Which language to use for AWS lambda?
We can write lambda function for deployment to AWS in several languages. Let’s compare the performance of (almost empty) functions written in JavaScript, Python and Golang…
Running copilot-style service locally? Easy!
That’s very exciting! Instead of calling copilot or perplexity.ai and telling all the world what you are after, you can now host similar service on your own PC or laptop!
Testing logical fallacy detection
Recently we have seen several new LLMs were released. Exciting times. Let’s test and see how they perform when detecting logical fallacies.
Requires some experimenting but
Still there are some common approaches how to write good prompts so LLM would not get confused trying to understand what you wand from it.
Synching bookmarks across the laptops & browsers?
I’ve tried different tools and came to conclusion I like floccus the most.
Frequenly needed bits of python code
Sometimes need this but can’t find rightaway. So keeping them all here.
Labelling and training needs some glueing
When I trained object detector AI some time ago - LabelImg was a very helpful tool, but the export from Label Studio to COCO format wasn’t accepted by MMDetection framework..
8 llama3 (Meta+) and 5 phi3 (Microsoft) LLM versions
Testing how models with different number of parameters and quantization are behaving.
Ollama LLM model files take a lot of space
After installing ollama better to reconfigure ollama to store them in new place right away. So after we pull a new model, it doesn’t get downloaded to the old location.
It's so annoying to watch all those ads

Very frequent error message...
After clonning the git repository, do the local repository configuration, particularly set user name and email address.
Let's test the LLMs' speed on GPU vs CPU
Comparing prediction speed of several versions of LLMs: llama3 (Meta/Facebook), phi3 (Microsoft), gemma (Google), mistral(open source) on CPU and GPU.
Let's test logical fallacy detection quality of different LLMs
Here I am comparing several LLM versions: Llama3 (Meta), Phi3 (Microsoft), Gemma (Google), Mistral Nemo(Mistral AI) and Qwen(Alibaba).
Anything can happen in these difficult times
Need to backup the 1) db, 2) filestorage, 3) some other gitea files. Here we go.
Sometimes you just need to add your item there ...
Cropping, resizing and making borders to the images for this blog pushed me to add this frequently used feature to Linux Mint Cinnamon’s context menu.
On the cold winter evening it's so warming to have
