We all know the grind of working with data, even with AI tools: every experiment starts with re-explaining everything, every iteration needs you to prompt, wait, review, correct, and repeat. And the moment you close the session, everything learned is gone. It makes us the bottleneck, and this hinders human-AI collaboration... So I built 𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐒𝐜𝐢, an autonomous agent purpose-built for DS/ML, and tested it on Kaggle. I enrolled in a recent competition, ran the agent with no hints, no guidanc... Read more ›

Series — Fine-Tuning, Smallest to Largest: LoRA (1.5B) ← you are here In I fully fine-tuned a 270M model — updating every weight. That's fine for a tiny model. It gets painful as models grow, because full fine-tuning needs gradients and optimizer state for every parameter (~4× the model size in memory). So: what do you do when the model is too big to comfortably fine-tune all of? The idea behind LoRA LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) rests on one observation: the change fine-tuning makes to a weight...

One of the default "auto modes" for writers is the RSS feed. They want to share their writing somehow. Plenty of writers don't own a domain name, but somewhere on their site sits a clunky RSS file in XML format. A horrible-looking file. If you have never seen one and feel like hating yourself, open any rss.xml from a random website or... Read more ›

Neurosymbolic semantics is fragmented: classical, fuzzy, probabilistic and neural systems each define truth by their own inductive rules. NeSyCat, extending ULLER, subsumes them under a single inductive definition of truth, parametric in a strong monad and an aggregation structure on truth-values. NeSyCat has so far lacked an account of predicates and functions learned by neural networks. We provide NeSyCat Torch as the missing link and interpre... Read more ›

I think Gemini is a sterile protocol, that from the outside looks great, in the same way minimalism does... but doesn't change the way I use the web. I also think it was a flash in the pan source of entertainment for personal web folks during COVID 19. I haven't used Gemini since late 2022... I think. Read more ›

Apex 1.1.0 adds support for Pandoc-style grid tables — those ASCII-art tables built with +, -, =, and | instead of the usual pipe-table separators. If you have ever copied a grid table out of a Pandoc doc or academic paper and wished your Markdown processor would just deal with it, this one is for you. First, thanks to Andreas Kraft for some poi... Read more ›

OK maybe it's probably just me but, I often want to "Like" other peoples blog posts after I read them and find something I enjoyed. For me, it is a simple way of saying: "hey I read this" and also "hey I like your post"! In the indieweb/smol-web this … Read more ›
