Really clean usage of Colab btw. I just had to click a single button and everything ran.

Good job, will join the Discord!

I was just thinking how terrible the website was because it doesn't gracefully degrade. There's no information if you don't successfully execute all the applications associated with the page, just a blank white page with nothing. For a blog post with text and images this is really bad. The text and images should be there in the HTML and then the dynamic elements loaded on top.

Even when I loaded it in the browser I use for banks, etc, I still get errors and the JS doesn't run quite right and I get a "NameError: name 'torch' is not defined", "NameError: name 'FastLanguageModel' is not defined" etc.

  • Oh ye you'll have to click "Runtime" -> "Run All". I think you probably forgot to execute the installation cell.

    Apologies on the website rendering issues :( I normally find Colab to be reasonably responsive, so presumably the Javascript components are breaking :( Much apologies :(

  • It sounds like you are simply not familiar with how Colab works, this has nothing to do with the original work

Oh thanks! I love Colab since it provides a free GPU + you can run the code + you can write a blog post inside it :)
