Speed

When non-IT enterprise wants to apply new technology, the most important thing is speed.

Speed is very critical to IT industry. Soundness and benefit should not be the first thought, although the first one to create doesn't guarantee to be the most successful. The product always needs polish. But failed to be the initiate almost doom to fail. Exclusivity in IT market is obvious.

There might be no exclusivity risk to non-IT company when applying new technology, and it seems delay helps decision makers to observe the value and evolvement of the product. But IT product changes all the time, and 'new' technology is aging. To non-IT company, the target to evaluate should be the effect of applying, but quite often they take the prosperity of this technology into budget consideration. After long term evaluation, the aim could never fulfill because the technology is out-of-date.

Non-IT company often forgets one thing: technology is the mediator to the expected effect, and is replaceable.

Bookmark service (MongoDB & Spring REST) -2/2

    I accidentally deleted my development VM. I got lucky having the habit of taking notes. This blog is useful. Development VM is doom to be lost. Rebuild it waste time, but having a clean slate is refreshing~. What concerns me more is my AWS free quota this month is reaching 85%. The second VM I launched but never being used might be the one to blame. (Of course, my mistake.) I terminated the wrong VM. Now I got Linux 2 built. Great, just threw away everything happened on AMI.  1st layer: Page Page class   Originally, I need to prepare getter/setter for all class properties for Spring. By using lombok, I only need to create constructors. lombok will deal with getter/setter and toString(). But there are chances to call getter/setter, but how? .......Naming convention.... Capitalize the 1st character with the prefix get/set.  Annotation @Data was used on this class.  Repository class Spring Docs: Repository https://docs.spring.io/spring-data/mongodb/docs/3....

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...
