Hugging Face 🤗 cooked again.
They just dropped a new free course with certification on fine-tuning:
> instruction tuning
> RL and preference alignment
> evaluation
> creating synthetic data
By the end of 2025 you have learned these essential skills from the best.

@NGKabra @anon_mama In our family, it was quite the opposite. They were hoping for a girl… and here we are, 3 brothers instead!

MARS5 TTS: Open Source Text to Speech with insane prosodic control! 🔥

> Voice cloning with less than 5 seconds of audio
> Two stage Auto-Regressive (750M) + Non-Auto Regressive (450M) model architecture
> Used BPE tokenizer to enable control over punctuations, pauses, stops etc.
> AR model predicts L0 coarse tokens, refined further by the NAR DDPM model followed by the vocoder

Great job Camb AI team! Kudos for open sourcing the artifacts - looking forward to what comes next ;)

Update on farm automation:

The actual problem of automating valves and motor is a lot more complex than I had initially thought.

The image shows the general outline of the one-acre land. Each plant will have a drip irrigation outlet.

The blue diamonds are valves that I'll have to automate. I can reduce the problem space by automating two bigger diamonds, but that's just part of it.

A few problems that need better understanding,

1. Electricity is unreliable, so automating the motor is quite complex.
Some of the problems are the phase going out, water running out, and phase reversal. Some companies (Ieyze) have solved this very well, and interfacing with such devices is a better option.

2. Water flow control is a complex subject about which I need to gain knowledge. The water flow has to be powerful enough to reach each drip irrigation outlet equally. This requires many things to be correct, including different valves in the proper configuration.

3. Other areas of the farm also need water, but not the Avocado plants. So automation will definitely help, but it requires careful thought due to #1 and #2.

All of this is well managed manually for now. So, I won't meddle with automating valves for now.

Focusing more on collecting soil humidity data for now. Back to programming ESP-32 with soil humidity sensor.

PS—The yellow plants in the diagram are for pollination. It works even better if you have a beehive around. Very cool! :D

Devanagari is an extremely elegant script. But this was never explained to us in school.

1. Let's you declaratively define the bot flow
2. Connects to majority of messaging channels / connectors / sinks
3. Has a free trial

Spoke to a Microsoft engineer on the GPT-6 training cluster project. He kvetched about the pain they're having provisioning infiniband-class links between GPUs in different regions.

Me: "why not just colocate the cluster in one region?"
Him: "Oh yeah we tried that first. We can't put more than 100K H100s in a single state without bringing down the power grid." 🤯

AI is eating the world. If you are spending time every day trying hard to automate as much of your job/company as possible, you have a seat at the table. Everyone else is on the menu.

[Dr Milan Milanović @milan_milanovic]

𝗙𝗮𝗰𝗲𝗯𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗮 𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗹 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝗱𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗿 𝗯𝘂𝗴𝘀 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆

The recent document by engineers from Facebook explains how they wrote a tool that can automatically fix bugs. In the paper, they introduced 𝗦𝗔𝗣𝗙𝗜𝗫, an automated tool designed to detect and repair bugs in software. The tool has suggested fixes for six essential Android apps in the Facebook App Family: Facebook, Messenger, Instagram, FBLite, Workplace, and Workchat.

How Does It Work?

𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟭: Detect a Crash - Another tool, 𝗦𝗮𝗽𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘇, finds app crashes. When Sapienz identifies a crash, it is logged into a database.

𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟮: Identify the Problem - SAPFIX pinpoints the exact line of code causing the issue. It first checks if the crash is reproducible. If it's not reproducible, the crash is discarded. It uses a technique called "spectrum-based fault localization" to identify the most likely lines of code responsible for the crash.

𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟯: Suggest a Fix - Using predefined templates or code mutations, SAPFIX proposes a solution. After identifying the fault location, SAPFIX attempts to generate a patch. It employs two strategies:

🔹 𝗧𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲-𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗙𝗶𝘅𝗶𝗻𝗴: SAPFIX uses predefined templates to suggest fixes for common bugs. These templates are designed based on standard developer practices.

🔹 𝗠𝘂𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻-𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗙𝗶𝘅𝗶𝗻𝗴: SAPFIX resorts to a mutation-based system if the template-based approach fails. It systematically applies a series of code mutations to the fault location to generate potential fixes.

𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟰: Test the Fix - The proposed solution is tested to ensure it's valid. It uses the test cases from 𝗦𝗮𝗽𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘇 to check the validity of the patch. If the patch passes all tests, it's considered a good fix. After patch validation, SAPFIX uses 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗲𝗿 (a static analysis tool) to analyze the proposed fix further. Infer checks if the patch introduces any new potential issues.

𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝟱: Review - Developers get the final say, reviewing and approving the fix.

itertools.batched was introduced in Python 3.12. 🐍🚀

Where do you see it being used?

Off the top of my head I'm struggling to come up with a decent usage example.
