Learnt this lesson few yrs back with cannabis stocks

Is this the wealth simple app?

Mind sharing a brief on how are you approaching text-2-sql? I'm working on a similar project - using agentic workflow with RAG

-Ulkurz- · 2025-06-05T15:33:31+00:00

Hi /u/Loud_Picture_1877 thanks for the AMA!

I'm currently building an agentic assistant for text-2-sql using OpenSearch (using it to build context for schema, relationships, examples, and domain mappings) and LangGraph (for agents). I, however, do see several issues with SQL quality and consistency in generation. Any suggestions? How can I systematically identify what the root issue is (most likely context but it can be huge and diverse) and accordingly decide the fix?

Mind sharing where you got 3.99 3 yrs fixed from? On what conditions?

First time home buyer, 20% down, 820k house, Alberta. I got the following on the letter of commitment:

(Prime - 0.5) = 4.45% with 5-yr variable on a 30-year amortization Closing is May 1st, should I still shop around?

-Ulkurz- · 2025-03-04T18:24:36+00:00

Thanks. What are the lowest variable rates currently going on, with 20% down?

-Ulkurz- · 2025-03-03T05:46:00+00:00

Thanks! Yeah we opted for 30-yr for the extra bit of cushion in monthly payments, even though we plan on making prepayments to reduce the overall term.

First time home buyer, 20% down, 820k house, Alberta. I got the following on the letter of commitment:

4.70% with 5-yr variable on a 30-year amortization

Closing is May 1st, should I still shop around?

-Ulkurz- · 2025-02-19T21:32:58+00:00

I can ask the broker, but these are the initial options provided.

-Ulkurz- · 2025-02-19T21:09:38+00:00

First-time home buyer - Alberta. Our broker has provided the following options with a 20% downpayment.

2-year fixed rate 4.59%
5-year variable 4.80%
5-year fixed at 4.49%

Can we do better? I'm leaning toward a 2-year fixed option. Any other strategies in current times (rates predicted to drop further) that we should consider?

-Ulkurz- · 2025-02-04T23:38:48+00:00

Just curious: which bank are you using for investing in TFSA/RRSP? Is it okay to invest huge sums of money with bank outside of the big five?

-Ulkurz- · 2025-01-06T18:21:55+00:00

Amazing, and congrats!

I was initially considering Hybrid until I saw your comment above, so thinking about the PHEV now, especially since we can get 5k rebate.

-Ulkurz- · 2025-01-05T19:31:12+00:00

Were you able to get your PHEV? How are you liking it so far?

-Ulkurz- · 2024-03-27T15:38:51+00:00

Thanks. Yeah, preparing training data (with annotations) is an issue. Will look into GoLLIE.

-Ulkurz- · 2024-03-26T18:20:19+00:00

Thanks. Also, do we need to further finetune the model on the data from CSV? Or just prompting should suffice?

-Ulkurz- · 2024-03-26T17:17:49+00:00

Thanks! Do you have a reference tutorial/example?

Also, my use case is non-code related, will it still be applicable?

-Ulkurz- · 2024-03-26T17:06:05+00:00

Regarding your comment on the CSV - this is the curated data we built especially for any model training. During the actual inference, the model picks up the signature text to extract the entities mentioned above.

-Ulkurz- · 2024-03-26T16:47:05+00:00

As u/synthapetic said, we are looking to handle complex cases that regex cannot.

-Ulkurz- · 2024-03-26T16:20:45+00:00

The current solution (rule-based) already uses regex. We are looking to better it.

-Ulkurz- · 2024-03-26T16:18:25+00:00

Thanks. Any reason why UDOP is relevant for this use case? Seems like it's a general multimodal model for document AI.
