I naively went into a work problem thinking that RAG was solved by the service offered at work, and wow was I wrong. Been a fun week so far experimenting with many different methods before doing the academic research, and it's been nice to be validated by outside research.
Any conversation
A thing I've been doing lately is trying to come to the same conclusions others have without looking their the direct techniques and code. Last night I tried to figure out why people do vector based retrieval for RAG and ended up running these experiments: n0tls.com/โฆ/2026-09-03-i-think-โฆrag-with-grep.html
I'm still going to do an explore agent.
a Gemma 4 a Google tulajdona, nem tรกrol mรกs adatot, csak amirลl a gรฉpen fogom a Rezsล nevลฑ OpenClaw รผgynรถkรถt kรฉrdezgetni, helyileg azt sem itt tartja, hanem a felhลnek csรบfolt infrastruktรบrรกban, ami legvalรณszรญnลฑbben valamelyik brazรญliai esลerdลben foglal helyet vagy Finnorszรกgban
Gemma 4 is owned by Google, it doesn't store any other data, except what I'll ask the OpenClaw agent named Rezsล about on the machine, it doesn't keep it locally either, but in the infrastructure mocked as the cloud, which is most likely located in a Brazilian rainforest or in Finland
ive been rocking my thinkpad 460s since 2018 or so, but ive just recently yolo purchased a chunky t420 for 80โฌ. I gotta say this is the best laptop ive ever used, keyboard/io is unmatched and it still runs super snappy on omarchy right now, even with only 4 gigs of ram :D AND this thing has a cd drive!
mรฉg csak barรกtkozom azzal a gondolattal, hogy a Gemma 4 miatt elลszรถr is Windows 11 lesz a gรฉpen (meg hogy Szentmihรกlyon presszรณ lesz), ezรฉrt nehรฉz elkezdeni
I'm still getting used to the idea that because of Gemma 4, I'll have Windows 11 on my computer first (and that there will be a presso in Szentmihรกly), so it's hard to get started.
Hi ha dies que em demano si no hauria d'escriure en catalร aquรญ, per tal que hi hagi mรฉs diversitat lingรผรญstica visible. Al cap i a la fi, avui en dia les traduccions sรณn econรฒmiques. La traducciรณ automร tica pot ajudar a preservar la diversitat lingรผรญstica del mรณn.
There are days when I wonder if I shouldn't write in Catalan here, so that there is more visible linguistic diversity. After all, translations are cheap these days. Machine translation can help preserve the world's linguistic diversity.
