Hybrid Search: Combining BM25 and Vector Search
BM25 finds exact keyword matches. Vector search finds semantic meaning. Hybrid search combines both, typically improving precision by 15-25…
Reranking in RAG: Why Vector Search Alone Is Not Enough
Vector search (bi-encoders) is fast but approximate. Reranking (cross-encoders) is slow but precise. The two-stage approach — retrieve with…
RAG Architecture Explained: Every Component of a Retrieval-Augmented AI System
RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) grounds LLM responses in your actual documents. Every component — from ingestion to citations — matter…
MCP vs Function Calling vs Plugins: Understanding AI Tool Integration
Key Takeaway Function calling is ideal for simple, single-vendor integrations. MCP excels at scalable, cross-model tool ecosyst…
The 10GB CSV Problem
A 16GB RAM laptop is not a limitation—it's an invitation to write better code. By optimizing data types, selecting only needed columns, pro…
Why Semantic Search Alone Is Not Enough
Hybrid search combines BM25 keyword matching with vector similarity search to deliver more robust results than either approach alone. By no…
Why Do We Need Vector Databases?
Vector databases are specialized systems for storing and searching embedding vectors. FAISS is a high-performance library for in-memory sim…
What Is an Embedding?
Embeddings transform text into numerical vectors that capture meaning. Semantically similar texts produce vectors that are close together i…
What Is a Coding Agent?
The way developers write software is shifting. AI coding agents go beyond autocomplete — they can inspect entire repositories, edit multipl…
