The Types of Dimensions in a Star Schema, and How to Use Them
Dimensional modeling hinges on understanding dimensions—one of its two core object types. But dimensions aren't monolithic; they encompass several distinct varieties, each serving a specific purpose in structuring data for analysis. This post explores these types, detailing how to effectively leverage them within a star schema to unlock deeper insights. We’ll clarify their roles in providing context and enabling powerful data exploration.

Loop Engineering for RAG: The Small Loops Inside Each Step, the Big Loops Across the Pipeline
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems rely on core components delivering consistent results, but what happens when those components falter? Loop Engineering addresses precisely that—the often-overlooked work performed *between* those core steps. This first installment of Enterprise Document Intelligence explores the critical control surfaces—trigger, termination, and recovery—that ensure a RAG pipeline remains productive, even when faced with retrieval misses or API timeouts. Discover how these “small loops” safeguard against common failures, building on insights from articles like "How to Perform Effective Project Management with AI."
New Fable5/Opus4.8 harness called "Schema" claims 99% on ARC-3 [R]
Introducing Schema, a new Fable5/Opus4.8 harness achieving impressive results on the ARC-AGI-3 benchmark. Schema attains 99% accuracy with Claude Opus 4.8 and 95.35% with GPT-5.6 Sol—all without modifying model weights. This innovative harness refines the interaction process, optimizing how observations inform models, predictions are tested, and plans are executed. A fixed fallback rule prioritizes Opus 4.8 and Sol, ensuring robust performance across all games, as noted by ARC Prize.
