Would you recommend these books?
If there was only one source for a piece of news ever, you might be able to make that argument in good faith, but when there are 20 outlets with competing versions of the same story it doesn't hold.
In `wrapped_sleep` function body, where does the `sleep()` come from? It's still tokio::time::sleep, right? If so, the start time is recorded before the first `.await`.

Regardless, the program you provided _does_ actually run the futures concurrently, because of the `join_all()`. My point above was that in the original blog post, the appendix has a version without `join_all()`, which has no concurrency.
Llama.cpp may have gotten better, but when I first started using them:

* Ollama provides a very convenient way to download and manage models, which llama.cpp didn't at the time (maybe it does now?).

* Last I checked, with llama.cpp server you pick a model on server startup. Ollama instead allows specifying the model in the API request, and it handles switching out which one is loaded into vram automatically.

* The Modelfile abstraction is a more helpful way to keep track of different settings. When I used llama.cpp directly I had to figure out a way to track a bunch of model parameters as bash flags. Modelfiles + being able to specify the model in the request is a great synergy, allowing clients to not have to think about parameters at all, just which Modelfile to use.

I'm leaving off some other reasons why I switched which I know have gotten better (like Ollama having great Docker support, which wasn't always true for llama.cpp), but some of these may also have improved with time. A glance over the docs suggests that you still can't specify a model at runtime in the request, though, which if true is probably the single biggest improvement that Ollama offers. I'm constantly switching between tiny models that fit on my GPU and large models that use RAM, and being able to download a new model with ollama pull and immediately start using it in Open WebUI is a huge plus.
i sadly don't feel this is a mistake, the transparent once are the two that beat the model in one category or more, its feels more like scam than error, if not please fix it
I wish ChatGPT can analyze Google Analytics data in realtime
I am a developer at startup company in Malaysia. Recently I've been tasked to study our website Google Analytics data.

First pain point: I tried the GA dashboard and it was diffucult to navigate and find the data I need!

Second pain point: I'm not familiar with analyzing data, so I turn to ChatGPT

Third pain point: ChatGPT can't access my Google Analytics data, I have to export and upload the data manually every times.

So to bridge the gap, I'm experimenting and building https://rumius.com (in progress), essentially an AI Data Analyst Agent that can access data in realtime. I believe it's something useful to product managers too.

Do you have the same problem? Let's discuss.

No, it also didn't handle circular dependencies between interface blocks. Big pain.
The output of a model can be copyright violation. In fact, even if the model was never trained on copyright content, if I provided copyright text then told the model to regurgitate it verbatim that would be a violation.

That does not make the model copyright violation itself.
GraalVM AOT can utilize profiling data from training runs to give the same speedups. It also does ML driven inference of profiles.
If React is so great how come Amazon isn't using it in their store?

I think last year an Amazon frontend engineer wrote some tweets explaining they tried React and it was too slow. So they keep using Java for SSR and sprinkle vanilla JS. They were still using jQuery until a couple of years ago and probably still are in some parts of their site.
An admitted rapist and alleged human trafficker corrupting millions of mostly young people via social media sounds like an ideal topic to me. I suggest reading what Tate was 'teaching' on his site and podcasts - it ranged from petty Amazon scams and crypto bullshit to sexual extortion and pimping.

> Rather than irrationally panicking, the wise move is to seize the opportunity to observe, collect data, and learn

Unwanted incursions into your military bases should prompt fear. That fear, in turn, should drive a response that includes better deterrence, detection and neutralisation.

> Rather than irrationally panicking, the wise move is to seize the opportunity to observe, collect data, and learn

Unless you does this purely passively, you'll also be giving up information on your detection methods.

Even Github has APIs. They're numbered by date: https://docs.github.com/en/rest/about-the-rest-api/api-versi... I think SemVer would be better but they aren't guaranteeing anything so SemVer adds nothing. The date is not informative.

>Do you think the deployment version is an appropriate format to convey compatibility in a system of that size and complexity? = I do not

OK I wonder how GitHub does self-hosting, migrations, etc. I assume they have bespoke upgrade scripts to migrate, and you might have to run them in a sequence. That doesn't mean SemVer is inappropriate. It just isn't going to help much.

>- Do you think it is deployed via a package manager like NPM or Bundle? = I do not

Although the site might not be deployed this way, libraries that interact with it probably are and they probably use SemVer. The only real argument against that is that you can't tell the API version supported from an unrelated SemVer number.
> All property rights depends on public funding the infrastructure to enforce them

Still true, because people generally depend on the legal system and police departments to enforce physical property rights (both are publicly funded entities).

