Musings 4
The summer is finally coming to its end. The days are getting a little less warmer now. To be honest, I despise the heat.

What is einsum anyway?

Matrix operations are easier through einsum but the syntax is exhausting.. I have tried to compile most of the operations..

This talk is incredible. In 30 minutes, a binary search implementation is sped up by 25x using profiling tools, including L1 cache and pipeline stall analysis. While the tools are Apple-specific, the concepts are general and apply everywhere.

NEW POST

Even an experienced developer may be reluctant to build a simple tool due to the amount of plumbing required. Unmesh Joshi narrates his experience iterating with an LLM to handle the boilerplate of an extension to PlantUML.

This is so incredibly cool. Embeddings are lingua franca for so many retrieval/LLM/recommendations use-cases and I really enjoyed working with embeddings in Redis via the search module, can’t wait to try this.
Vector Sets are finally part of Redis! The full story here in my blog: antirez.com/news/149

Instead of following the people in the starter pack — follow the starter packs itself. Why didn’t anyone thought of this?

I'll get straight to the point.

We trained 2 new models. Like BERT, but modern. ModernBERT.

Not some hypey GenAI thing, but a proper workhorse model, for retrieval, classification, etc. Real practical stuff.

It's much faster, more accurate, longer context, and more useful. 🧵

this is 🤌🏼
I am back to writing math-heavy yet intuitive blog posts. Almost two years ago, I wrote the diffusion tutorials with a similar intention. This time, I am targeting the fundamental concepts of LLMs and MLLMs. And here is the first post in that direction: Rotary Position Encodings. Enjoy reading! 🍻

Why does Apple Podcast app on iOS suck so much. It makes my iPhone extremely hot and unusable.

I just want to play a podcast. Does anyone at Apple use this app or what?

🚨 New awesome repo announcement!

Since I'm always on the lookout for great visionOS resources, and my awesome-visionOS repo had some success, I decided to create a new one for the recently released Meta Spatial SDK.

Find the repo here 👇

This is amazing. Always wanted to dig deeper into production side of LLMs.
🤔 Do you ever wonder how companies are putting LLMs and GenAI apps into production? What stacks do they use? What architecture did they go with?

I put together a database of known public technical writeups with summaries of the key technical features.

I was working with flutter and it was building fine and all of a sudden gradle stopped building.

Wonder why I hate working with android.
