Consider your site content that is routinely updated, like weather maps, Covid charts, or stock graphs. Screen reader users encounter maps and charts where the image has been updated but the alt text hasn't. This can lead to confusion. Always update alt text when updating images.

Brilliantly executed meme work here. Also, the focus on tokenization tickles me. Tokenization is just feature learning/engineering wearing different clothes. It turns out that data representation matters! Again! Who knew?

Finally finished the first sock. Should I make the second sock identical or change it up with a different framework?

In science, it's better for your ideas to be wrong than to be vague. A wrong yet precise idea can be quickly tested and corrected, but a vague one cannot be tested at all, and can make you waste a lot more time.

You only need a little bit of TypeScript knowledge to be dangerous with React - Type your inputs, infer your outputs - Use React.ComponentProps everywhere - Use Omit<> when overriding props - Don't pass types from the DB into your components www.jacobparis.com/content/reac...

Mat is not on 🦋—posting on his behalf! It's time to revisit common assumptions in IR! Embeddings have improved drastically, but mainstream IR evals have stagnated since MSMARCO + BEIR. We ask: on private or tricky IR tasks, are rerankers better? Surely, reranking many docs is best?

Do you want to use the exact same alt text each time a specific image is used? Not necessarily. Alt text must consider the context of the image and why it's being included on a site, post, article, etc. In other words, alt text depends on where you're including the image and why.

What is the difference between weather and climate. This #dataviz shows the "Central England" average temperature for periods ranging from 1 day (weather) to 30 years (climate). This shows the climate signal emerging. Note the varying y axis that covers the range of the data.

"Good software takes (...) love to make" is in my experience one of the truest statements about software development. It's the drive to make the next version better, it's the indurance to not take short cuts and it's the anger that wants you to improve the process.
