Personally I use lightsail on AWS and cloudflare cause there is always an off ramp to try some of the fancy stuff but then you can always go back to just using cheap VMs behind cloudflare. You can also put it all behind a VPC and you can us

I just wrote up a very similar comment. It’s really nice to see that there are other people who understand the limits of LLM in this hype cycle. Like all the people surprised by Deepseek when it has been clear for the last 2 years there is

The argument has never changed the argument has always been the same. LLMs do not think, they do not perform logic they are approximating thought. The reason why CoT works is because of the main feature of LLMs, they are extremely good at p

It was surreal seeing Fox News have polymarket bets being taken on what Trump would say side by side with him speaking. And I don’t even know what to say about the president and First Lady releasing official meme coins…

I love this, the biggest problem I have right now with python scripts is distributing my single file utility scripts (random ops scripts). I wish there was a way to either shebang something like this or build a wheel that has the full venv

It’s not even good at writing unit tests. It’s good at writing bad unit tests but that’s not the same thing.

This might be more useful than the OP. This thing lets you translate HAR to Swagger… My usual process is Dev tools -> Copy as CURL -> delete unnecessary headers -> translates to requests in python (these days I just use ChatGPT) -&

I believe this is just a wrapper around pygwalker, which is a nice project: https://github.com/Kanaries/pygwalker I really like the typescript graphic walker: https://github.com/Kanaries/graphic-wa

Did I miss it or did they say whether o3 is going to be available under ChatGPT Plus or Pro?

It’s a monkey’s paw solution, now you have 15 kinda slow pipelines instead of 3 slow deployment pipelines. And you get to have the fun new problem of deployment planning and synchronizing feature deployments.

It seems to be that it is faster and cheaper with slightly lower than SOTA quality. There’s an emerging subset of AI companies building features on “good enough” lightweight models: https://www.wired.com/story/how-do-yo

I love this, I first learned Java and “Kids Programming Language” (a strange action script-y flash inspired thing) in elementary school and the lessons I learned there stuck with me until today. I would highly recommend parents consider tea

This is really impressive, I would suggest benchmarking it against Vespa as well I have gotten better perf results from Vespa than Lucerne/Solr/ES. I’ll take a try this weekend as well.

Thanks for the link I think this is a really interesting example: > In qSQL this is: aj[`sym`time; t; q], which means perform an asof-join on t, looking up the nearest match from table q based on the sym and time column. > In standard

I 100% agree, I think the functional features that have been added across all the popular languages (map, reduce, fold etc.) has been a positive. Nothing demonstrates it better (imo) than purrr in R: https://github.com/rstud

I’ve tried several times to give J/k/Q/kdb a chance but I haven’t really found a convincing example why this approach is better than say SQL or say numpy/jax etc. The syntax has the same problem as perl in that you have

> sum::{+/x} > count::{#x} These two expressions are not valid in R or Python. They are implicitly declaring a function without declaring the arguments, it is implicitly iterating over the array and returning the result (all feat

So it’s basically a standardized plugin format for LLM apps and thats why it doesn’t support auth. It’s basically a standardized way to wrap you Openapi client with a standard tool format then plug it in to your locally running AI tool of c

Capistrano, Ansible et al. have existed this whole time if you want to do that. The real difference in approaches is between short lived environments that you redeploy from scratch all the time and long lived environments we nurse back to h

On the flip side there are many engineers who are so afraid to build anything that seems even a little bit difficult you end up with a million dependencies for things that could have been 100 lines of code. A common thing to hear in fronten

I’m asking more about what techniques did they use to get the performance improvements in the slides. They are showing a 20-30% improvement over Polars, Clickhouse and Duckdb. But those 3 tools are SOTA in this area and generally rank near

by faizshah 2y ago
It’s not clear to me why this would be faster than polars, duckdb, vaex or clickhouse. They seem to be taking the same approach of multithreading, optimizing the plan, using arrow, optimizing the core functions like group by.

Pandas is a commonly known DSL at this point so lots of data scientists know pandas like the back of their hand and thats why a lot of pandas but for X libraries have become popular. I agree that pandas does not have the best designed api i

How do you crawl or backfill the existing data? Like if you wanted to implement a search engine or recommendation system it’s not clear to me how you retrieve a training set.

In general, you can save your team a lot of ops trouble just by periodically restarting your long running services from scratch instead of trying to keep alive a process or container for a long time. I’m still new to the erlang/elixir

I have seen the opposite happen a lot though, even if a project is successful you will get numerous people coming to you asking “who approved this? Why was I not involved in the decision?” And the ballooning aftereffects are why it takes mo
