Bluh, I wish I had time to fuss with details of model conversion and stuff. I'm trying to see how small a model I could get to do function calling. Tried messing with dolphin-phi but it's a bit too dumb. There's this "adapter" over it that's tuned for function calling, but it's in the `safetensors` format whereas I need it to be in GGUF. 🤷

Woot. Getting my work/life balance back in shape and more meaningfully scheduling what I'm going to work on. Spending some time to orient myself is paying off. Honestly I'm glad to be a sapient being able to introspect and self guide.

It’s fucked how the word "crutch" has turned into this negative thing, like it means the same as "excuse."

For a lot of people, actual crutches are what help them get around and live their lives.

We shouldn't use words in ways that make people feel bad for needing help.

"Car makers told to ditch distracting touchscreens: Safety body will penalize models that don't have simple button controls"

Glad this nonsense stops, haptic feedback for the win.

Sacrificed my night to the productivity gods. The output is the beginnings of the "ipti" CLI which is a tool for authoring / reading databases based on my impl of the Prolly Tree spec.

It's not ready for release yet but this will make it easier to integrate into pipelines with bash or other languages without having to touch golang directly.

Indexer library here: github.com/RangerMauve/ipld-pr

Note I don't have a standard for replicating over the network so it currently reads/writes CAR files

I'm back! Instance ran out of space 4 days ago and I managed to recover from it again. :P Every time it's like "will this be when my database is fully corrupted?" and so far on attempt #4 I'm still recovering.

Set up some automation and a failsafe that can free up a bit of data on the volume in case I run out again. See you in a few months when I run out again. 😂

Tried debugging some issues by disabling my ad blocker and youtube is absolutely unusable without it.
Just non stop unskippable ads.

Hi everyone! The games for blind gamers 3 game jam has ended! But that means we have 27 games that want YOUR feedback and submissions! Give these creators some love! itch.io/jam/games-for-blind-ga #GameDev #Blind #accessibility

Anyone want an indexed content addressed database oracle for their use case?

One of our meow meow beasts has gotten in the habit kf waking us up by giving my partner cat tongue kisses untilt they wake up and pet her 😅 It's cute but also I could use the extra sleep before my alarm

endatabas.com/ is a pretty interesting new database: immutable, time travel queries, schemaless (it supports JSON-style nested documents) but queryable via SQL. More notes here:

5 hours into playing Cloudpunk and I accidentally figured out I could access the world map the whole time and could see more than just the minimap to navigate 😝

Sadly despits my willpowers insistance on working late yet another night my body and mind refuse to focus on code.

High key I think corporate advertising is one of the biggest plagues on humanity in the last 100 years. A lot of the awful AI shit we're seeing stems from it as well as a lot of the shady data collection.

I feel it'd be for the collective consciousness if this concept were banned entirely or at least stunted to the point it's not commercially viable.

Broke: Licensing personal projects as AGPL so mega-co's can't use them.

Woke; Writing personal projects in C, so mega-co's can't use them.

@hank Yeah I think my main discomfort ks with apps assuming they can own my entire screen. I prefer giving them little corners to live in or stack on each other. Mobile breakpoints are sk handy for increasing data density for example
