In USA insurance companies do have standard code and cost for procedure. Then I found out my son dentist was charging the insurance for « sealant » on all adult teeth every 6 month when my son in fact did not have adult teeth yet. I tried reporting as fraud to to the insurance company and they did not care at all and did nothing.

I think it’s about sample efficiency. You could finetune your own jev using Lora with very little data

Would converting those quant to MLX preserve the accuracy/size ? Or this only work with GGUF?

this is CUDA backend to MLX not MLX backend for CUDA!

Can you give more detail on what you mean by it can be a valuable experience with the right people around to help.

My son (7 years old) is gifted in Math and as a parent I find it extremely hard to decide how much I should push him (register him to math competition, weekend math club ...) and how much I should just let him get 100% on exam and not accelerate the learning.

is it only me or this completely miss all the recent research on causal inference using causal graphical model ?

Des os is the best graphic calculator ever built. And its amazing it has un directly in your browser or without internet on your phone.

Just wish it was open source :-)

Anyone know of an open source library like 3blue1brown Manim library that can work run client side in the web browser like Desmos ?

how does this compare to ESP32-S3-BOX-3B ?

Thanks a lot for writing that. I agree 100% with you.

But I always wondered how polymath like Leonard davinci and Isaac newton that are excellent in many area are possible.

Is MIT class also taught by outsourced instructor instead of MIT instructor?

Redis Sentinel provides high availability and monitoring for Redis, but it does not guarantee strong consistency.

Linearizability requires that once a write is acknowledged, all subsequent reads should reflect that write.

if min-replicas-to-write is set to the number of Redis replica then if a single node goes down you won't be able to do any write (take lock or release lock).

if min-replicas-to-write is set to any number smaller than the total number or Redis replica some replica could still be lagging because of Asynchronous replication.

Also when a replica acknowledges a write in Redis, it means that the write has been received and logged by the replica, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that the write has been fully processed and applied to the data set.

This mean reading from replica that acknowledges a write from master might still return the Old value for the Key.

Paxos and Raft are consensus algorithms that provide certain guarantees and capabilities that a master-slave system with synchronous replication, such as PostgreSQL, cannot offer.

These algorithms ensure that a majority of nodes (a quorum) must agree on any proposed chAnge. This agreement guarantees that once a decision is made (e.g., to commit a transaction), it is final and consistent across all nodes. This strong consistency is critical in distributed systems to avoid split-brain scenarios.

This is easily caused by :

1-network partition

2-latency issues.

3-Async failover (2 nodes think they are the master)

4-replica lag (some but not all replica acknowledged the write) while master send confirmation to client

Redis is a very bad store for a distributed lock but Postgres is only slightly better.

What you truly need is something like ZooKeeper and etcd that are designed to achieve distributed consensus using algorithms like Paxos or Raft.

This ensures strong consistency and reliability in a distributed system, making them ideal for tasks like leader election, configuration management, and lease management where consistency across nodes is critical.

But inside on epoch there is a lot of duplication already.

By duplication I mean if context length is N there is many sequence of N word that are not unique.
