: Let's say your dataset has the words "Oceans are blue" in it. With keyword search, if someone searches for "Ocean", they'll see that record, since it's a close ma

I work on Typesense [1] - historically considered an open source alternative to Algolia. We then launched vector search in Jan 2023, and just last week we launched the ability to generate embeddings from within Typesense. You'd just ne

We don't plan to support external vector databases, since we want to build Typesense as a vector + keyword search datastore by itself.

Typesense has a vector store / search built-in: https://typesense.org/docs/0.24.1/api/vector-search.html In the upcoming version, we've also added the ability to automatically generate embeddings fr

You can also use this library with Typesense, which is an open source alternative to Algolia: https://github.com/typesense/typesense-autocomplete-demo Disclaimer: I work on Typesense.

I get this question frequently - why not use FAISS or ANNOY directly, instead of a vector database, so glad to see this aspect covered in this article. Plug: If you're ever looking for an open source alternative to Pinecone, we recentl

Yup. If you store timestamps as Unix timestamps you can gave Typesense sort on text match score and the timestamp field: https://typesense.org/docs/guide/ranking-and-relevance.html#...

If I'm reading this correctly, it looks like search requests are now charged separate from the number of documents. So if I have 5M records and 5M searches per month, in the old pricing scheme I would have paid $5K per month. In the ne

We added HNSW-based vector search to Typesense as well recently: https://typesense.org/docs/0.24.0/api/vector-search.html So you can combine attribute-based filters along with nearest-neighbor search. Put tog

I second this. Thank you for sharing! I wonder if this is a custom visualization pattern, or if there is general a name for this type of visualization. Does any one know?