There must far more to it than that. As soon as sleep is a thing, it can be optimised for different goals. Since animals have widely varying sleep requirements, there's clearly some evolutionary factor that influences sleep length.

That is, though sleep might have physiological requirements, it doesn't mean that the amount of sleep is not influenced by non physiological effects.

I'm constantly amazed by the ability of biologists to be amazed by the reach and ingenuity of evolution.

I have been tired for most of my life and I fall squarely into GenX. I have had a stroke, PTSD, depression, and ADHD. Who wants a job with an unicorn startup when you can have this?! Needless to say, my life has been consumed looking for a solution for this fatigue. My emergency goto used to be coffee (1-2 cups/day) for about 2 weeks followed by a zombie like fatigue for the next 3 to 4. I have tried different interventions both traditional and non traditional to combat the fatigue with some pretty out there modalities. The result was usually no effect with the with an occasional small positive net effect. In the past year, I was rereading some of my medical tests and found I was extremely low in taurine. Yes, most people can naturally synthesize this amino acid, yet it declines with age. In my case, I hypothesize that the internal biological process had never been working any better than sub nominally. As a counter to this, I have been supplementing with taurine for the past 6-8 weeks. The result has been a nominal return of energy. I have been able to switch from a 8 to 10 hour work day, all the while lowering my caffeine intake (coffee -> mud/wtr). I have considered that this might be placebo but it feels different and there is no noticeable fatigue recurrence given I maintain good habits. It might be a possible avenue for suffering people to explore who have exhausted all other avenues.

No, it doesn't share across domains.
I personally think there's probably enough of an overlap with enough customers that it would make sense to offer it as Apple One Premier+ rather than a stand alone thing. I know a lot of people who I suspect would say "OK, another couple of hundred dollars on top of what I already pay Apple, and I have these on demand to tinker with, sure!"

I also know a lot of people who are hobbyists or enjoying tinkering who resent having to pay Adobe to be able to use Creative Suite, so if the price was right (you get tools that Adobe charge $75 a month for PLUS Apple Music, Apple TV+, yadda yadda) then that's a sell in itself.

I feel like if you're a family and you and the kids have iPhones and iPads and macbooks and you're already paying for the Apple One Premier plan then it's a fairly trivial cost to have another $30 or whatever dollars on top so that your kids have access to some really good software to create things with, because you've already spent an enormous amount of money with Apple, and there's an upsell from Garage Band to Logic, an upsell from iMovie to Final Cut, etc. It kind of fits.

Maybe they have a stand alone subscription for them as well - but you get a better price if it's a bolt on to the Apple One subscription.

This is all pure speculation though. The only thing I know if that they offered it like I was proposing, I'd definitely subscribe.
Also, is it standard practice to obfuscate which models you're benchmarking against? They're just labeled Model A-D, with sizes but no additional information.

Show HN: Using VLLMs for RAG – skip the fragile OCR
Hi HN

We wanted to show Colivara! It is a suite of services that allows you to store, search, and retrieve documents based on their visual embeddings and understanding.

ColiVara has state of the art retrieval performance on both *text* and visual documents, offering superior multimodal understanding and control.

It is a api-first implementation of the ColPali paper using ColQwen2 as the vLLM model. It works exactly like RAG from the end-user standpoint - but using vision models instead of chunking and text-processing for documents. No OCR, no text extraction, no broken tables, or missing images. What you see, is what you get.

On evals - it outperformed OCR + BM25 by 33%. It is also much better than captioning + BM25 by a similar amount.

Unlike traditional OCR(caption)/chunk/embed pipelines with Cosine similarity - where there are lots of fragility. ColiVara embeds documents at the page level and uses ColBert-style maxsim calculations. These are computationally demanding, but are much better at retrieval tasks. You can read about our benchmarking here: https://blog.colivara.com/from-cosine-to-dot-benchmarking-si...

Looking forward to hearing your feedback.

Is it intended to be used daily or do you get the “only use very sparingly” advice typical of prescription sleep aids?
I'm assuming greater computing power is a requirement because creating generative feature length movies (which is a few orders of magnitude more complex than creating PNGs) is something only massive corporations can afford the computing power to do at the moment (and the implied bar for excellence something we haven't reached). Certainly computing power and dev resource are more of a bottleneck to creating successful AI movies than not having access to the Disney canon which was the argument the OP made for anything other than OpenAI having unlimited rights over everyones content leading inexorably to a Disney generative AI monopoly.
(another weakness of that is I'm not sure the Disney canon is sufficient training data for Disney to replace their staff with generative movies, never mind necessary for anyone else to ever make a marketable quality movie again)

Given #1, I think the OP is framing the conversation in a far more duplicitous manner by assuming that in a lawsuit against AI which doesn't even involve Disney, the only beneficiary of OpenAI not winning will be Disney. Disney extending copyright laws in past decades has nothing to do with a 10 year old internet company objecting to Open AI stripping all the copyright information off its recent articles before feeding them into its generative model.

