zenml VS Zulip

Currently, you can see the integrations we support here and it includes a lot of tools in your list. I also feel I agree with your categorization (it is exactly the categorization we use in our docs pretty much). Perhaps one thing missing might be feature stores but that is a minor thing in the bigger picture.

GitHub: https://github.com/zenml-io/zenml

Hey everyone! At ZenML, we released today an integration that allows users to train and deploy models from pipelines in a simple way. I wanted to ask the community here whether the example we showcased makes sense in a real-world setting:

As of early March 2022 this is the new CI pipeline that we use here at ZenML and the feedback from my colleagues -- fellow engineers -- has been very positive overall. I am sure there will be tweaks, changes and refactorings in the future, but for now, this feels Zen.

ZenML is hiring for a Design Engineer.

ZenML is an extensible, open-source MLOps framework to create production-ready machine learning pipelines. Built for data scientists, it has a simple, flexible syntax, is cloud- and tool-agnostic, and has interfaces/abstractions that are catered towards ML workflows.

We’re looking for a Design Engineer with a multi-disciplinary skill-set who can take over the look and feel of the ZenML experience. ZenML is a tool designed for developers and we want to delight them from the moment they land on our web page, to after they start using it on their machines. We would like a consistent design experience across our many touchpoints (including the [landing page](https://zenml.io), the [docs](https://docs.zenml.io), the [blog](https://blog.zenml.io), the [podcast](https://podcast.zenml.io), our social media, the product itself which is a [python package](https://github.com/zenml-io/zenml) etc).

A lot of this job is about communicating complex ideas in a beautiful way. You could be a developer or a non-coding designer, full time or part-time, employee or freelance. We are not so picky about the exact nature of this role. If you feel like you are a visually creative designer, and are willing to get stuck in the details of technical topics like MLOps, we can’t wait to work with you!

The best place to see MLflow Tracking and ZenML being used together in a simple use case is our example that showcases the integration. It builds on the quickstart example, but shows how you can add in MLflow to handle the tracking. In order to enable MLflow to track artifacts inside a particular step, all you need is to decorate the step with @enable_mlflow and then to specify what you want logged within the step. Here you can see how this is employed in a model training step that uses the autolog feature I mentioned above:

Zulip — Real-time chat with a unique email-like threading model. The free plan includes 10,000 messages of search history and File storage up to 5 GB. also, it provides a self-hostable open-source version.

(1) Zulip Chat - https://zulip.com/ - seems to be reasonably popular, but more people should know about it

I’ve been using it for over 5 years now [1], and it’s as good as ever. It’s way faster than any other chat app I’ve used. It has a good UI and conversation model. It has a simple and functional API that lets me curl threads and write blog posts based on them.

(only problem is that I Ctrl-+ in my browser to make the font bigger – I think it’s too dense for most people)

(2) re2c regex to state machine compiler - https://re2c.org

A gem from the 90’s, which people have done a great job maintaining and improving (getting Go and Rust target support in the last few years). I started using it in 2016, and used for a new program a few months ago. I came to the conclusion that it should have been built into C, because C has shitty string processing – and Ken Thompson both invented C AND brought regular languages to computing !!

In comparison, treesitter lexers are very low level, fiddly, and error prone. I recently saw dozens of ad hoc fixes to the tree-sitter-bash lexer, which is unsurprising if you look at the structure of the code (manually crawling through backslashes and braces in C).

https://github.com/tree-sitter/tree-sitter-bash/blob/master/...

These fixes are definitely appreciated, but I think it indicates a problem with the model itself.

A few more truly in the vibe of open source projects not advertising their hosting providers: https://plane.so/ , https://element.io/ , https://www.loomio.com/ , https://zulip.com/ , and it keeps going... Very few open source projects, in the FOSS sense, are advertising their hosting provider.

I was so excited to see this happen!

I'm not a customer of yours, but your blog posts inspired me a lot. Your journey through quitting caffeine is a great and heartening read.

I've got two things to say;

1) Will you consider source-availabling the web portal (app.keygen.sh) too? Some enterprises could use it for easy management/support for custoner's licenses. Although now that I think about it, it could also discourage custom, more suitable implementations for each use-case... I'm torn on this one. I would like to see it available on GitHub too just out of curiosity too. It's very beautiful.

2) For a team + customers' chat, I cannot recommend Zulip enough. It's a joy to use and has the most innovative chat system I've ever seen. https://zulip.com

I hope your business keeps prospering!
