LLM Embeddings Explained: A Visual and Intuitive Guide

In this article we go through the fundamentals of embeddings. We will cover what embeddings are, how they evolved over time from statistical methods to modern techniques, check out how they're implemented in practice, look at some of the most important embedding techniques, and how the embeddings of an LLM (DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-1.5B) look like as a graph representation.

Pet insurance could help you offset rising veterinary costs

Veterinarians nationwide reported that corporate managers pushed clinics to focus on profit, with vets often paid based on revenue. This encouraged them to see more pets, order more tests, and upsell services, creating a growing burden for uninsured pet owners. Pet insurance could help you offset some of these rising costs, with some providing up to 90% reimbursement. View Money’s top pet insurance picks to see plans starting at only $10/month.

Best Practices in Data Warehousing Implementation

In this blog post, we’re going to uncover the best practices in data warehousing implementation. From understanding the foundational principles to navigating the latest technological advancements, we’ll guide you through the essential steps to ensure your data warehousing project is a success.

Six Principles for Production AI Agents

Building effective AI agents is about system design and proper software engineering. Focus on clear instructions, lean context management, robust tool interfaces, and automated validation loops. Look for missing tools, unclear prompts, or insufficient context when debugging agents. Put error analysis first in the development process - let models help understand where the agent failed, then systematically address those failure modes.
