pgGraph lets you run graph queries directly in PostgreSQL

A new library called pgGraph lets you run graph queries directly in PostgreSQL instead of spinning up a separate graph database. It's built on top of the existing PostgreSQL ecosystem — no new infrastructure to manage.

At the same time, a small model evaluation tool called smevals is getting attention for letting teams test smaller language models without needing a massive compute budget. The idea is simple: you can compare how different models perform on specific tasks before committing to the bigger, more expensive ones.

Why this matters for us: if you're running a side business or a small team, not needing to pay for a separate graph database or a massive compute budget means fewer monthly bills and less time managing infrastructure instead of doing the work.
