6/ And there was another subtle issue after this:
Once you have both signals, applying the same filtering rules to both can actually break the whole idea.
I'll write about that next.
5/ Vector search helps when the wording changes but the meaning stays similar.
Lexical search helps when the exact wording is part of the meaning.
Technical documentation has a lot of the second kind.
4/ It made me think about hybrid retrieval a bit differently.
Vector search and lexical search aren't really competing here.
They're rescuing different types of queries.
2/ Exact identifiers were the easiest place to see it.
Part numbers, error codes, model numbers, acronyms, etc.
Sometimes the “less semantically similar” chunk was the useful one because it contained the exact identifier.
1/ One thing we ran into while working on RAG for technical docs:
Vector search can find something that's semantically very close to the question...
and still miss the result you actually wanted near the top.
@JazzCash I reported via email that I can receive OTP but can’t input it because the app’s keyboard won’t open.
Support asked for my device info, I provided it — but their reply completely ignored my actual issue.
This is basic app functionality. Please fix it urgently.

@IKLover1992 Shehbaz Shareef was proud Chief Minister of Punjab, So why Nawaz shareef hesitated to nominate him as PM candidate.
i'm completely disagree about this news.
@IKLover1992@timesofindia I can't find any reality in this news , If it's real we have many intelligence agencies, Who can take step against Nawaz Sharif
There will come a time when it isn't 'They're spying on me through my phone' anymore. Eventually, it will be 'My phone is spying on me'
