Iulia Feroli @iuliaferoli.com · 21/10/2025Is generating fake videos the best AI has to offer? Are we using too much inference power with little to show for it?

Iulia Feroli @iuliaferoli.com · 05/02/2025The only way we can get great results out of LLMs is if you perfect prompt engineering / figure out how to be as explicit and precise as possible about your requirements and how the code should perform. Sooo is the AI revolution going to actually make people write good documentation and wikis?? 😅😅 020
Iulia Feroli @iuliaferoli.com · 04/02/2025It turns out #PHP is as far away from my familiar safety blanket of #Python as you can get 😅.

Iulia Feroli @iuliaferoli.com · 04/02/2025Second day at #laracon EU and I have to say, the community here is so lovely and exciting that it made me want to attempt to learn PHP! And that's something since in all my years of programming so far I never once got tempted to touch #javascript. I'll call that a big #laravel win! 120

Iulia Feroli @iuliaferoli.com · 29/01/2025Today I dove into my activity tracker data; specifically, the sleep score that Oura calculates daily. The intuition/assumption about it is pretty simple - more deep sleep and lower heart rate correlate with better scores. Is it that simple? Let's take a look in a quick data science experiment 110

Iulia Feroli @iuliaferoli.com · 07/01/2025New year new project.

Iulia Feroli @iuliaferoli.com · 21/11/2024Someone asked the other day what "developer advocate" even means.

Iulia Feroli @iuliaferoli.com · 21/11/2024A shard is a #lucene instance that runs on a node, that's part of a cluster, and is replicated for fault tolerance.
