  • Publication number: 20240346023
    Abstract: A device detects a trigger to toggle from a local mode to a query mode, the trigger detected based on input into a notebook interface relating to a dataframe. The device receives input of a query into a cell within the notebook interface, the query relating to the dataframe, and determines, based on having entered the query mode, to combine the query with a prior query from a prior cell within the notebook interface, resulting in generation of an combined query. The device executes the combined query with respect to a data warehouse, receives a command to perform a function with respect to the combined query, and determines, based on characteristics of the command, to execute the command using memory of the notebook interface. The device outputs, using the notebook interface, a graphical representation of results of the command, the results informed by the combined query.

  • Publication number: 20240256228
    Abstract: An application receives, in a code cell connected to a plurality of cells in a graph structure, a natural language command to generate code. The application determines, using directed edges of the graph structure, a set of precedent cells from which the code cell depends. The application inputs into a machine learning model the natural language command and values from the set of precedent cells pertaining to the code, and receives, as output from the machine learning model, generated code. The application updates the code cell to include the generated code.

  • Publication number: 20240256588
    Abstract: An application receives a natural language query from a user into a cell of a notebook environment and responsively determines a set of precedent cells and a profile of the user. The application determines a portion of the data warehouse graph that corresponds to the natural language query. The application primes the large language model with priming context that is based on the portion of the data warehouse graph that corresponds to the natural language query, the precedent cells from which the code cell depends, and the profile of the user, the priming resulting in a primed large language model. The application inputs the natural language query into the primed large language model and receives, as output from the large language model, a response to the natural language query. The application provides the response to the natural language query to the user.

  • Patent number: 10246158
    Abstract: Provided is an accessory for a self-balancing board having two lateral foot-deck ends, each being coupled to a motor that drives a wheel in response to its orientation. The foot-deck has at least one sensor that is triggered when a rider is in a riding position thereon. The accessory includes a chassis, at least one travel surface-contacting element, a seat, and an engagement structure that releasably engages the self-balancing board. At least one sensor-triggering element is actuatable between an idle position and a triggering position, wherein the at least one sensor-triggering element triggers the at least one sensor. At least one control member actuates at least one of the engagement structure and the at least one sensor-triggering element to control the orientation of the lateral foot-deck ends. At least one manually actuatable actuator actuates the at least one sensor-triggering element between the idle position and the triggering position.

  • Patent number: 8622462
    Abstract: The disclosure comprises a pair of inflatable substantially inelastic lobes. A single lobe can be mounted on each of the rear trailer doors of a standard tractor-trailer unit. Each lobe can be inflated or deployed to provide an aerodynamic substantially planar contour extending rearwardly of the rear end of the vehicle. The aerodynamic shape of the lobes with stable and substantially planar external surfaces for air to pass over can be created by a series of internal cords and flag sets extending substantially horizontally and vertically in an array from one side of the lobe to the other side of each lobe. When the lobes are deflated, the trailer doors can be opened and latched to the side of the trailer in a conventional manner.

  • Publication number: 20060124360
    Abstract: A borehole network including first and second end surface locations and at least one intermediate surface location interconnected by a subterranean path, and a method for connecting a subterranean path between a first borehole including a directional section and a second borehole including a directional section. A directional drilling component is drilled in at least one of the directional sections to obtain a required proximity between the first and second boreholes. An intersecting component is drilled, utilizing magnetic ranging techniques, from one directional section to provide a borehole intersection between the first and second boreholes, thereby connecting the subterranean path.

  • Patent number: 6876533
    Abstract: A surge suppressor includes a surge suppression device. A novel current limiting fuse design prevents current flow when the surge suppression device fails. A thermal fusing device is configured to prevent current flow when excessive heat is generated in the surge suppression device. A novel enclosure is used for containing the surge suppression device, over current fuse and thermal fuse. The foregoing and other objects, features and advantages of the invention will become more readily apparent from the following detailed description of a preferred embodiment of the invention which proceeds with reference to the accompanying drawings.

  • Patent number: 5823610
    Abstract: Drag reducing apparatus for the rear end of a road vehicle such as a truck or trailer comprises a storage container in which an inflatable bladder is rolled on a support shaft for displacement relative to the container between a stored position and a deployed position in which the inflatable bladder covers the rear surface of the vehicle and is inflatable to provide an aerodynamic contour extending rearwardly of the vehicle. The inflatable bladder is extendable and retractable relative to the container by cables having ends attached to the container shaft and opposite ends connected to a cable shaft, whereby rotation of the latter pulls the inflatable bladder from the container and rotation of the container shaft in the opposite direction rewinds the bladder into the container for storage. Guide and support tracks and a spring clip arrangement hold the periphery of the bladder against the rear surface of the vehicle when the bladder is in its deployed position.
