python is far too silly to be used in production

this is my new hill that I'm dying on

“How are you?”
“I’m trying”

~ South African proverb

My mangos have an account everyone

Here’s my account on Flashes, a photo sharing app. All my followers can automatically find me as soon as they log in!

This is what we mean when we say Bluesky is open: your identity and followers belong to you. It took 30s to sign up for this new, independent app, and everything is there.

So @ledell.bsky.social & @m-fab.bsky.social and I (and some other fabulous ladies who may or may not be on bsky) have been discussing social media burnout, how we have lost the will to engage on many platforms, how much harder it feels to be candid these days, and the genuine need to express.

BERT models are so good for so many reasons:

+ embeddings!
+ they are small and much easier to serve!
+ out of the box they perform well on specialized tasks that LLMS have to be prompted with (summarization and classification in particular)

I love this description of them here as a Honda Civic.

LOL I am in 30 min of trying to create a simple uv env + jupyter notebook to try out this model and failing, also failing using colab because it doesn't have the latest version of transformers from git

Unfortunately this is the default ML experience.

Casual Thursday in December 2024 arbitrarily watching 3blu1brown video on topology with my kittens, my partner and neighbours #community

I keep receiving these emails from various people that are so flowery that they're clearly chatgpt generated - it's so awful. They come across as super passive aggressive

Can we come up with a better word in the agile process for "sprint"?

Really struggling to re-populate my follows from twitter. Any advice?

이거 너무 난데?
