Hey y’all, sharing something I threw together over the weekend. I’m really into engineering blogs (i.e. Netflix, Cloudflare, apenwarr.ca, etc.) and wanted a tool that would help me monitor these blogs for specific topics or ideas that I’m interested in (without me having to constantly check them for updates every few days). Did the whole thing semantically, i.e. using semantic similarity + matching thresholds as opposed to a traditional full-text / keyword-matching approach, which seems to perform better (since you don’t need to use the ‘right’ wording to get good results).
Thanks for checking it out, look forward to discussing in comments!
