Disclaimer.
This page covers what the numbers in our writing are, where the sources come from, and what the worked examples represent. It applies to the Blog. Delivered client projects appear in the separate Case Studies section.
Source-check dates vary by article. The most recent recorded check in this collection was on 2026-09-29.
The examples are illustrative
Where a Blog post walks through an illustrative workflow, it is constructed to show how a system behaves. It should not be read as an account of work done for a client or as evidence of a measured result.
Delivered client work appears separately in Case Studies. Diagrams and sample records in those case studies are labelled where they simplify the real system.
Modelled figures are estimates, not measurements
Several posts work through arithmetic: what a system costs to run, where a crossover sits, what a review queue does to throughput. Those numbers are modelled. The assumptions are listed in the open next to the arithmetic so you can substitute your own, and the result is labelled an estimate.
They have not been measured on production hardware, and nothing on this site should be read as a benchmark of ours. Where a post needed original data that does not exist, it says so rather than inventing a figure.
Cited figures come from primary sources, and go stale
Prices, model facts, parameter counts and regulatory provisions are cited to the source that publishes them: a vendor's own pricing or documentation, a model card, the official text of a regulation. Not an aggregator, not a summary, not another article reporting the number.
Source-check dates are recorded by article. Some sources could not be checked automatically, as explained below. Vendor prices and model lineups change; follow the citation before relying on a figure.
Some sources cannot be checked automatically
Some government and legal publishers block automated requests. A citation to such a source is not evidence of a successful automated check; open the primary source and confirm the relevant provision before relying on it.
This is not professional advice
Posts that touch regulation describe what a named provision says and cite it. They are not legal, clinical, financial or compliance advice, and what applies to you depends on your jurisdiction, your sector and your facts. Anything with consequences needs qualified review that this site does not provide.
Every post says where it fails
Articles describe the conditions in which an approach may fail or be unsuitable. Read those limits alongside the proposed method.
