This is the first one.</p> <p>In my studies I run research and tests to prove a path. It's useful knowledge and I don't like keeping it to myself: I wish someone had already done this and shared it. That's how I found the digital garden.</p> <p>It's a site of linked notes that the author keeps tending, and that accepts unfinished notes and shows it. The term goes back to Mark Bernstein (1998) and was picked up by <a href="https://hapgood.us/2015/10/17/the-garden-and-the-stream-a-technopastoral/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Mike Caulfield</a> (2015), <a href="https://tomcritchlow.com/2018/10/10/of-gardens-and-wikis/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Tom Critchlow</a> (2018), <a href="https://joelhooks.com/digital-garden/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Joel Hooks</a> (2019) and <a href="https://maggieappleton.com/garden-history" rel="noopener noreferrer">Maggie Appleton</a> (2020).</p> <p>Mine is about RAG: I had Claude test, on my 72 RPG notes, whether a RAG is worth building or Grep is enough. Each note is an answer, with a badge showing how well proven it is, plus a script to measure it in your own case. In short: accuracy ties, and the quota cost depends on how you use it. </p> <div class="crayons-card c-embed text-styles text-styles--secondary"> <div class="c-embed__content"> <div class="c-embed__body flex items-center justify-between"> <a href="https://arthurfigg.github.io/jardim-rag/?lang=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="c-link fw-bold flex items-center"> <span class="mr-2">arthurfigg.github.io</span> </a> </div> </div> </div> <p>Open mine and build yours. If you do, leave the link in the comments!</p> <p>🇧🇷</p> <p>Vou criar jardins digitais com o que eu estudo. Este é o primeiro.</p> <p>Nos meus estudos eu faço pesquisas e testes para provar um caminho. É conhecimento útil e não gosto de guardar só para mim: eu mesmo queria que alguém já tivesse feito isso e deixado disponível. Foi assim que descobri o jardim digital.</p> <p>É um site de notas ligadas entre si, que o autor continua cuidando, e que aceita nota inacabada e mostra isso. O termo vem de Mark Bernstein (1998) e foi retomado por <a href="https://hapgood.us/2015/10/17/the-garden-and-the-stream-a-technopastoral/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Mike Caulfield</a> (2015), <a href="https://tomcritchlow.com/2018/10/10/of-gardens-and-wikis/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Tom Critchlow</a> (2018), <a href="https://joelhooks.com/digital-garden/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Joel Hooks</a> (2019) e <a href="https://maggieappleton.com/garden-history" rel="noopener noreferrer">Maggie Appleton</a> (2020).</p> <p>O meu é sobre RAG: mandei o Claude testar, nas minhas 72 notas de RPG, se vale montar um RAG ou se basta o Grep. Cada nota é uma resposta, com um selo que mostra o quanto está provada, e há um roteiro para você medir no seu caso. Resumo: o acerto empata, e o gasto de cota depende do uso. </p> <div class="crayons-card c-embed text-styles text-styles--secondary"> <div class="c-embed__content"> <div class="c-embed__body flex items-center justify-between"> <a href="https://arthurfigg.github.io/jardim-rag/" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="c-link fw-bold flex items-center"> <span class="mr-2">arthurfigg.github.io</span> </a> </div> </div> </div> <p>Abra o meu e crie o seu.
