Shadow DOM is a web standard enabling encapsulation of DOM subtrees in web components. It allows developers to create isolated scopes for CSS and JavaScript within a document, preventing conflicts with other parts of the page. Shadow DOM's key feature is its "shadow root," serving as a boundary between the component's internal structure and the rest of the document.

For a side project, I turned to Wikipedia tables as a data source. Despite their inconsistencies, they proved quite useful. I explored three methods for extracting this data: - Google Sheets: Easily scrape tables using the =importHTML function. - Pandas and Python: Use pd.read_html to load tables into dataframes. - Beautiful Soup and Python: Handle more complex scraping, such as extracting data from both tables and their preceding headings. These methods simplify data extraction, though some cleanup is needed due to inconsistencies in the tables. Overall, leveraging Wikipedia as a free and accessible resource made data collection surprisingly easy. With a little effort to clean and organize the data, it's possible to gain valuable insights for any project.

With past Llama models, Meta developed them for ourselves and then released them, but didn’t focus much on building a broader ecosystem. We’re taking a different approach with this release. We’re building teams internally to enable as many developers and partners as possible to use Llama, and we’re actively building partnerships so that more companies in the ecosystem can offer unique functionality to their customers as well. I believe the Llama 3.1 release will be an inflection point in the industry where most developers begin to primarily use open source, and I expect that approach to only grow from here. I hope you’ll join us on this journey to bring the benefits of AI to everyone in the world.
