I've had the same thought as probably have many others - what solutions exist in this space?

To put it into words: a layer over an LLM that tracks provenance: the documents it has access to, the facts it has extracted, the mathematical expressions and queries it's run and finally the artifacts and results it's yielded complete with receipts for exactly how it arrived at it's findings and conclusions.

I assume legaltech products have to do it like this. Is the general pattern implemented somewhere on github?

Could you A/B at random, use that to collect data and eventually feed that back in to prefer A or B depending on the shape of the query?

I wonder if there's a more graph oriented score that could work well here - something pagerank ish so that a repo scores better if it has issues reported by users who themselves have a good score. So it's at least a little resilient to crude manipulation attempts

I remember only a few days ago this was a hosted version of https://github.com/maybe-finance/maybe

It looks like they're pivoting into corporate finance tracking which seems like a good move but still a bit jarring as I was curious to give this a go!

Existing customers - what comms have you received?

I don't really want to self-host this even though I might. Before I commit, what are some alternatives? The UI seemed very compelling

Selegiline is also known as Emsam, the patches reportedly Sam Bankman-Fried was on, alongside ADHD meds. I recall reading how this may have been a large driver of his compulsive risk it all decision making that eventually brought it all down.

Try telling all this to someone who is effectively emotionally/physically disabled because their mind and body either enter a rollercoaster or just shutdown in response to anything vaguely reminiscent of something they experienced.

I think these treatments are better understood as methods to encourage one's mind and body to reprocess some experience so that it is "merely" a terrible thing that happened so they can live a stabler, more balanced, more normal life.

There are "better" databases but they're better given some particular definition that may not be relevant to your needs. If SQL/the relational model and ACID semantics is what you need then postgres is simply the best in class. The fact it dates back to the 80s is probably an advantage (requirement?) when it comes to solving a problem really well

My best guess is a lack of willing participants combined with pressure from up top to move money to keep the operation going/meet targets.

We also don't know how much of that 500k is profit - maybe the margins in organised crime aren't what they used to be. Each $3,750 saved is money they can put straight into their pocket as their boss might never find out how many mules they ended up using.

Or maybe the reporting is fishy

Writing blog posts is the lowest barrier of entry there is to contributing to the sum total of knowledge for some particular keywords, problem space. Sometimes even, years of blogging gets edited and expanded upon into an entire book but I suppose no one cares about those either.

The second sigh sounds like it may, in effect, progressively overload your lung capacity. Felt good too
