We just released Wikipedia Amharic on Hugging Face – thousands of Wikipedia articles translated to Amharic using our Aleph (፩) model. It's one of the largest Amharic knowledge bases out there (55k rows). Parallel corpus, full metadata, Apache 2.0 licensed. Useful for anyone building Amharic NLP models, translation systems, or just needing quality Amharic training data. https://huggingface.co/datasets/addisai/wikipedia-amharic Free to use commercially.

Things Feel Hard Until You Actually Start In tech, many things sound difficult long before we ever try them. Before learning Docker, I already believed it would be complicated not because I had worked with it, but because of how people talked about it. Just hearing terms like image, container, and DevOps workflows made it feel heavy. But once I started learning Docker and using it in a project, it was far more understandable than I expected. Most of the confusion faded once I stopped listening and started doing. This isn’t only about Docker. The same thing happens for other terms. From the outside, things look overwhelming. Once you’re inside them, they turn into clear steps you can work through. The real issue is that many juniors never reach that point. They stop at the idea of difficulty. We often hear experienced engineers talk in advanced terms, and we forget that they also started by not understanding much. Fear usually comes from: not starting, overthinking, and comparing yourself to people who are further along So the solution is to start even if things are not clear yet. If you’re a junior: don’t let technical language scare you don’t wait until everything feels clear start small and learn as you go You don’t need full clarity to begin. You gain clarity by starting. Most projects look difficult until you sit down and actually work on them. That’s where learning really happens. @edemy251

You can use AI on your meta interview 😯 @R0bstack

I've recently open-sourced some of the early models I've been experimenting with while building Addis AI - there are some models with exact training params and training details... along with our amharic tuned whisper models that can actually run on your phone (more on that in the coming weeks) But feel free on experimenting, seeing how they work and shoot me your feedback. Everything Is on hugging face https://huggingface.co/b1n1yam

Why do they want the females 🤔

I just implemented my first Logistic Regression model. I took the dataset from Kaggle, cleaned the dqta, and trained the model. It's getting more interesting day by day. https://colab.research.google.com/drive/13kj_sMKNwepo6FgKa_5VcYFGJuOoK9Al?usp=drive_link @R0bstack @R0bstack
