I've written before about the risks of using dplyr without knowing base R. I now feel I can be more specific:

• dplyr::case_when() is a code smell.

The SalesForce CodeGen models are a family of large language models trained on a large amount of natural language data and then fine-tuned on specialized datasets of code. Models of size 350M, 2B, 6B, and 16B parameters are provided in three flavors:

• nl, the base model trained on The Pile, a large natural language dataset compiled by EleutherAI
• multi, which is fine-tuned from the nl model on a dataset of code in multiple languages, scraped from GitHub, and
• mono, which is fine-tuned from the multi model on Python code only.

There isn't a correct way to take notes, but I have found that having a system, any system, is extremely beneficial when you are working on large projects. Conventions allow you to stop thinking about the style of your notes and focus on quality and content. This isn't a list of rules that must be followed at all times, it's a recurring process that leads to a more useful collection of notes over time.

0. Keep all your structured notes in a single root folder and make sure it's safely backed up. I keep my notes in iCloud.
1. Minimize directory depth. For example, you may have a music folder, but you should not have ANY folders within it, if possible. If you start accumulating a lot of guitar specific notes, you should make a new folder at the root directory named guitar.

GitLab recently decided to silently delete any repositories that hadn't been accessed in the last year. The announcement didn't go over well and they soon caved to public pressure and decided to instead back up inactive repos to object storage instead of unilaterally deleting them. I'm glad they reconsidered, but the experience left me with a bad taste in my mouth, so I decided to look into (relatively) low

We have deployed a small server for Hacker News users to test out Anysphere. The deployment is free, open to everyone, and will be up for at least a month. If you are interested in using the real Anysphere, apply here.

The Anysphere client is fully open source here: anysphere/client.

First download Anysphere: anysphere.co/download.
