    GPTCache – Redis for LLMs▲7

    Hey folks, As much as we love GPT-4, it's expensive and can be slow at times. That's why we built GPTCache - a semantic cache for autoregressive LMs - atop the vector database Milvus and SQLite. GPTCache provides several benefits: 1) reduced expenses due to minimizing the number of requests and tokens sent to the LLM service 2) enhanced performance by fetching cached query results directly 3) improved scalability and availability by avoiding rate limits, and 4) a flexible development environment that allows developers to verify their application's features without connecting to LLM APIs or…

    An LLM response cache that's aware of dynamic data▲17

    Raymond here from Butter.dev, an LLM response cache built as a chat-completions proxy. Today we're launching a key feature for the platform: the ability to generalize on dynamic, templated inputs. Caching at the HTTP request level has the obvious problem of generalizability. Nearly no request is identical, due to templated variables (like names) and metadata (like timestamps), so exact-match cache lookups rarely hit. We solve this at Butter by using LLMs to detect dynamic content in requests and derive their inter-relationships, allowing the cache entry to be stored as a template + variables…

    CI/CD in your terminal, zero YAML▲7

    We're two engineers that got fed up with context switching. Why do we need to do a git push, open a browser tab, wait for some task to actually start, bite nails (or read HackerNews) for 10 minutes or more while dependencies are being installed for the 100th time and finally end up with an invalid YAML error. And for some reason this usually happens in the final stage of the pipeline leading up to the inevitable git commits "Fixed", "Fixed again", "Test", "Really fixed this time". We can do better. We set out to build Zippy. A CI/CD system that works from your terminal. No context…

    Hurry – Fast Rust build caching▲11

    Hey HN, we’re Eliza and Xin. We’re working on Hurry, an open source drop-in tool that adds distributed build caching to Cargo with (almost) zero configuration. Wherever you run cargo build, you can run hurry cargo build instead, and expect around 2-5x (our best benchmark is 22x) faster builds. We built this because we were dissatisfied with the current build caching options available for Rust. Buck and Bazel require learning a new tool. GitHub Actions and swatinem are too coarse-grained (either the whole cache hits, or none of it does) and finicky to debug, and cargo-chef and Docker layer…
