• Writing a Good Design Document

• Show HN: Improving RAG with Chess Elo Scores? (YC W25)

  - https://hackmd.io/@-Gjw1zWMSH6lMPRlziQFEw/B15B4Rsleg tldr; wikipedia iterates on , but that can go to zero or infinity. Iterating on stays between -4 and 4 in all of our observed pairwise matrices, so it's very well-bounded. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Show HN: Improving RAG with Chess Elo Scores? (YC W25)

  We tried a bradley-terry loss function, as calculated with https://hackmd.io/@-Gjw1zWMSH6lMPRlziQFEw/SJ8sRl1Zge We found that MSE after elo-adjustment worked equally well. And, MSE lets you shuffle (q, d) across the dataset which has good statistical properties (Versus contrastive, which makes you sample the same query many times within a single minibatch) In this case "InfoNCE" isn't applicable because the... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• # [derive(Clone)] Is Broken

  It's got a subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/rustjerk/ There's an "internal" community document entitled "The Core Team Is Toxic": https://hackmd.io/@XAMPPRocky/r1HT-Z6_t There's an entry on the tropes page about it: https://enet4.github.io/rust-tropes/rewrite-in-rust/ You're trying to make the case that this is a fever dream hallucinated by me in isolation?

• MinIO Removes Web UI Features from Community Version, Pushes Users to Paid Plans

  The most established option is Ceph, which has a (optional) web ui too. Before investigating it for eventual production use, I heard quite a bit about how complicated it was to use, but for my use case (storage for enterprise and academic k8s clusters) it's actually been quite simple to deploy and use. Cephadm (one of many ceph management tools) can handle nearly all our bootstrapping and management needs. Little... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• If it is worth keeping, save it in Markdown

  HackMD already does this. It has a dual-pane view for raw markdown and formatted output, supports WYSIWYG editing, and allows real-time collaboration. Surprised no one mentioned it. - [HackMD: Your Collaborative Markdown Workspace for Knowledge Sharing](https://hackmd.io/). - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Tor: From the Dark Web to the Future of Privacy

  It seems, at the beginning of the 90s there were a lot of expectations in regard to DC-nets, considered to be a way better alternative to remailers of the time [1]. At least that's my impression after reading Tim May's FAQ (The Cyphernomicon) [2]. Any progress on this front?

• A list of SaaS, PaaS and IaaS offerings that have free tiers of interest to devops and infradev

  Hackmd.io - Real time collaboration & writing tool for markdown format docs/files. Like Google but for markdown files. Free unlimited number of "notes", but the number of collaborators (invitee) for private notes & template will be limited. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Markdown as Fast as Possible

  Alternatively, you can use an online markdown editor like StackEdit or HackMD. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Is there a service for uploading Markdown files that render beautifully?

  I am really not sure. Maybe you can ask support? There is also https://telegra.ph and https://hackmd.io/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Vyper compiler $200k security audit competition

  This is the first time in this space that a compiler is conducting a competitive audit contest! I strongly recommend reading my article as a preparation for the upcoming Vyper compiler audit contest: https://hackmd.io/@pcaversaccio/how-vyper-compiles-into-bytecode. It will give you insights deep down the rabbit hole. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• A currently maintained fork of SSHFS

  I think SFTP is a good but underrated protocol, when mirroring a file tree bidirectionally makes more sense than cloning one to another. Having forked and studied from SSHFS' code, I am currently maintaining a list of resources and some personal thoughts on https://hackmd.io/@q/sftp-over-ws. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Firefox Finally Outperforming Google Chrome in SunSpider

  Thanks for the mention! Capyloon (https://capyloon.org) had a grant from Protocol Labs (the IPFS stewards) in 2022 so we focused quite a bit on that indeed. We learned a lot - especially about the maturity and usability of the IPFS stack. I'm still very bullish on the dWeb pieces: content based addressing, UCANs (https://ucan.xyz/) for distributed auth, new web app models (https://hackmd.io/@robin-berjon/tiles) to... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Andrew McCalip demonstrates synthesis of LK99

  It's kinda false: https://hackmd.io/@lifthrasiir/lk-99-prehistory people were working on it since soviet times, in academia. And those people influenced other people. Also in academia. It's a slow moving process, but it works. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Semiconducting Transport in LK99

  Apparently [1] the group wanted it to be safe and pushed for more verification internally, but Kwon (the third author of the first arXiv submission) posted his own draft without others' consent. So it's in my opinion useless to discuss whether the submission itself was sincere or not---it was never their intention.
