I tend to agree with this sentiment. Many junior devs and/or those in college want to contribute. Then they feel entitled to merge a PR that they worked hard on often without guidance. I'm all for working with people but projects have standards and not all ideas make sense. In many cases, especially with commercial open source, the project is the base of a companies identity. So it's not just for drive-by ideas to... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

Bootstrapping only works if you have the runway to do it and you don't feel the need to grow fast. With NeuML (https://neuml.com), I've went the bootstrapping route. I've been able to build a fairly successful open source project (txtai 6K stars https://github.com/neuml/txtai) and a revenue positive company. It's a "live within your means" strategy. VC funding can have... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

I agree that in many cases people are puffing their feathers to try to be something they're not (at least not yet). Some believe in the fake it until you make it mentality. With NeuML (https://neuml.com), the website is a simple HTML page. On social media, I'm honest about what NeuML is, that I'm in my 40s with a family and not striving to be the next Steve Jobs. I've been able to build a fairly successful open... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

I'll add txtai (https://github.com/neuml/txtai) to the list. There is still plenty of room for innovation in this space. Just need to focus on the right projects that are innovating and not the ones (re)working on problems solved in 2020/2021. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

Nice project! I've long used Tika for document parsing given it's maturity and wide number of formats supported. The XHTML output helps with chunking documents for RAG. Here's a couple examples: - https://neuml.hashnode.dev/build-rag-pipelines-with-txtai - https://neuml.hashnode.dev/extract-text-from-documents Disclaimer: I'm the primary author of txtai ( - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

We will use the OpenAI embeddings API to convert the content of the blog posts into vector embeddings. You will need to sign up for an API key on the OpenAI website to use the API. You will need to provide your credit card information as there is a cost associated with using the API. You can review the pricing on the OpenAI website. There are alternatives to generate embeddings. Hugging Face provides... - Source: dev.to / 4 days ago

HuggingFaceEmbeddings is a function that we use for converting our documents to vector which is called embedding, you can use any embedding model from huggingface, it will load the model on your local computer and create embeddings(you can use external api/service to create embeddings), then we just pass this to context and create index and store them into folder so we can reuse them and don't need to recalculate it. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

The only requirement for this tutorial is to have an Hugging Face account. In order to get it:. - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

Finally, you'll need to download a compatible language model and copy it to the ~/llama.cpp/models directory. Head over to Hugging Face and search for a GGUF-formatted model that fits within your device's available RAM. I'd recommend starting with TinyLlama-1.1B. - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago
