A place to noodle...
Looking forward to dinner and the Bonnie Raitt concert tonight! I've probably seen her in concert over 30 times since the 70s! 😀 #
A lot of running around today!#
Going to feel like summer the next few days with highs in the 80s! 😎 #
The sun is really bright this morning coming through my side window in my office!☀ī¸ #
Client loved the progress made with using local LLM and critical document identification. My two favorite tools are Ollama and Simon WIllison's LLM. I love working in the terminal! đŸ–Ĩī¸ #
Going to be a busy and hopefully productive day! 🤞đŸģ #
Primary day here in Pennsylvania but I'm registered as an Independent so I don't get to vote! Stupid! 😠 #
Good morning America, how are ya! 😎 #
Such strange weather! We had 80s last week and today it's 40° đŸĨļ #
Last night I finally realized the embeddings model you choose has a great impact on your RAG workflow and the quality of the answers returned from the LLM. A lot of testing today and tomorrow.#
With the release of llama 3 from Meta yesterday afternoon the local llm capabilities have gotten more powerful!#
I'm going to look at Simon Willison's llm command line tool again as part of my toolchain for the project I'm working on. Sometimes the shiny objects (PrivateGPT) are more of a distraction than a solution.#
Had a somewhat frustrating day working with PrivateGPT. I don't think it's going to the answer I'm looking for.#
Design issues in FeedLand blogrolls. I would really love to have the same blogroll on my Micro.blog site. #
Plan to continue working with Ollama and PrivateGPT today. I want to figure out the best way to fine tune what documents my LLMs return based on the content of a control document. Basically there are 15 questions that have answers in a folder full of 126 source pdf documents but so far the LLM is not being consistant. #
And... the Penguins miss the playoffs for the second year in a row. ☚ī¸ #
Last night I started working with a project called PrivateGPT. This project enables me to "chat" with my files using local LLMs served by Ollama which is my favorite LLM tool to date. #
Just updated my blogs in Electric Drummer with the new blogroll settings that Dave Winer has just released and it worked perfectly! You can see it at either here or here. I'm hoping that sometime in the near future I can implement this blogroll on my micro.blog site.#
We had some loud thunderstorms around 1:00 AM this morning! I love the sound of thunder and trains at night! ⚡ī¸đŸš‚#
Beautiful and sunny Sunday morning!🌞 #
With tonight's loss I think the Penguins season is most likely done. They don't control their own destiny anymore and only have 2 games left. Stranger things have happend but I'm not counting on them making the playoffs this year.#
Still a lot of wind this morning but at least it's stopped raining and the sun is out! ☀ī¸ #
Extremely windy today! I actually like the sound it makes as it whistles through my office window!!💨 #
I think I might start looking to see if Noah is building a new ark! 💧#
Good morning sunshine! The earth says hello! ☀ī¸#
Starting work on a new AI project that I hope to use local LLMs on. 🤞đŸģ#
Beautiful morning! Going up to the mid 70s today! 😀 #
Solar eclipse day! Hope you have some safe glasses and a clear sky! 🌘 #
Cold morning but it's going to warm up fairly quickly!#
Finally starting to warm up and feel like spring! 🌷 #
Today's quote:#
Be curious, not judgmental. -- Walt Whitman#
Today is the Pirates home opener and the current temperature is 38°! Feels more like football weather! đŸĨļ #
Trying to get a handle on my "imposter syndrome" feeling this morning...#
Woke up to snow flurries! WTF!!#
