What's your Workflow for Learning New Things vs. Refreshing Forgotten Knowledge?**
For a long time, I used a single multi-million word .txt. Since migrating to Obsidian, I’ve sampled workflows but can’t quite stick to one (haven’t processed most things to evergreen notes etc.) I’ve sort of split concrete steps from theory (with sql, git etc. cookbooks) or made notes showing the same process happening in 10 fields, collating synonyms etc. but it’s all so unwieldy, so undisocverable. ⌘ Read more

A simple terminal helper to save keystrokes
I’m very lazy. Sometimes I’m lazy even to switch window from terminal to chatgpt. Yet alone copy and paste command from gpt to terminal, and back. So I create a very simple helper, which uses TIOCSTI to insert gpt response as input in terminal, so I can modify it right away and run.

Her is my workflow:

- Start typing command I want to run lsof -
- Figure out, what I forgot the name flags, lsof -tcp 8089
- Press, ctrl+g and allow my helper to query GPT with my command as prompt.

ELEET: Efficient Learned Query Execution over Text and Tables
Abstract:
In this paper, we present ELEET, a novel execution engine that al-
lows one to seamlessly query and process text as a first-class citizen
along with tables. To enable such a seamless integration of text and
tables, ELEET leverages learned multi-modal operators (MMOps)
such as joins and unions that seamlessly combine structured with
unstructured textual data. While large language models (LLM) such
as GPT-4 are interesting candidates to enable such l ... ⌘ Read more
