More than reading popular books on Design Patterns, two things that helped me write and structure a large codebase better were

reading a lot of good open source codebases (with similar stack)coding and collaborating a lot on the same codebase

I understand the importance of reading general-purpose design patterns, but they might not suit your... See more

LLMs augment software products in two fundamental ways – they enable:

i) better understanding and processing of unstructured data;

ii) more scalable creation of content and work product.

LNO: Framework to prioritize time. There are leverage, neutral, and overhead tasks, where you get 10x, 1x or < 1x output. You should focus your best and the most hours on leverage tasks. Delegate or strike N and O tasks. The same activity can be all three depending on the context and how you execute it. Track L, N, O tasks.

Data Integration. Integration is needed when your organization collects large amounts of data in various systems such as databases, CRM systems, application servers, and so on. Accessing and analyzing data that is spread across multiple systems can be a challenge. To address this challenge, data integration can be used to create a unified view of... See more

DeepSeek Coder comprises a series of code language models trained from scratch on both 87% code and 13% natural language in English and Chinese, with each model pre-trained on 2T tokens. We provide various sizes of the code model, ranging from 1B to 33B versions. Each model is pre-trained on repo-level code corpus by employing a window size of 16K... See more

• Terraform Providers: Terraform is primarily used for defining the infrastructure resources. Its strength lies in its vast collection of providers that offer standardized ways to interact with various cloud services (AWS, Azure, GCP, etc.) and on-premises infrastructure. These providers are essentially plugins that understand the specific APIs and

We can't share the exact formula for our search ranking, but here are the few parameters we consider:

• Exact match (rank #1)


• Frequency of matching lexemes using ts_rank


• Similarity score using similarity


• Type of record


• Popularity of the search result


• Similarity between the result’s alias and query


• Inverse of the result’s string length

core components of Deep RL that enabled success like AlphaGo: self-play and look-ahead planning.

Self-play is the idea that an agent can improve its gameplay by playing against slightly different versions of itself because it’ll progressively encounter more challenging situations. In the space of LLMs, it is almost certain that the largest portion... See more

WebDataset

WebDataset is a library for writing I/O pipelines for large datasets. Its sequential I/O and sharding features make it especially useful for streaming large-scale datasets to a DataLoader.

The WebDataset format

A WebDataset file is a TAR archive containing a series of data files. All successive data files with the same prefix are... See more
