Calling LLM API is just 2 line of code. Building LLM App is just API Calling.
LangChain is a framework for sequential api calling, warpping 2 lines of code with 2 thousand lines of code, also wrapping python While loop in chain object. It's like: https://github.com/EnterpriseQualityCoding/FizzBuzzEnterpris...
> Unfortunately for the believers, new research mostly runs counter to this, showing that offices, for all their flaws, remain essential. A good starting point is a working paper that received much attention when it was published in 2020 by Natalia Emanuel and Emma Harrington, then both doctoral students at Harvard University. They found an 8% increase in the number of calls handled per hour by employees of an online retailer that had shifted from offices to homes. Far less noticed was a revised version of their paper, published in May by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The boost to efficiency had instead become a 4% decline.
The researchers had not made a mistake. Rather, they received more precise data, including detailed work schedules. Not only did employees answer fewer calls when remote, the quality of their interactions suffered. They put customers on hold for longer. More also phoned back, an indication of unresolved problems.
SWE for a top tier investment bank. Pays good. Attend meeting all days, no harsh deadline, work from home, boss doesn't do micro management, got plenty of free time so I end up running 10km everyday during lunch hour.
I had brain fog since college and I am now 31, I started running 1 year ago, and I am now running 50+ km per week. Haven't had even one brain fog ever since, feel like iron man everyday.
Oh yeah, so basically had he pushed further, he would have realized to avoid corruption, he would need to implement "write ahead log (WAL)". An for the implementation of WAL and other performance concern, he would have realized that storing the JSON as string is not the way to go, he'd need to implement other binary data structure. Then he'd have realized that he had just invented another NoSQL DB.
Had he pushed further.....
Had he pushed further, he'd have raised funding for the newly invented NoSQL DB, and built a startup company on top of it.
Interesting, if you ask a computer scientist what is the max number that can be counted with two hands, he will say 2^10 = 1024. 9,999 is far from 10-bit.
This will forever remain in grey area. I learnt almost all my coding skills from my first job as a programmer, I owe my mentor forever for whatever successes my skills will bring me in the future.