> Further - "All property rights depends on public funding the infrastructure to enforce them" Is false. This is only the case for intellectual property rights, where nothing need be removed from one person for the other to be "in violation".

People who don't respect physical property are just as capable of removing it as people who don't respect intellectual property are capable of copying it. In both cases the thing that prevents them doing so is a legal system and taxpayer funded enforcement against people that don't play by the rules.

Padding is better and does solve many things, but it's still in the file. That external header/metadata nio.nim approach allows you to separate concerns like slicing rows and columns (for 2D anyway) in a shell pipeline. This is nice if you want to do relational database like things but with a db that is fully in binary, avoiding ascii -> bin (parse) and even more costly bin -> ascii (print) cycles. The mental model is closer to "text-workflow", though.

To follow up on the general thought, another thing padding can help with that you/the article don't mention might be "many time series in a matrix format". In one index order, you can just add a row, but in the transposed index order, you need to widen a matrix. To avoid a full re-write you can instead just pad with NA. Still O(nObjs) tiny updates to flush to disk which could even be many 4k page writes, but for long time series it can still be more efficient. https://github.com/c-blake/nio/blob/ffb671ce23b1b77899c3bcff... has a `proc upstacks` command to do this and https://github.com/c-blake/nio/tree/main/demo/timeSeries a fully worked example.

Hey,

I'm not a teacher, but has worked as a tutor for several years. Interesting thing you have there.

Just a few thoughts on that:

Classroom assignments are the worst nightmare! If you could solve this, it would be good. But, you have to compete with already marketed solutions. Just take a look on university management software like https://www.cas-software.com/

So, your solution isn't required to do all the things the upper software does, but then you have to answer the question why your solution and not one of the established one's?

Is an integration with already used software possible? Because it's a sort of an act to change a running system.

Did you do a requirement analysis? What features, like ical export, can your solution cover?

There's a lot of pain in one's asstrich, that can be solved with disruptive, untraditional approach like yours. But one needs to know what and who's pains are relieved. How they're relieved. And what else can be done.

Just my 2 cents..

Also, I don't think it's easy like this. Teachers need's need more attention :) also, just click & assign doesn't solve the whole problem with assignments. A good teacher take care of the pupils and know what each of them are capable of. It's also the duty of a teacher to pull the pupils, not to push them.

Good luck, my friend! Keep on coding!
Just a note

> exposition is not clear (we have rewritten the paper a few times - we rewrite it based on comments from venue i to submit to venue i+1 - its a wild goose chase)

Does not mean that the paper is invalid, but maybe the storyline is difficult to follow, the results not easy to interpret, or overall badly written or missing justifications.
Even if you take into account the reviews to rewrite it, it doesn't mean the paper is clear and easy to understand.

As you noted, researchers need to read material outside of their confort zone, and the publications have shifted in focus. Before you could expect a reader to be familiar to the topic, now you need to educate him as clearly as possible.

I picked a random text inside the paper
> The workings of the technique itself are presented at a high-level in Figure 2.

Annoying to read.

> Instead of learning the training distribution directly, which might be expensive because of the dimensionality of the data, we first project the data down to one dimension.

Why is that good enough? Justification missing

> This is done just once, and is shown in the left panel in Figure 2. Since we are solving for classification, we pick this dimension to be a numeric indicator of how close an instance is to a class boundary.

Why is it a good indicator, justification

> As a convenient proxy, we train a separate highly accurate probabilistic

Ok, references on previous research that show it can work?

So in essence, I don't say you need to explain everything, but the text could be more clear on the choices and why they make sense.

My gut feeling is that you know and understand what you are doing, but you miss too many justifications that proves your work valuable.

I didn't read the whole thing, so maybe I'm missing the picture, but from random sampling on the text I expect the rest to follow the same.

While I read the introduction, I don't want to read 'we did that and that and that'. But 'there was this issue, we solve it in this way because this reason '

And following issues->solution->why should give me enough understanding of what you are trying to achieve.

Follow-up sections should refine the solutions
