There are also a lot of great products that don’t communicate what they do well — there’s some intersection between marketing and good UX there. Making something “people want” inherently has “marketing” implied - people don’t want something

I love how well this framework maps to academia — PhDs are implementors, Post-docs are Problem-solvers, and Professors are Problem-finders.

aside from making fun of Chroma, this seems to 100% work though? What would be the pros/cons of actually using this instead?

Looks like the Barn up in Farmington's up to bad policing again. It's time we shut down the Strike Team.

We just say our projects are "enhanced/powered/enabled by AI" and no one bats an eye. It's for "regular people" though and using that term gives it shimmers of magic in their eyes "wow it's AI...

I thought they would call out off-axis spinners... so many can be found on products by large companies like Microsoft. Ugh

I've been able to use phind + Co-pilot to learn python, build and deploy a FastAPI service on the OpenAPI spec, without really knowing any of those things. Just ask GPT-4 how FastAPI works, how OpenAPI works, and ask it to format and w

Could someone give a breakdown on why Dolly 2 is so much more difficult to run than llama.cpp?

Apparently npm runs couchdb under the hood. There’s your answer to the “does it scale” question

I started picking up CouchDB and PouchDB and the DX is fantastic. Always wondered why there’s never been any hype or more examples around this stack?

unfortunately elicit doesn't extract "meaning" from papers and let you "ask" it (yet)

Whoa. I asked it how to use Facebook's new Segment Anything model on a specific use case in microbiology and it spat out all the code I needed. What in the world?! This is dark magic.

if we use Ferret for prototyping and eventually land on a schema, would it be possible to convert the FerretDB rows into more structured postgres? Would be so cool if it could just analyze and create a schema for you, you double check it, a

Kind of cool that MangoDB started out as a joke and ended up as a real, solid project

wow so cool! Do you guys have plans to open source some of this in the future?

Interesting to see that it's trained on data completely generated by Databricks employees. I wonder how "biased" that makes the data, and how much they spent in terms of lost man hours?

right, this book is really old now.... this book came out in 2018, so shouldn't there be a 2018 tag?

wish they could have an API soon so you could create new notes / posts and get a list of them

Is this supposed to be a smaller Sveltekit alternative? I'm confused as to what it adds to the ecosystem

ha, I thought I was just bad at "computer stuff" for not figuring out how to implement SWR correctly on Vercel...

Yes, that's why it's "overhead" because it's just the cost to play the game. But after overhead, even R01 grants which sound "massive" will just end up paying for a couple of PhDs and postdocs over four ye

In the future there'll probably be two kinds of people: the ones wielding Magic (aka LLMs)... and the ones trying to hold on to a world before Magic arrived, slowly getting eaten up by the Magic.
