I imagine DOGE uses it

Maybe God was on to something the first time he drowned all of humanity. If only he’d just gotten like 3 or 4 more people.

That is cool! I’ve been wanting I’ve wanted to use a model like this but haven’t really looked.

Are you self hosting the long context llm, of do what are you using?

Context lengths are what kill a lot of my local llm experiments.

Mental and physical health can degrade at any time, driving tests should be every 5 years for everyone.

Also would be good just to keep people up to date in changing road rules too.

If possible convert those files to compressed parquet, and apply sorting and partitioning to them.

I’ve gotten 10-100gb csv files down to 300mb-5gb sizes just by doing that

That makes searching and scanning so much faster, and you can do this all with open source free software like polars and ibis.

Definitely agree with you

From my experience most companies enshitify before the IPO to juice the metrics and boost their valuations (I.e. their payout).

The fact that they aren’t doing that yet that is a positive sign.

But founders aren’t immune to suffering from billionaire brain rot and years of exposure to the constant sycophancy and wealth seems to turn nearly everyone into a greed driven money soulless vampire.

I hate that every product has added “for AI” to their name and homepage.

I guess the investor are asking for it, but as a customer I can’t tell what products actually work for my use case anymore.

I use garage locally for low stakes stuff and so far it works as advertised.

I get ~300mb/s on large files from fast SSD, small files are quick too.

System seems very stable and running in docker only uses ~18mb idle.

Visually this is gorgeous

Really nice work!

God is out mowing the cosmic lawn and left the universe running unattended for a few thousand years.

This looks great.

Lord knows I have to make enough mermaid renderings of these UML diagrams.

Will be giving it a try

Passwords are one I happily pay for someone else to worry about

That’s about my most valuable digital data

No, not I don’t self host my email which is where a lot of the trouble comes from

I don’t remember having any issues with it ever. That was a concern so I did slowly transition to the custom domain

That’s pretty much my setup, it is not super hard to get working, it’s basically just copying and pasting the magic numbers they give you

Three R’s to deGoogling: Reduce, replace, remove.

I would say start by changing your browser and search engine (lots of options out there today), and then set up your own domain for email hosting so you can try different providers.

There isn’t another YouTube with all that content out there, so that one is tough, but you don’t have to 100% de google, 50% is still good. 15% is still good.

Weirdly I’m polite to all LLMs, but Gemini sets me off and I end up yelling at it.

Open webui lets you install a ton of different search providers out of the box, but you do need sn API key for most and I haven’t vetted them

I’m trying to get Kagi to work with Phi4 and not having success.

And accusing it of being a gang member no less.

I would vote no for this as a user

I hate how many discord notifications and emails I get about this, I don’t want to see it on other platforms. It’s potentially way too spammy of a feature.

I’m new/planning to get more into self hosting

I have a crappy NAS in the basement I archive to and copy my borg repos to.

Then I pay for a Dropbox style cloud service and I copy my borg archives there. It’s kind of janky but it’s cheap and works.
