Maybe check out Docker Model Runner -- it's built on llama.cpp (in a good way -- not like Ollama) and handles I think most of what you're looking for? https://www.docker.com/blog/run-llms-locally/ As far

I'm regularly amazed that HuggingFace is able to make money. It does so much good for the world. How solid is its business model? Is it long-term viable? Will they ever "sell out"?

Hey, I made the same decision (except I went with the 24gb model, not the 16gb). The other thing I like about having it on a separate Mac Mini is that it it's completely sandboxed, and I don't log into anything with it on my perso

Another thing that I've thought about doing is to use some sort of computer vision to watch streamers of online games and use STT to capture not just play datasets, but also datasets of their narrated reasoning about why they play what

I believe it's even possible to match up game IDs so that (hypothetically) if both players are using 17 Lands, then you can match up a game from both sides and get full information re: the hands of each player as well. It obviously wou

I've wondered about such things, and it feels like the 17 Lands dataset might be a good place to scrape play-by-play game data between human players. Feels like it could be adapted to a format usable by this structure, and used as a fi

Could consider putting it up as a dataset on Kaggle, perhaps? I would think they'd provide hosting for such things? Archive.org would be another option as a repository for the high-res scans in an accessible / discoverable locatio

That is EXACTLY what came to mind for me. Terrifying thought. Fatigue of maintaining OSS is what was exploited in that takeover attack. Employing a bot army to fan this sort of attack out at scale? Social ddos'ing.

Not to be too much of a devil's advocate (ha!), but I kindof think I _want_ it to have biblical translation data in the dataset. So long as it's not simply copying something like the KJV or ESV into the output, then this should be

My advice? Stop assuming things are good. Lose the sense of shock at evil existing. Assume it's all evil and there is no aspect of it that is not corrupted in some fashion by depravity. Nothing is new. Nothing is pure. We should not de
