🚀 We just shipped a cleaner, faster way to group news headlines at scale.

Our service pulls ~600 headlines per run (from 5 sources) and needs to group “same story” headlines together. Doing this with a reasoning model sounded nice, but it gets costly and slow when you run it constantly.

So we switched to vector similarity:

• Generate embeddings for each headline (765-d vectors)
• Store them in Supabase (pgvector)
• Use cosine similarity to find and group related titles

Result: faster, cheaper, and way more consistent. We’re currently hitting ~90% correct grouping, and we’ll push it further with hybrid matching (semantic + keyword + category checks).

Upgrades are supposed to be boring. Ours turned into a full-on debugging marathon. 😅

We upgraded a production app to Expo SDK 54 and React Native 0.81 and the UI regressed in multiple places:

• Text clipping / unexpected wrapping
• Bottom tabs misbehaving on gesture navigation
• Safe-area overlap with sticky buttons
• Android 12+ splash and launcher asset issues

And while we were fixing that, Play Store policies added more pressure:

• Target SDK 35 updates
• 16 KB page size compatibility readiness
• Toolchain upgrades (Gradle + NDK) to keep builds and Play Console happy

We wrote a practical breakdown of what broke, why it broke, and the fixes that made everything stable again.

🚀 Quick AWS DevOps checklist for Lambda + ECR

If you (or a teammate) are pushing container images to ECR and deploying them on AWS Lambda, IAM setup is one of those steps that can quietly block everything.

We published a short guide that shows a simple console-only setup:

• Create an IAM user
• Attach the right policies for ECR + Lambda
• Create a Lambda ex*****on role for CloudWatch logs
• Understand who needs what permissions (user vs Lambda role)

🎶 Working with audio in Flutter and want real-time effects like echo?

Nazmul from our team just published a practical guide on using the 𝚏𝚕𝚞𝚝𝚝𝚎𝚛_𝚜𝚘𝚕𝚘𝚞𝚍 package to add echo to an audio file. The article covers:

• How to set up SoLoud and load your recording

• How to play or pause using a handle

• How to turn on the echo filter and tweak the wet value live

If you are building a karaoke app, music tool, or any audio-focused feature, this should give you a concrete example you can adapt.

🎶 Flutter devs, this one’s for you.

In one of our projects at ELO we needed real time audio effects (echo, reverb) for a karaoke app. Our first approach with the audioplayers package started to show its limits pretty fast.

Nazmul wrote a step-by-step breakdown of how we moved to SoLoud and flutter_soloud, with code snippets and lessons learned.

If you are building any kind of music or audio app, this can give you a head start.
