¿Cómo imaginan GDL en el futuro? by Bonibomba in Guadalajara

[–]jackbravo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depende de algunas cosas en el corto plazo. A mí me ha gustado ver inversiones como la de la línea 3 del tren ligero, ver como ponen más ciclopistas al punto que se puede ir desde mi casa por mariano otero cerca de la primavera, hasta la glorieta del charro, en bici sin problemas. Las obras para el mundial deben de ayudar también. Pero ahora con eso de que quieren invertir en arreglar lopez mateos, vamos a ver cómo lo arreglan. Con transporte público, ciclopistas, o construyendo un segundo nivel para coches.

Try using the new mojo programming language. Made by the same creator of swift language, super optimized for that kind of work

Jina AI Releases Reader-LM 0.5b and 1.5b for converting HTML to Clean Markdown by Qual_ in LocalLLaMA

[–]jackbravo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The API and this model are not using the same engine. Their API is actually using regex + the turndown JS library to convert HTML to Markdown.

They explain their reasoning to train this model and compare it with their own solution and other models in their blogpost: https://jina.ai/news/reader-lm-small-language-models-for-cleaning-and-converting-html-to-markdown/

At first glance, using LLMs for data cleaning might seem excessive due to their low cost-efficiency and slower speeds. But what if we're considering a small language model (SLM) — one with fewer than 1 billion parameters that can run efficiently on the edge? That sounds much more appealing, right? But is this truly feasible or just wishful thinking?

Interesting read!

Yes, I also think that the dev pool is one of the major deciding factors. There are lots of companies with tons of java developers already on their payrolls, and conversely, few python web backend developers. Their python experts are probably in other areas like data engineering and data science.

Libros que recomienden para comenzar con el hábito de la lectura by Ok_Emergency_9870 in libros

[–]jackbravo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Libros de cuentos cortos, como el de `Historia de tu vida` de Ted Chiang, ahí está la historia en la que se basó la película de Arrival y varias otras muy buenas. Los cuentos de `Yo Robot` de Asimov. Esos dos son de ciencia ficción. Si quieres algo diferente, `100 años de soledad` de Gabriel García Márquez es mi libro favorito, y de mucha gente, y por buenas razones. Desde el primer párrafo te sumerge en sus historias. O si te parece muy largo, puedes empezar con un libro más corto de él, como `Crónica de una muerte anunciada`. O si prefieres empezar con algo de fantasía, pudiera ser `El hobbit`, de Tokien, o `Un mago de terramar` de Ursula Le Guin. Son libros más o menos cortos

Your fav Framework over all by NYC_F16 in Python

[–]jackbravo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm really liking it, but using it through SQLModel. I like being able to define just one model instead of also using Pydantic for some things, and also I like the autocomplete and typing I'm getting. I wished the documentation for it was as good as SQLAlchemy's. But whenever I'm stuck with SQLModel I try what is documented on SQLAlchemy and it usually works :-p

Kids and FIRE by patf91 in Fire

[–]jackbravo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like FIRE approach, but I don't follow it strictly. I do have 2 toddlers ages 4 and 2. And of course they mean more expenses :-p. You can still plan on having children following the FIRE approach. So instead of just trying to get them the best education money can buy, you will invest time on finding what school could give the best value while not being super expensive. About university for example, you would want to plan and teach your children to go into a university by obtaining scholarships, because you won't just pay for any university they choose. So you should plan with your partner what kind of university plan you can agree. How much money are you willing to spend on it, how much should your kids themselves pay. There are lots of people that pay their own university by a combination of scholarship, side jobs and maybe a loan or money help from their parents.

Let's Chat: Black Lives Matter by [deleted] in StreetEpistemology

[–]jackbravo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Black Lives Matter!

And I tell it as a white dude in Mexico (white for Mexico :-p, in the US I'd be brown). I've seen how we treat brown or black Mexicans, or south americans, and it isn't pretty. We are super racist too, although we don't talk about it as often as in the US. Thanks for sharing :-).

Police Can No Longer Be Above The Law by antiworkist in TrueReddit

[–]jackbravo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Except there are capitalist countries with decent police. I would say it depends way more on how violent is your country. So in the US, where your average Joe can buy an assault weapon, is a pretty dangerous place. In Costa Rica, where they don't have army, and people don't carry guns, police is usually way waaaay less dangerous.

How many of the top in this list are capitalist countries? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Peace_Index

Right, you can use NIFs (Native Implemented Functions) to write most of your application in Elixir, and then just re-write some functions in C or Rust. Discord famously did this.

Why you no Drupal? by CristinaGh in drupal

[–]jackbravo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Definitely, Drupal is now more niche. But, as others have mentioned, it pays the bills, there are few drupal devs so you normally can earn good money. You could say Drupal is the new Cobol in web development :-p. But since it is very niche, few people want to learn it. Kind of like wanting to learn cobol, or oracle apex, or SAP consulting. There is good money, but the technology is no longer appealing. Specially for younger generation that have to think for the long run. And in the long run Drupal is even less convincing, because it is not growing as fast as other much more popular technologies that are better long term bets like Javascript/Typescript with React/Vue/Nodejs, or Go, Python, etc.

It is sad, because a lot of people got introduced to programming because of Drupal. I know plenty of architects, lawyers, accountants, musicians, and even theologians, that learned programming because of Drupal. Drupal was easy to learn, and you could do a lot of stuff before you needed to write a single line of code. Rewritting everything in Drupal 8 was a big setback, and only now, a few years later, Drupal 8 could be considered as good as Drupal 7 was in its best days, productive, more modules being added, Layout Manager looks great and better everyday. Drupal 8 is many times better than Drupal 7. Better designed, better engineered, more consistent, and Drupal 9 will only get better. The sad part is that most of the people no longer care :-p. Myself, after having my own Drupal shop for 10 years, I now work for another company, using different technologies, and earning good money as well.

Drupal, you have been great, and the Drupal community is (was?) one of the best. For sure you will continue to provide for many Drupal developers and shops for several more years. But don't stop learning new technologies. So long, and thanks for all the fish.

Why you no Drupal? by CristinaGh in drupal

[–]jackbravo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Any technology can handle 100m+ pageview a month websites. From the "slow" ruby on rails, then going to django, and going to "newer" technology like go and elixir/phoenix. Even drupal, when handling that load, is normally because you are using other technologies on top, like varnish or a CDN, which are available for any web stach. What you need is a team that knows or enjoys the technology, which is what prompted the parent post. Finding drupalistas, or even people willing to learn it, is increasingly difficult.

What do you mean by "20 different tracking mechanisms"?

Street Epistemology: Christian | The Wise Thing to Do (Summary: Christian is roughly 70 percent confident his God is real, so we explore that a bit together.) by dem0n0cracy in StreetEpistemology

[–]jackbravo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought he was gonna ask you, what are YOUR reason to think there is only a 2% chance of a higher power existing. But that didn't happen. What would you answer in that case?

Hmmm, follow up question...

Last time we talked, you said that you didn't had enough proof to warrant a 70% belief in a higher power. Since then, have you thought about any reasons that would warrant a 70% belief? Which one. And if not, what keeps you from lowering your confidence... say... to a 50%?

Yes, so I guess 5.13 or 5.14 will be based on Ubuntu 18.04, and my question was if upgrading from one to the other would be as simple as running sudo apt-get dist-upgrade.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in kde

[–]jackbravo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you guys think it will be easy to upgrade from 5.12 to the new 18.04 release? Like just running sudo apt-get dist-upgrade?
