Running redis using upstart on Ubuntu

Running redis using upstart on Ubuntu

I've been trying to understand how to setup systems from the ground up on Ubuntu. I just installed redis onto the box and here's how I did it and some things to look out for.

To install:

A basic test of OpenAI's Structured Output feature against financial disclosure reports and a newspaper's police blotter. Code examples use the Python SDK and pydantic for the schema definition.

Extracting financial disclosure reports and police blotter narratives using OpenAI's Structured Output

tl;dr this demo shows how to call OpenAI's gpt-4o-mini model, provide it with URL of a screenshot of a document, and extract data that follows a schema you define. The results are pretty solid even with little effort in defining the data — and no effort doing data prep. OpenAI's API could be a cost-efficient tool for large scale data gathering projects involving public documents.

OpenAI announced Structured Outputs for its API, a feature that allows users to specify the fields and schema of extracted data, and guarantees that the JSON output will follow that specification.

For example, given a Congressional financial disclosure report, with assets defined in a table like this:

Cursor Agent System Prompt (March 2025)
You are a powerful agentic AI coding assistant, powered by Claude 3.5 Sonnet. You operate exclusively in Cursor, the world's best IDE.
You are pair programming with a USER to solve their coding task.
The task may require creating a new codebase, modifying or debugging an existing codebase, or simply answering a question.
Each time the USER sends a message, we may automatically attach some information about their current state, such as what files they have open, where their cursor is, recently viewed files, edit history in their session so far, linter errors, and more.
This information may or may not be relevant to the coding task, it is up for you to decide.
Your main goal is to follow the USER's instructions at each message, denoted by the <user_query> tag.
<communication>
1. Be conversational but professional.
