I really appreciate how "Jony Ive" this looks. Feels like they absolutely nailed the style.

I personally feel like it looks like a disposable tech hardware product, but to each their own. I'm sure a lot of people will love it.

Working on publishing those, but publishing benchmarks requires a lot of attention to detail so it will likely be a bit longer.

Yea we did and actually use Daytona for another product, but it would have been too slow here.

yea chromadb is not the point. multiple data storage solutions work

We would also be super interested to see that comparison. I agree that there isn't a specific reason why Chroma would be required to build something like this.

I agree that would have been the way to go given more time and resources. However, setting up a FUSE mount would have taken significantly longer and required additional infrastructure.

100% agree. However, if there were no resource tradeoffs, then a FUSE mount would probably be the way to go.

Modern OCR tooling is quite good. If the knowledge you are adding into your search database is able to be OCR'd then I think the approach we took here is able to be generalized.
