A billion dollars worth of gold is about 15,000 kg. Though I wonder if the price would collapse as soon as it became clear large amounts of gold can be mined from space.

I think few people would disagree with the statement, but the real questions are how many grams of veggies per day? How many different veggie types per week? How do I know if it's enough to actually reduce my risk? etc.

Using RAG feels like asking an acquaintance to write a book report by giving them semi-randomly cut out paragraphs from the book. Finetuning seems to be a solution, but there is still the issue of the LLM not really "learning" fac

I installed a reverse osmosis water filter, switched to cast iron or stainless steel cookware, and use glass for food storage as much as I can. I wish there was an easy test for my level of exposure but I'm definitely aware.

This is a working memory exercise called "n-back". For true torture try "dual n-back" where you also have to match a tone, shape or color. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/N-back

What's the best way to use an LLM with a large codebase that isn't RAG? Ideally we could have the full source in the context or already trained into the model... I was thinking I could set something to fine tune a model overnight
