Dev first

You might not know it yet, but vector embeddings are everywhere. They are the building blocks of many machine learning and deep learning algorithms used by applications ranging from search to AI assistants. If you’re considering building your own application in this space, you will likely run into vector embeddings at some point. In this post, we’ll try to get a basic intuition for what vector embeddings are and how they can be used.

Discover Vector Databases: How They Work, Examples, Use Cases, Pros & Cons, Selection and Implementation. They have combined capabilities of traditional databases and standalone vector indexes while specializing for vector embeddings.

Making your first developer relations hire can be fraught with challenges. Here are some of the qualities I look for when hiring.

Unlike many other technical portmanteaus, “GitOps” is worth defining, says @rwwmike, and here’s why:

A practical guide for how to grow your developer tool startup's Twitter presence.

Anyone who has ever tried to sell software to developers probably learned pretty quickly that traditional B2B marketing tactics just plain don’t work.

Society runs on software but software building tools are buckling under the demand. In this report,

When you build a new developer tool (a database, an AI/ML framework, a devops tool, etc...), you have to figure out how to make developers aware of it and start using it in their project. Traditional marketing techniques don’t really help. Literally zero developers saw your billboard on 101 during their commute or your keynote talk at Oracle open world and thought “I’ll use that distributed database in my thing at work”. But developers aren’t going to find your great new Thing on their own. You
