How BM25 and RAG Retrieve Information Differently?

When you type a query into a search engine, something has to decide which documents are actually relevant — and how to rank them. BM25 (Best Matching 25), the algorithm powering search engines like Elasticsearch and Lucene, has been the dominant answer to that question for decades.  It scores documents by looking at three things: […]

Implementing Deep Q-Learning (DQN) from Scratch Using RLax JAX Haiku and Optax to Train a CartPole Reinforcement Learning Agent

In this tutorial, we implement a reinforcement learning agent using RLax, a research-oriented library developed by Google DeepMind for building reinforcement learning algorithms with JAX. We combine RLax with JAX, Haiku, and Optax to construct a Deep Q-Learning (DQN) agent that learns to solve the CartPole environment. Instead of using a fully packaged RL framework,

Meet GitAgent: The Docker for AI Agents that is Finally Solving the Fragmentation between LangChain, AutoGen, and Claude Code

The current state of AI agent development is characterized by significant architectural fragmentation. Software devs building autonomous systems must generally commit to one of several competing ecosystems: LangChain, AutoGen, CrewAI, OpenAI Assistants, or the more recent Claude Code. Each of these ‘Five Frameworks’ utilizes a proprietary method for defining agent logic, memory persistence, and tool

A Coding Implementation for Building and Analyzing Crystal Structures Using Pymatgen for Symmetry Analysis, Phase Diagrams, Surface Generation, and Materials Project Integration

In this tutorial, we explore the capabilities of the pymatgen library for computational materials science using Python. We begin by constructing crystal structures such as silicon, sodium chloride, and a LiFePO₄-like material, and then investigate their lattice properties, densities, and compositions. Also, we analyze symmetry using space-group detection, examine atomic coordination environments, and apply oxidation-state

Safely Deploying ML Models to Production: Four Controlled Strategies (A/B, Canary, Interleaved, Shadow Testing)

Deploying a new machine learning model to production is one of the most critical stages of the ML lifecycle. Even if a model performs well on validation and test datasets, directly replacing the existing production model can be risky. Offline evaluation rarely captures the full complexity of real-world environments—data distributions may shift, user behavior can

A Coding Implementation to Build an Uncertainty-Aware LLM System with Confidence Estimation, Self-Evaluation, and Automatic Web Research

In this tutorial, we build an uncertainty-aware large language model system that not only generates answers but also estimates the confidence in those answers. We implement a three-stage reasoning pipeline in which the model first produces an answer along with a self-reported confidence score and a justification. We then introduce a self-evaluation step that allows

‘Thank God they’re still alive’: Kaiser therapists claim its new screening system puts patients at higher risk by delaying their care

Kaiser pushed back on striking workers’ claims and AI fears, saying it delivers ‘timely, high-quality care to meet members’ needs’Ilana Marcucci-Morris is worried about the patients she treats and how long it took for them to arrive in her office. At Kaiser Permanente’s psychiatry outpatient clinic in Oakland, California, she says she increasingly finds herself
