Normcore LLM Reads

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 of models in prod eagerly sought.

JSON to NDJSON

NDJSON is a convenient format for storing or streaming structured data that may be processed one record at a time.

  • Each line is a valid JSON value
  • Line separator is ‘\n’

1. Convert JSON to NDJSON?

cat test.json | jq -c '.[]' > testNDJSON.json
import PIL, random, sys
from PIL import Image, ImageDraw
origDimension = 1500
r = lambda: random.randint(50,215)
rc = lambda: (r(), r(), r())
listSym = []
def create_square(border, draw, randColor, element, size):
if (element == int(size/2)):
draw.rectangle(border, randColor)
elif (len(listSym) == element+1):

Minimal tutorial on packing (pack_padded_sequence) and unpacking (pad_packed_sequence) sequences in pytorch.
import torch
from torch import LongTensor
from torch.nn import Embedding, LSTM
from torch.autograd import Variable
from torch.nn.utils.rnn import pack_padded_sequence, pad_packed_sequence
## We want to run LSTM on a batch of 3 character sequences ['long_str', 'tiny', 'medium']
#
# Step 1: Construct Vocabulary
# Step 2: Load indexed data (list of instances, where each instance is list of character indices)
