The state of academia.

And for a brief moment, they stopped arguing about model reasoning and existential risk and just marveled over reusable rockets 😌

After watching Camilla for the last few months, I’m convinced that LLMs just need to learn to put things in their mouth. Apparently, oral exploration is the key to self improvement and general intelligence.

The deep dives are done, and the results are in. How did the table formats compare concerning their change query support? I've updated the change query blog post with a summary of my findings. https://t.co/ldzMGKFwjo

Fizzbee, the formal verification project I've been using recently, now has simulation mode! I can now run it over much larger state spaces. I ran it on my Apache Iceberg spec and found one bug in the spec. I ran it on my Apache Paimon spec and found 6 spec bugs over 2 days! So

Database deployment models are shifting at a nutso pace. Was so interesting to hear how companies are adapting to customer preferences that shift faster than Gen Z deciding between Sabrina Carpenter and Olivia Rodrigo…

And the dirty secret is how much $$$ folks are spending on annotations of dubious quality.

Pretraining isn’t dead. We are just spending even more $$$ on post-training.

As more teams build genAI and other data intensive applications, they will need to collect more data. As they collect more data, maintaining quality will become increasingly challenging. But it doesn't need to. Datafold can help companies adapt.

if you use text embeddings, feel free to try cde-small-v1 on HuggingFace: https://t.co/t7wRKFh1jW as noted, it's slightly more involved to use, since there's an extra step of embedding context tokens beforehand but the model works really, really well https://t.co/VEQg6rJLZC

Finally, if you read our paper, let me know what you think 😎 (planning on making an update next week with a smaller figure and a few more details...) https://t.co/ehDgC9KcAU

Remember when companies used to build before they launched? ::sighs::

For years, data teams have been opining about ad hoc requests from colleagues for things they don’t really need…while making so many ad hoc requests for startups/from vendors for things they don’t really need

Damn. @allen_ai is crushing it. I have no affiliation or incentive to compliment them; I’m just genuinely floored.

You probably should read this but… TLDR: Your users will never discover the power of your tool if it’s not simple to use and understand
