[Turn 1599] Assistant: A good starting point for estimating the retry delay in the exponential backoff approach is to begin with a relatively short initial delay and then gradually increase the delay with each retry. This helps to avoid ove…

- A small random jitter is added to the delay to avoid synchronized retries from multiple clients. - The loop continues until a successful response is received or the maximum number of retries is reached. ### Additional Consideration…

[2025-12-13 14:58] omega [bot]: Your latest code snippet for retrying on 429 is on the right track, but it doesn’t currently handle 502 errors explicitly, which you’re also encountering heavily. Here’s a refined Python retry function that:…

[2025-12-13 14:58] omega [bot]: The persistent 502 errors during your code execution show the upstream server isn't responding properly—usually a temporary or configuration issue. Your retry with exponential backoff for 429 is good; extend …

- The `save_model` function retries the save operation up to `max_retries` times. - The `wait_time` is calculated using an exponential backoff factor, which increases with each retry attempt. - A small random jitter (`randint(0, 10…
