Experiment

'Applying technology', enterprises should take it as investment, instead of expense. This means 'taking risk'.

New IT ideas should be applied on small group first, in order to prove the validity and effectiveness.And then expanding its functionality toward full scale and taking user habits into consider. Finally, it is time to search for substitute products in IT market.

During the experiment period, enterprises could hire less experienced developers to implement expected functionality. Senior IT professionals help resolve technical boundaries. When the experiment is taken as successful and the enterprise decides to keep this model, there are two options to build it into formal and reliable structure. One is the senior developer takes over the responsibility of core structure improvement, and less skillful developers continue on customize the model to be more user friendly.

If the project is decided to be outsourced, the project manager have a practical model to negotiate with developing company, or to search for existing products. Current model is still in use until the new tool is ready. The senior developer is responsible for building bridging tools and exporting existing data to new IT product/system.

Experiment is not a waste. It proves the validity of new ideas, helps the enterprise to polish unfulfilled ideas to practical IT model, and, in fact, it prevents failed investment in unfamiliar IT products and saves money.

Guide to Preserving HuggingFace Models in Google Colab Environments

Conclusion:  Step 1:  find the model path: ls ~/.cache  Step 2:  Copy the entire folder to Google Drive:  Step 3:  Set model path to the subfolder under snapshot: My Story: I initially began exploring Generative AI (GAI) and Google Colab through Stable Diffusion. In the past, as I mainly wrote server services and console applications, I was less familiar with data science modes like R and Jupyter that can maintain a paused state. I didn't quite understand the heavy burden on Colab of creating a temporary Stable Diffusion WebUI with .ipynb, as suggested by popular guides. I just found it troublesome that connections often took a long time and then dropped, requiring a restart. Recently, while testing new versions of the Stable Diffusion model, and facing challenges due to Colab's policies making various versions of WebUI difficult to run successfully, I started researching how to write my own test programs in Colab. Eventually, I understood that Colab is ess...

docker: storage and services

Docker Volume Without going through Docker, accessing files within a Docker image is not easy. Therefore, Docker has a volume feature that allows users to specify the location on the host file system to serve as the access directory for Docker. In other words, a volume is the NFS of a Docker image. Example: Using a volume to store SQLite files. ref:  SQLite for NodeJS: https://www.sqlitetutorial.net/sqlite-nodejs/ Initialize the project. # Setup ExpressJS framework express --view=pug 240324_ejs_sqlite_docker npm init npm install express npm install sqlite3 Test: npm start Initialize docker  Since the directory already contains NodeJS, the Docker Daemon will assist in the setup. Create new docker image docker build -t atfuture7/sqlite01 . Create a folder for Docker, create a container, run it.  mkdir docker_vol docker run -p 3000:3000 -v ./docker_vol:/data --name exp_sqlite atfuture7/sqlite01 After confirming that the container can run co...

Bookmark service (MongoDB & Spring REST)

Completed a working version of Bookmark service. Feeling great~~ ha! ha! Finding something to practice is an efficient way of learning. The project concept is redesigned from a MongoDB project. Weeks ago, I was learning MongoDB and NodeJS. Mixing everything together is my hobby. There might be conflictions, but putting all strengths together has higher potential to resolve difficult and complex problems. Elites getting together might sometimes not be easy, I mean technology, of course. Nice things deserve practice.  Building your first application with MongoDB: Creating a REST API using the MEAN Stack https://www.mongodb.com/blog/post/building-your-first-application-mongodb-creating-rest-api-using-mean-stack-part-1   After redesign…… is ….extremely simple…. But contains enough new topics for me to explore. I’m just a starter of Spring (and a veteran of OO and Cloud programming). Keep everything simple and fast.    I applied to cloud services (like AWS), online artist...
