Stop optimizing your retrieval. Fix your chunking first.
It's not your embedding model, prompt engineering, or vector database. It's your chunking strategy creating invisible walls between your users and the information they need.
𝗖𝗵𝘂𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 is the pre-processing step of splitting texts into smaller pieces of text, or "chunks". Each chunk becomes the unit of information that gets vectorized and stored in your vector database.
Here are 6 essential chunking techniques you need to know:
→ 𝗙𝗶𝘅𝗲𝗱-𝗦𝗶𝘇𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝘂𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 https://t.co/8ASea5S9iZ
→ 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝘂𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 https://t.co/nlVaq7S43r
→ 𝗗𝗼𝗰𝘂𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁-𝗕𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗖𝗵𝘂𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 https://t.co/F38bYXvdOL
→ 𝗦𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗖𝗵𝘂𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 https://t.co/P5Rljuoe4T
→ 𝗟𝗟𝗠-𝗕𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗖𝗵𝘂𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 https://t.co/PWLZQxIlBD
→ 𝗟𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝘂𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 https://t.co/0jfAeyw4tC
💡 𝗣𝗿𝗼 𝘁𝗶𝗽s:
• There's no one-size-fits-all chunking strategy.
• Your choice affects both information retrieval and the amount of contextual information provided to your RAG system.
• Start simple with fixed-size chunking, then experiment based on your specific use case.
→ Are you dealing with technical documentation? Try document-based.
→ Working with conversational data? Semantic chunking might be your best bet.

Stop repeating base queries for stats!
Use the new clone() method to cleanly duplicate query builders.
Here’s how I used it in an OrderAnalytics class to get totals, revenue, and paginated data, all from one base query.
🍃 If you are learning @tailwindcss I built a one page site using plain CSS, JS & Tailwind that might come in handy:
1. It's responsive.
2. Has dark mode.
3. Built with Just-In-Time mode.
4. Has a minimal styleguide.

🚀 PHP 8.5 brings the pipe operator `|>` and it feels like Laravel’s Pipeline, but native.
Same clean flow.
No containers. No boilerplate.
Just functions. 🔥
Will it replace Laravel Pipelines in the future? 🤔
