Show HN: I made a website to semantically search ArXiv papers 16 by Quizzical4230 | 1 comments on Hacker News. As a grad student (and an ADHDer), I had trouble doing literature review systematically. To combat this, I made a website that finds similar papers using the meaning of the thing I am looking for. I used MixedBread's [^1] embedding model to generate vectors from the abstracts. I store and search similar vectors using Milvus [^2] and finally use Gradio [^3] to serve the frontend. I update the vector database weekly by pulling the metadata dataset from Kaggle [^4]. To speed up the search process on my free oracle instance, I binarise the embeddings and use Hamming distance as a metric. I would love your feedback on the site :) Happy Holidays!

Ask HN: Do you backup your Emails? 5 by michidk | 8 comments on Hacker News. I wonder if its just me or other people feel the urge as well to backup their emails. I feel oddly attached to my older emails and have the fear of loosing something important which might hide in my mail archives. Also I don't necessarily trust some of my email providers (nor my self hosted one) and soonish have to clear one out because I run out of storage. So what tools are you using to backup your emails? Is there a service which takes care of this automatically?

Show HN: Svader – Create GPU-rendered Svelte components 6 by sokmastr | 0 comments on Hacker News. Svader is a library for rendering 2D shaders on Svelte websites, using either WebGL or WebGPU. It's streamlined for the specific use case of rendering 2D graphics using fragment shaders as an alternative to SVG or the JS canvas API, so it's not meant for doing 3D objects like three.js, for example. This started as something I needed for my own project, but I eventually decided to split it into a separate library. I've since found that this use case fits really well into the Svelte compiler-based approach and its fine-grained reactivity system. In general, I think using shaders like these has some really positive upsides compared to traditional ways of doing graphics on the web — not just for games and stuff, but also for something like data visualizations and aesthetic details. My dream is that one day, you'll see web developers using small, isolated shader components u...
