I had this interesting situqtion, where I wanted to plot some numbers that were nested inside of struct columns. They were row counts in a delta table history output, but in any case, I tried to plot them, but my plot treated them as categories. Ok realizing they were strings, I cast them to integers, but then I got nulls. After a bit of trial and error I realized they were probably laerger than 32bit!...
placeholder. didnt get chance to write this up yet, but I had used langchain pgvector, to add embeddings to postgresql , I ran my queries, and noticed they were slow. I read about pgvector indexing, and on psql, noticed my embedding column was missing an index! I tried adding the HNSW index manually. Weird error about no dimensions on the vector column. ok learned need explicit dimension. Added it. Nice adding index worked....
motivation I know more about Databricks for distributed computing. But there is also the Kubernetes world. Let’s read some more on that. Was wondering hmm, I have used Tensorflow, pytorch on standalone VMs in the past and I know that Spark has its own distributed libraries, so do Tensorflow, pytorch natively support spark, hmm? lingering questions (1) What are the dominant technologies for distributed computing? (spark, and containerization by K8S) (2) specifically GPU vs cluster based, are these alternatives?...
My iphone has been overheating lately, 🤔 Read one good tip, forget where, just try to avoid using your phone while charging it if it is starting to overheat. But also, if it is really heating up, to stop charging it just in case. Makes sense. Going to try that next time. But what is the temp anyway? Nice, learned from here, https://www.guidingtech.com/how-to-check-iphone-temperature/, you can access your iphone temp through the Privacy Settings, Analytics data....
The legit cold plunge was great but the home one… A few weeks ago I tried the cold plunge at the Standard Spa at Miami Beach. Someone measuring the temp said it was 57 F and this was on a sunny 80 plus something day. That was amazing and I am glad I had a chance to try it a handful of times while there. While attempting to leave Miami back, hurricane Debby blocked most flights out including ours and we ended up leaving Miami two days later....
