TypeChat

TypeChat is a library that makes it easy to build natural language interfaces using types.

Building natural language interfaces has traditionally been difficult. These apps often relied on complex decision trees to determine intent and collect the required inputs to take action. Large language models (LLMs) have made this easier by enabling... See more

Arginine can increase the levels of growth hormone under low glucose levels. It also increases the dilation of blood vessels and with that blood flow. L-Citrulline is a precourser of arginine and has a larger effect on arginine levels.

A core research interest of mine is imagining new kinds of interfaces to text documents that are made possible by modern AI and software. I think an interesting place to look for such ideas may be interface designs for reading and writing legal documents .

Legal document-wrangling tools have a handful of properties that make it fertile ground for... See more

Don't just randomly draw boxes and arrows. There are some important, well-defined diagrams that are extremely useful for software dev:

→ Sequence diagrams

→ Architecture diagrams

→ Entity-relationship diagrams

→ State machine diagrams

→ Component diagrams (dependencies)

Retrieval

Ranking all of the billions of pieces of content uploaded to Instagram for every single user is obviously not feasible.

Therefore, the candidate generation stage uses a set of heuristics and ML models to narrow down the potential items to thousands of photos/videos.

In terms of heuristics, Instagram uses things like

• Accounts you follow

Serverless Postgres (experimental)

Serverless Postgres using Oriole, Fly Machines, and Tigris for S3 Storage.

Overview

This is a MVP for Serverless Postgres.

1/ It uses Fly.io, which can automatically pause your database after all connections are released (and start it again when new connections join).

2/ It uses Oriole, a Postgres extension with expe... See more

tests include:

• Unit tests for individual components and isolated functions.


• Integration tests for interactions between multiple components.


• End-to-end tests that assess the entire system’s functionality from a user’s perspective

Tests should be simple. It should be easy to identify what went wrong when reading a failing test.

EntityAnonymization-3B-V0.9

EntityAnonymization identifies entities in texts and replaces them with randomised versions.

In a first pass, the entities are recognised and a dictionary with similar but randomised variants is created.

In a second run, the original text and the dictionary are provided and the paraphrased variant is generated.

The two-step... See more
