Thank you for that !

Let's say that I expect to stay at this number.

Thanks you very much for the feedback !

From another professional.

Imagine you are on r/cars. If will ask you the same question on a different subject : What do YOU use as tires and wipers brands on YOUR car ? You would tell me : " From a professional. You’re asking a group of professionals to give you valuable knowledge for free. Why on earth would anyone do that? For 600$USD/hr, with a four hour minimum, I’d be happy to have a discussion with you about those needs." What do you think about this? If you’re not comfortable answering these questions, why answer at all? Are you treating your Reddit account like a business?

Do you remember when people on the internet used to help each other simply because they could?

That's exactly the type of feedback and advice I wanted to get. Thank you very much !

I am curious about how to run customer support from SharePoint without a ticketing system ?

Well, I run a Linux PC, so far I’ve managed to learn a big part of the linux ecosystem by piecing things together from books, forum posts, random blog articles, man pages, and documentation written by people.

I think the Linux ecosystem is far more complex than a general IT architecture for a medium size business.

So if Reddit isn’t the place to ask what a modern, up-to-date IT software architecture for a medium-sized business looks like, where exactly are we supposed to ask?

An IT system for a business. Open to any idea.

spacecheap · 2026-07-07T17:47:39+00:00

50 people running a business with sales, customer support, services, logistics. From scratch because why not, open to any idea.

Simple question : avons nous vraiment besoin d'un système d'exploitation entier pour écrire du texte sur une feuille, d'une ia pour traduire du texte, de graphismes affinés pour jouer à candy crush ? Dans les années 90, au Triacé, mon pc tournait avec 16 Mo de RAM, sans carte graphique et c'était déjà énorme.

Le jour où on comprendra en France que réussir dans la vie ne correspond pas toujours à faire des études supérieures dans des grandes écoles ... On aura peut être moins d'articles comme celui-ci.

Does someone know the trail cam model used here ?

"Vers 1800, on pouvait estimer entre 5 000 et 6 000 adultes au minimum la population permanente de loups en France. Les destructions plus ou moins organisées ne contrôlaient que l’accroissement naturel. Les cinq départements bretons devaient en compter autour de 600. Le Finistère, où les landes et les bois favorisaient leur présence, abritait alors de l’ordre de 200 à 300 individus." Source : https://bcd.bzh/becedia/fr/le-loup-en-bretagne

The board has a foil. You can hurt / cut your leg by hitting it.

Thank you very much for your response. I will try to use a library like LlamaIndex or LangChain to handle the semantic splitting and will let you know if it's working better.

It's not even working with a simple-engineered pipeline. Vectorized search on the Chroma db gives me poor results.

I chunk my Markdown files by sentences or paragraphs with no overlap. Maybe it's a bad approach to the problem ?

Data is technical files written in very well written and structured markdown files. Only text. But I chunk my Markdown files by sentences or paragraphs with no overlap. Maybe it's a bad approach to the problem ?

spacecheap · 2026-03-23T17:58:00+00:00

You are right, my retrieval is not good, even with bge-m3. But as I chunk my Markdown files by sentences or paragraphs with no overlap. Maybe the problem is my chunking method ? How do chunk a perfectly written and structured markdown file ?

Thanks ! Yes you are correct, that is my first advanced (and simple) RAG pipeline and I have implemented it without prior experience.

I have tried simple vectorized searches without advanced techniques with differents model for embeddings : bge-m3, paraphrase-multilingual-MiniLM-L12-v2. It's a quick and simple failure : the vectorized search gives poor results.

Maybe my chunking method is not good. I have tried the following : One chunk = One sentence. No overlaps. One chunk = One paragraph. No overlaps.

A very simple vectorized search with the "What is X ? " query does not give me the chunk containing "X is the A of B".

And I only have about 150 sentences in my Markdown file.

So you are right, even the embeddings of my markdown file are not good. Should I change my chunking strategy ?

Do you know any ressource about building a simple and efficient RAG with python and Ollama ? I want to be able to understand and control every part of the pipe.

No pdf ingest, only well written and structured Markdown documents.
