Loose Coupling and High Cohesion: How To Avoid Tight Coupling and Low Cohesion?

Cohesion is a measure of the number of relationships that parts of a component have with each other.

High cohesion means that : All of the parts that are needed to deliver the component's functionality are included in the component.

Coupling is a measure of the number of... See more

the science problem. We’ve all spent the last year talking about ‘error rates’ or ‘hallucinations’ (indeed, I also wrote about them here). The breakthrough of LLMs is to create a statistical model that can be built by machine at huge scale, instead of a deterministic model that (today) must be built by hand and doesn’t scale. This is why they work,... See more

We’ve spent a lot of time thinking about tables. Tables—like plots—are crucial as a last step toward presenting information. There is surprising sophistication and nuance in designing effective tables. Over the past 5,000 years, they’ve evolved from... See more

There is often a notable gap between state of the art research and what practitioners can reasonably use. However, I'm glad to say that attention sinks can be added to any pretrained LLM at near to no additional effort.

I have released the attention_sinks Python module, which acts as a drop-in replacement for the transformers API. This Python module... See more

1. REST (Representational State Transfer) is the most used style that uses standard methods and HTTP protocols. It's based on principles like statelessness, client-server architecture, and cacheability. It's often used between front-end clients and back-end services.


2. GraphQL is a query language for APIs. Unlike REST, which exposes a fixed set of

orch

orch is a library for building language model powered applications and agents for the Rust programming language. It was primarily built for usage in magic-cli, but can be used in other contexts as well.

Note

If the project gains traction, this can be compiled as an addon to other languages such as Python or a standalone WebAssembly module.

Increasing perversion of certain business models that are liable to be gamed or constrained by AI: We’re shifting from a world where data analysis required long cycles (analysts need lots of time to run queries, analyze, and then present findings in a way that people understand) to a new world of real-time optimization and insights (AI will mine...

But now we are only logging that error message. It would be better to define a custom Exception that we can then handle in our API in order to return a specific error code to the user:

import pandas as pd

import logging

class DataLoadError(Exception):

"""Exception raised when the data cannot be loaded."""

def __init__(self, message="Data could not be... See more
