Hello OrlandoJUG folks!
Join us for an Open Spaces meeting this month, hosted by your JUG Leader, Mike. Open Spaces is a style of meeting in which everyone gets the chance to contribute. Mike has had many meaningful and enjoyable experiences over the years both leading and participating in Open Spaces meetings.
This will be a pot luck dinner style meeting with sponsors Cambridge Web Design, www.cambridgeweb.ie and another sponsor TBA. So, please bring a tasty dish and or beverage if you can. Don't worry if you can't bring anything. Just bring some energy to participate and an appetite.
Please RSVP here on this event announcement (you must be a Codetown member to see the RSVP option here, otherwise it's invisible!)
And, please help us by spreading the word about these meetings, and invite some friends. The Codetown invite feature us a great way to spread the word. Also, be sure to join the OrlandoJUG group here on Codetown to be notified about all the OrlandoJUG activities.
Here is a description of Open Spaces style meeting coordination: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Space_Technology

As always, I hope to see you there!
All the best,
Mike Levin
OrlandoJUG Chairman

Codetown is a social network. It's got blogs, forums, groups, personal pages and more! You might think of Codetown as a funky camper van with lots of compartments for your stuff and a great multimedia system, too! Best of all, Codetown has room for all of your friends.

Stephen Batifol discusses building and optimizing self-hosted, multimodal RAG systems. He breaks down vector search, nearest neighbor indexes (FLAT, IVF, HNSW), and the critical role of choosing the right embedding model. He then explains vLLM inference optimization (paged attention, quantization) and uses Mistral's Pixtral to detail multimodal large language model architecture.
