A place to noodle...
Still fighting left ear problems so I'm going to stop by the local MedExpress today.#
We had tornado warnings screaming on our phones at 1:30 this morning but nothing happened! Thank god! It's a beautiful and sunny day now! ☀️#
We're supposed to get the tail end of the massive storms hitting the midwest! ⛈️ #
Still fighting an ear ache and now both ears feel stuffed like I'm driving through mountains! 😔 #
Woke up with an ear ache in my left ear. I wouldn't be surprised if I contributed to it's arrival by watching my grandkids play baseball in a could drizzle yesterday! 😩 #
So much for that summertime feeling! Chilly and rainy this Saturday morning! #
Another hot day in the burgh! ☀️⛈️#
Feels like Summertime! Always loved Janis Joplin! 😎#
Very disturbing what is happening on college campuses. 😔 #
Bonnie's concert was superb last night! Her opening act was Maia Sharp who was excellent as well! #
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!☀️ #
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! 🖥️ #
Going to be a busy and hopefully productive day! 🤞🏻 #
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° 🥶 #
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. ☹️ #
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! ⚡️🚂#
Beautiful and sunny Sunday morning!🌞 #
