Adult hedgehogs are also safe to pet, but only if they want to.

When I was a kid, I found one in the woods. At first it would ball up or escape when I arrived, but eventually it would fold down the spikes to let me pet it.

Thanks, I think this is a good clarification, I had not encountered rerankers outside this specific implementation.

For those (like me 10 minutes ago) who wonder what are reranker models…

Reranker models are models which can evaluate the semantic similarity of two pieces of text. They can be used to improve RAG systems which use embeddings to look for relevant documents. The reranker model can then be used to select the best candidates.

This improves the result, because reranker models look at the two pieces of content simultaneously and can be fine tuned to the domain in question. They shouldn’t be used for the initial retrieval because the evaluation time is O(n²) as each combination of input and document pair needs to be evaluated as a pair.

As I understand accounting, you really don’t need to do stuff like this to write off your assets.

I’m not saying there isn’t a cynical corporate reason for doing this but I doubt this is it.

Itty bitty kitty committee.

Honestly, I’d try that just to put my name on the page of that record book.

That hiding candy (or other things people wanted) was a universal property of grandmothers.

English is not my first language, but I had heard the expression “search all nooks and crannies”, but thought the last word was grannies - cranny is an unusual word.

Now,my own grandmother was in the habit of hiding candy for us to find. I thought the expression existed because all grannies hid things. Search all nooks and grannies!

I may have heard.

What’s with the title?! Here’s my alternative: China’s EV boom makes a dent in fossil fuel consumption.

Yote has class.

No, it’s still lacking a few features like CMYK color spaces. The UX issues are those of polish: the feature works if you know exactly how to use it, but a lot of times the workflows are neither intuitive for novices or efficient for proficient users. The team clearly has accepted this too.

As a 10+ year GIMP user, yes it’s that bad.

I still use it because it’s the only relatively full featured photo editor that works on all my platforms, but… Yea.

I have this in a big way. My spouse is a master chef and I refuse to eat at restaurants which serve foods from her home country because they can’t compete.

Coin op skate sharpening sounds perfect for Canada.

I wonder if I could bring that to Finland…?

Or we pretend to be opening a Koskenkorva bottle in whatever orientation the bolt is in.

My grandfather’s cat used to play goalie. She would guard some area, like a doorway and expect us to tty to toss a ball or something through. She’d then catch it and return the ball to us for more.

What I meant was (and I was being a little humorous) that your normal type is the one you’d rationally want to like intellectually and emotionally and this dude is the one you.are physically attracted to. I was thinking you were crying over the men you wanted to be similarly physically attracted to and the strong emotional reaction was a result of your surprise at how intense the physical attraction could be.

It’s OK to have more than one type and be attracted to different people for different reasons. I think you have just discovered a new aspect of your own preferences and are trying to reconcile them.

Perhaps you secretly know you’ll end up with a guy much like this one, and are therefore crying for the others…

What does ‘modems in mobile phones’ mean? Isn’t the whole thing a modem strapped onto a screen? What am I missing?

Khan academy can solve this for you, if you want.
