Around December 2017, Google sent me a free Acer Chromebook 11 N7 (C731). Well, technically they sent me a free Chromebook cover first, with the promise of a Chromebook to follow and only caveat (or request) being my time to listen to their Google Cloud Platform sales pitch. Acer Chromebook 11 N7 C731 sent to me along with Google cloud marketing bits. Screen shows my product page(set by me). Of course, the other caveat may be receiving a NSA bugged computer; but hey who doesn't want a free computer?

How I run LLMs locally

A HN user asked me0 how I run LLMs locally with some specific questions, I’m documenting it here for everyone. Before I begin I would like to credit the thousands or millions of unknown artists, coders and writers upon whose work the Large Language Models(LLMs) are trained, often without due credit or compensation. Get Started r/LocalLLaMA subreddit1 & Ollama blog2 are great places to get started with running LLMs locally.

Reflecting

I know there’s been a lot of frustration directed at me specifically. Some of it, I believe, is misplaced—but I also understand where it’s coming from. The passing of Pope Francis has deeply impacted me. While I still disagree with the Church on many issues, he was the Pope who broke the mold in so … Continue reading Reflecting →
