Natural language processing (NLP) is reshaping technical documentation and developer enablement. Organizations that select the right tools and integrate them effectively into existing environments streamline documentation workflows, reduce manual effort, and make technical knowledge more accessible to developers at all levels. Unlocking the highest value from NLP tools requires organizations to adapt models to their […]
DevOps was supposed to make software delivery faster, safer and more reliable. For the most part, it has. But every so often, something nasty crawls out of the shadows and reminds us how fragile the system really is. It wasn’t a zero-day in Kubernetes or a cloud misconfiguration that caught my eye. It was a […]
At SQL Saturday Boston 2025, I gave a presentation on local LLMs and there was a great question that I wasn’t sure about. Someone asked about the download size vs the model size as listed on Hugging Face (or elsewhere). It was a good questions, and I assumed the parameter size (258M, 7B, etc.) relates to the download size or size on disk.I did a few searches and this was a great article on LinkedIn, called The Intergalactic Guide to LLM Parameter Sizes. In it, there’s a quick guide:Tiny (1-3B parameters): 1-2GB on diskSmall (4-8B parameters): 3-5GBMedium (10-15B): 8-15GBLarge (30-70B):…
Organizing your home directory or even system can be particularly hard if you have the habit of downloading all kinds of stuff from the internet using your download managers. Often you may find you have downloaded the same mp3, pdf, and epub (and all kinds of other file extensions) and copied it to different directories. This may cause your directories to become cluttered with all kinds of useless duplicated stuff. In this tutorial, you are going to learn how to find and delete duplicate files in Linux using rdfind, fdupes, and rmlint command-line tools, as well as using GUI tools…

Are you diversifying your DBA skillset? My recent job search made one thing clear: the database landscape is broader than just SQL Server and Oracle. More and more companies are seeking experience with open-source platforms like PostgreSQL and MySQL. While I’ve always focused on SQL Server, I recently deployed PostgreSQL for a project and successfully configured, secured, and restored it with data. Beyond that, my experience was limited, so I decided to dig deeper.To build hands-on familiarity, I installed PostgreSQL in my home lab. This post walks through the installation process step-by-step, with a SQL Server DBA lens on what’s familiar…
