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.

58 bytes of CSS to look great nearly everywhere

When making this website, i wanted a simple, reasonable way to make it look good on most displays. Not counting any minimization techniques, the following 58 bytes worked well for me:

main {
  max-width: 38rem;
  padding: 2rem;
  margin: auto;
}

Ensembl's VEP (Variant Effect Predictor) is popular for how it picks a single effect per gene as detailed here, its CLIA-compliant HGVS variant format, and Sequence Ontology nomenclature for variant effects.

To follow these instructions, we'll assume you have these packaged essentials installed:

## For Debian/Ubuntu system admins ##
sudo apt-get install -y build-essential git libncurses-dev

## For RHEL/CentOS system admins ##
sudo yum groupinstall -y 'Development Tools'
sudo yum install -y git ncurses-devel

Raspberry Pi Zero OTG Mode

Simple guide for setting up OTG modes on the Raspberry Pi Zero - By Andrew Mulholland (gbaman).

The Raspberry Pi Zero (and model A and A+) support USB On The Go, given the processor is connected directly to the USB port, unlike on the B, B+ or Pi 2 B, which goes via a USB hub.
Because of this, if setup to, the Pi can act as a USB slave instead, providing virtual serial (a terminal), virtual ethernet, virtual mass storage device (pendrive) or even other virtual devices like HID, MIDI, or act as a virtual webcam!
It is important to note that, although the model A and A+ can support being a USB slave, they are missing the ID pin (is tied to ground internally) so are unable to dynamically switch between USB master/slave mode. As such, they default to USB master mode. There is no easy way to change this right now.
It is also important to note, that a USB to UART serial adapter is not needed for any of these guides, as may be documented elsewhere across the int

// Usage:
//   Copy and paste all of this into a debug console window of the "Who is Hiring?" comment thread 
//   then use as follows:
//
//   query(term | [term, term, ...], term | [term, term, ...], ...)
// 
// When arguments are in an array then that means an "or" and when they are seperate that means "and"
//
// Term is of the format:
//    ((-)text/RegExp)  ( '-' means negation )

# Hello, and welcome to makefile basics.

# You will learn why `make` is so great, and why, despite its "weird" syntax,
# it is actually a highly expressive, efficient, and powerful way to build
# programs.

# Once you're done here, go to
