It can be difficult to know which models you can actually use with your setup, when you want to work with LLMs on your local setup. The other day I came across **llmfit**, which has a nice interface that lets you estimate which models can run on your computer: github.com/AlexsJones/l... #MLsky

I am about to hand in my Master's thesis in Machine learning. While working on it, the Trump castastrophe has been developing in full motion, and I feel that I don't have any vocabulary to really understand it. Any recommendations for political science theory that I could read post graduatum?

Yeah, I am now on the train back from London, and I have to say that the check-in process in London was complete chaos. I had to walk a good 500m in the queue. The waiting room was also way too crowded and did not have enough seats.

Travelling with Eurostar from Brussels to London at 300 km/h is an absolutely amazing experience. But what's the point of all that speed when you anyway have to check in an hour before departure?

This is not per se an answer to your question, but I have a feeling that I could use some more/better curated feeds. I don't get much ML-related stuff, although 95% of my follows are ML-folks. I do see a lot of Trump-haters (Popular with Friends) and post from news sites (Following).

NEW: Elon Musk’s X has suspended accounts of Turkish opposition groups, suppressing footage of anti-government protests. So, best we share all the footage we can here! This was last night’s massive demo against Erdogan’s government, which follows the arrest of his rival Ekrem İmamoğlu. 🇹🇷 #Turkey

Mr. President: Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, I have a better idea.   In Denmark, everyone is guaranteed health care, college education is free, parents receive 1-year of paid paternity leave & workers don’t make less than $22 an hour.  Let's steal those ideas.

I made a reverse chronological feed of everyone I follow with reposts and replies removed, so only original posts and quote posts appear. There's a lot less rage bait and I enjoy this feed a lot more than the default Following feed. You can make your own using @graze.social like this.
A screen shot from Graze showing the logic blocks used to make this feed. Sorting is by "new" and then the logic requires two conditions: (1) the poster must be in the list of my follows and (2) the reply attribute must be null.
