Weekly Notes and Discoveries | S Anand

browser.new is a good example of a browser agent. It slowly but independently does a good job of achieving the result. Example: What crew is common in Ingrid Bergman - Cary Grant films? #code-agents #prompt-engineering

twinny is an open source VC Code Copilot alternative. #ai-coding-tools #dev #future #github

typesense supports embeddings natively. #embeddings

Binary embeddings are good enough. Cohere releases binary embeddings. #ai-coding-tools #embeddings #gpu

Extract.langchain.com is a poor early interface to featurize unstructured.io

Hume.ai offers voice emotion API and emotion-based conversational responses. An empathic AI. #future #huggingface #voice-cloning

Representational engineering lets you control LLM output based on preference on the fly. #future #llm-ops #markdown #models #prompt-engineering

sqlite-schema-diagram generates schemas for SQLite databases using Graphviz

TechEmpower web server benchmarks place Rust servers on top #hosting #prompt-engineering #server #web-dev

Rust is non-trivial. Inspired by We are under DDoS attack and we do nothing, I "wrote" a small binary that serves a parquet file as JSON. It failed and I couldn't fix it. #github #markdown

spleeter is a better alternative to demucs. Splits audio into #markdown

pyannote-audio does speaker diarization

uvicorn is faster than hypercorn but hypercorn supports HTTP/2 and HTTP/3. FastAPI with uvicorn is reasonably fast.

When I set up a training:
- On inviting for DuckDB workshop on Sun evening, Gramener starts accepting immediately, Straive doesn't.
- Straive has high spread of joining time. When joining Gitlab Pipelines Workshop, Straive starts meeting (e.g. Premlal) many minutes early. Gramener floods in (due to alert). Straive streams in slowly.
- Gitlab Pipelines Workshop acceptances: Gramener 47, Straive 100
