Very nice. It'd be cool to have an option to collapse the summary content to skim through everything.

If you could add the ability to auto hide the bar and show it on mouseover, kind of like the dock, and also customize the active app color in the bar (it's a little bright for my taste), I would totally purchase a license.

Love these kinds of posts. Tried railway for the first time a few days ago. It was a delightful experience. Great work!

Ran with Opus, 0 temp. Screenshot included (original comment) for reference.

I tried Sonnet also, to no avail:

To solve this problem, we need to find the number of sisters Sally has.

Given information:

Sally has 3 brothers. Each brother has 2 sisters. Since Sally is a girl, she is not counted as a sister to her brothers.

Step 1: Find the total number of sisters for all 3 brothers. Number of sisters for each brother = 2 Total number of sisters for all 3 brothers = 3 × 2 = 6

Step 2: Since Sally is not counted as a sister to her brothers, the number of sisters Sally has is the total number of sisters for all 3 brothers minus Sally herself. Number of sisters Sally has = Total number of sisters for all 3 brothers - 1 Number of sisters Sally has = 6 - 1 = 5

Therefore, Sally has 5 sisters.

Opus (and all prior Claude models) still do not correctly answer the Sally question, unfortunately:

Q: Sally (a girl) has 3 brothers. Each brother has 2 sisters. How many sisters does Sally have?

A: Okay, let's organize the information we have:

Sally is a girl. Sally has 3 brothers. Each of Sally's brothers has 2 sisters. Now, let's think about this step by step:

We know that Sally is a girl, so she is a sister to her brothers. Each of Sally's brothers has 2 sisters. One of these sisters is Sally, but who is the other sister? Since Sally has only brothers and no other sisters are mentioned, we can conclude that the other sister for each brother is also Sally.

Therefore, Sally has no sisters other than herself. So, the answer is that Sally has 0 sisters.

Created a simple app to test Gemini here:

https://github.com/dssjon/gemini/blob/main/app.py

Most likely through this platform: https://console.cloud.google.com/vertex-ai

The trick is to access the "bard-jan-24-gemini-pro" model, available in direct chat mode here: https://chat.lmsys.org/. Significantly better than the prior model.

My family is set to fly with Alaska Airlines in a Boeing 737-9 MAX (ETOPS) this April. I'm just wondering about options and what others would do in this scenario. Maybe switch to a Delta flight on an Airbus A220-300, even though it means losing out on non-refundable discounts? Also, does anyone know if Alaska Airlines might let us change our non-refundable tickets (for an April flight) if we're worried about safety?

I'm pleased to present an update to Biblos, a semantic search tool designed for in-depth Bible study. This release incorporates community suggestions and introduces instructor-large embeddings to enhance the precision of verse retrieval.

Biblos aims to facilitate a deeper exploration of biblical texts, offering nuanced search capabilities for those delving into themes or seeking interpretations of theological nuances. The updated version is now available for use at https://biblos.app/

Technical Insights:

- Utilizes Chroma for vector search, now powered by instructor-large embeddings for improved semantic accuracy.

- Features Anthropic's Claude LLM model to generate summaries that provide context and clarity for search results.

- Developed with a Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) architecture, the app offers a streamlined user experience through a Streamlit Web UI, all orchestrated with Python.

Feel free to review or fork the source code here: https://github.com/dssjon/biblos

Your feedback has been instrumental in shaping this update, and I look forward to your thoughts on the enhancements.

Interesting insights, currently using the WEB translation, and plan to expand further. Thanks for the bug report!

Sounds interesting! Email sent. (Just added my email to HN profile).

Here's a good read to start on: https://towardsdatascience.com/introduction-to-embedding-clu...

Thanks for the feedback - this particular model is BAAI/bge-large-en-v1.5. What alternative embeddings would you recommend?

The semantic search uses the BGE model here (https://huggingface.co/BAAI/bge-large-en-v1.5). The summarizer response attempts to avoid context outside of verses provided to Claude's API. By default, Claude has a tendency to start quoting other verses not included in the search context (which it was generally trained on).

The full bible text is embedded and searchable. The summary from Anthropics Claude API returns non-deterministic results though! What was the search context? The prompt could probably be tuned further to work-around its "comfort" level here.

This technique can be used for any book (assuming permissions for storing the text). Feel free to fork the project and try it out!

My first release used the KJV! The vector DB includes metadata (book, chapter, verse), working towards optionally rendering those. I like the idea of including multiple translations (with side by side comparisons). I'm limited to public domain texts for storage but I can query the ESV API after retrieval. Good idea about commentaries. Thanks for your input!
