A Coding Implementation to Parsing, Analyzing, Visualizing, and Fine-Tuning Agent Reasoning Traces Using the lambda/hermes-agent-reasoning-traces Dataset

In this tutorial, we explore the lambda/hermes-agent-reasoning-traces dataset to understand how agent-based models think, use tools, and generate responses across multi-turn conversations. We start by loading and inspecting the dataset, examining its structure, categories, and conversational format...

A New NVIDIA Research Shows Speculative Decoding in NeMo RL Achieves 1.8× Rollout Generation Speedup at 8B and Projects 2.5× End-to-End Speedup at 235B

A new paper from NVIDIA Research integrates speculative decoding directly into NeMo RL with a vLLM backend, delivering lossless rollout acceleration at both 8B and projected 235B model scales. The post A New NVIDIA Research Shows Speculative Decoding in NeMo RL Achieves 1.8× Rollout Generation...

Sightings

/elsewhere/sightings/ I have a new camera (a Canon R6 Mark II) so I'm taking a lot more photos of birds. I share my best wildlife photos on iNaturalist, and based on yesterday's successful prototype I decided to add those to my blog. I built this feature on my phone using Claude Code for web, as an...
