Introduction FastEmbed is a lightweight and fast Python library designed for generating high-quality text embeddings. FastEmbed supports a variety of popular text models and is continuously expanding to include more. At its core, FastEmbed utilizes the Flag Embedding model from the MTEB leaderboard, offering distinct “query” and “passage” prefixes for input text. This feature makes […]
Using serde_json to Handle Fake Data in Rust When working with JSON data in Rust, serde_json provides a convenient way to parse and manipulate JSON values. In this post, we’ll demonstrate how to use serde_json::Value to create some mock data, simulate a search result, and extract specific fields from it. Creating Fake Data and Extracting […]
This article delves into a Rust program that showcases custom error handling, parsing, and validation. By leveraging the thiserror crate, we create descriptive error types to manage various parsing scenarios robustly. We’ll explore how the program defines an Animal struct, parses and validates integer strings, and utilizes generics and traits for flexible error reporting. Whether […]
Introduction In this guide, we will compare Rust and Python for asynchronous and multithreaded operations, particularly focusing on uploading data to a Qdrant vector search engine. We will evaluate how using Arc in Rust and AsyncQdrantClient in Python impacts performance. Imagine you get approached by a company to speed up their code and you improve […]
Rust is an ideal choice for image preprocessing due to its combination of performance, safety, and concurrency. Its low-level control allows for highly efficient image manipulation, crucial for handling large datasets or performing complex transformations. Image preprocessing involves transforming raw image data into a format that is usable and meaningful. If you want a fast […]
To begin with, when learning about ML/AI you may just use the model specified in the tutorial you’re doing, but later on you’ll want to research, test, and evaluate different models based on size, performance and write your code to suit. Let’s compare output using 2 different models that I used in a recent project […]
Webdock – Fast Cloud VPS Linux Hosting Introduction Let’s see how to create a text similarity search web app using Flask, a pre-trained BERT model, and FAISS for efficient similarity search! Section 1: Importing Libraries “First, we need to import all the necessary libraries. We’ll be using Flask to create our web application, Hugging Face’s […]
“WebSockets revolutionize web communication by establishing persistent, full-duplex connections between a client (typically a browser) and a server. Unlike traditional HTTP, WebSockets enable real-time, bi-directional data exchange, ideal for interactive applications like live chat, gaming, and financial tickers. By maintaining a constant connection, WebSockets eliminate the need for frequent client polling, reducing latency and server […]
To use Ruff we need to consider the configuration for pyproject.toml with a focus on how to set it up for Ruff. Installation guide here What is pyproject.toml? pyproject.toml is a configuration file used by various Python tools to read project-specific settings. It is designed to provide a standardized way for specifying build and configuration […]
