Anti-hype LLM reading list

Goals: Add links that are reasonable and good explanations of how stuff works. No hype and no vendor content if possible. Practical first-hand accounts and experience preferred (super rare at this point).

My own notes from a few months back.

Background

• Survey of LLMS
• Self-attention and transformer networks

; FIXME: The grammar has been transformed so that `w` appears after a
; token, but there is no way in ABNF to define it as token-separator
; that can optionally contain a mix of comments and white-space. Take
; `;;` as an example, for that to match `sql-stmt-list` `w` would
; have to match the empty string. But if `w` matches the empty string
; then `ISNOT` is the same as `IS NOT`.

AWS CLI command to update CNAME

When you have a set of application servers running in EC2 in an active/passive configuration, the easiest way to failover is to simply update the DNS to point to the second server as soon as it's available to serve requests. If you are using Route 53 to manage your DNS configuration, with the AWS CLI you can make this change in a single command.

Initial Setup

• Install the AWS CLI
• Login with an account that has an IAM Policy that gives it access to the Route53 Service
• Get the HostedZoneID for the domain you want to update from the AWS console here: https://console.aws.amazon.com/route53/home#hosted-zones:

The CLI expects the change to be submitted via a JSON-formatted configuration file. I've inclu

Renaming table in Ecto migration

I recently wanted to rename a model and its postgres table in a Phoenix app. Renaming the table was simple and documented, but the table also had constraints, sequences, and indexes that needed to be updated in order for the Ecto model to be able to rely on default naming conventions. I couldn't find any examples of what this would look like but was eventually able to figure it out. For anyone else in the same situation, hopefully this example helps.

In the example below, I'm renaming the Permission model to Membership. This model belongs to a User and an Account, so it has foreign key constraints that need to be renamed.

defmodule MyApp.Repo.Migrations.RenamePermissionsToMemberships do
