Memorial Day weekend is upon us! The unofficial start of summer! π
Just discovered that Target carries the Stream Deck Neo which I have been looking at for awhile now. And I also discovered I had over $15 in rewards at Target so I pulled the trigger on the $99 Neo and got it for $84. π I use 2 Stream Decks already but I really like the sleekness of the Neo.
Another hot day with thunder storms but thankfully no tornados in the forecast! πͺοΈ
I’m really thankful for whole house air conditioning! It’s been really hot the last few days and working without air would be difficult to say the least! π
Another scorcher in the burgh today! π₯΅
Going to be pushing 90 the next few days! That’s hot!
Going for my first bike ride of the spring later this afternoon! π
The young Pirates pitching phenom Paul Skenes is sure fun to watch! βΎοΈ
Going to be a rainy day! βοΈ
Decided to start an outline that is private where I can document my trials and tribulations with programming large language models with python.
Beautiful sunny morning! π
Another round of uproar at OpenAI just after announcing new stuff with the cheif scientist and co-founder Ilya Sutskever resigning! WTF!
Going to spend a lot of time today (hopefully) working with the new Mac ChatGPT app along with the looking at the API for the new GPT 4o model.
I was able to get access to the new Mac ChatGPT app and it’s really sweet! Helped me quickly write a cli app this evening!
Do you have the same problem I do where there are so many things that interest you that you constantly jump from one to another without accomplishing anything? I am trying to expand my knowledge about the python programming language but I keep getting pulled into the AI/LLM excitement which fascinates me but doesn’t help me learn the fundamentals of python. I’m using python a lot with my LLM experimentation but this causes me to neglect the basics I want to learn. Sigh.
Going to warm up into the upper 70s this week! π
One of my favorite quotes:
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming,
“Wow! What a ride!”
- Hunter S. Thompson
Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful mothers in the world! π
I’m hoping this weekend I get some time to look deeper into groq.com and they’re api to see if I can hook it up to drummer. In a perfect world I can hook up my local ollama server to drummer as well but haven’t had any luck so far.
Sunny morning but thunderstoms are on the schedule this afternoon. We had hail last evening! βοΈ
So it turns out my ear ache(s) were not from a cold but from very packed in wax! π± It took the nurse assistant about 90 minutes to loosen and clear out the was in my left ear. Gross! But I can ear normally once again! π
Couldn’t get into MedExpress yesterday as a walk-in so I made an actual appointment for this morning. π€π»
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! βοΈ
We’re supposed to get the tail end of the massive storms hitting the midwest! βοΈ
Still fighting an ear ache and now both ears feel stuffed like I’m driving through mountains! π
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! π©
