I’m going to look at Simon Willison’s llm command line tool again as part of my toolchain for the project I’m working on. Sometimes the shiny objects (PrivateGPT) are more of a distraction than a solution.
Had a somewhat frustrating day working with PrivateGPT. I don’t think it’s going to the answer I’m looking for.
Design issues in FeedLand blogrolls. I would really love to have the same blogroll on my Micro.blog site.
Plan to continue working with Ollama and PrivateGPT today. I want to figure out the best way to fine tune what documents my LLMs return based on the content of a control document. Basically there are 15 questions that have answers in a folder full of 126 source pdf documents but so far the LLM is not being consistant.
And… the Penguins miss the playoffs for the second year in a row. ☹️
Last night I started working with a project called PrivateGPT. This project enables me to “chat” with my files using local LLMs served by Ollama which is my favorite LLM tool to date.
Just updated my blogs in Electric Drummer with the new blogroll settings that Dave Winer has just released and it worked perfectly! You can see it at either here or here. I’m hoping that sometime in the near future I can implement this blogroll on my micro.blog site.
We had some loud thunderstorms around 1:00 AM this morning! I love the sound of thunder and trains at night! ⚡️🚂
Beautiful and sunny Sunday morning!🌞
With tonight’s loss I think the Penguins season is most likely done. They don’t control their own destiny anymore and only have 2 games left. Stranger things have happend but I’m not counting on them making the playoffs this year.
Still a lot of wind this morning but at least it’s stopped raining and the sun is out! ☀️
Extremely windy today! I actually like the sound it makes as it whistles through my office window!!💨
I think I might start looking to see if Noah is building a new ark! 💧
Good morning sunshine! The earth says hello! ☀️
Starting work on a new AI project that I hope to use local LLMs on. 🤞🏻
Beautiful morning! Going up to the mid 70s today! 😀
Solar eclipse day! Hope you have some safe glasses and a clear sky! 🌘
Cold morning but it’s going to warm up fairly quickly!
Finally starting to warm up and feel like spring! 🌷

Today is the Pirates home opener and the current temperature is 38°! Feels more like football weather! 🥶
Trying to get a handle on my “imposter syndrome” feeling this morning…
Woke up to snow flurries! WTF!!
Airtable uses Javascript for all of its scripting interfaces but their Web API can be accessed by almost any language. I built a test using Python to call their API and it worked very well. I still find that Python is my favorite language to use! 🐍
Started looking into Airtable once again as they have added a slew of new features since I last played around with it including an AI extension. I use a personal Airtable base daily to track bills but things are definitely different with the Airtable platform now.
We survived the onslaught of storms yesterday even including a tornado watch! 🌪️ Now we have to deal with flooding issues in some parts of the area! 🌊
Yikes! Thunderstorms with lots of lightning, heavy rain, and flash flood warning! ⛈️⚡️
Just got back in town! Had a great time with the grandkids in Maryland! 😍
Won’t be online the rest of the day while traveling.
Heading to Maryland tomorrow to see the out of town grandkids.😀
I love using Electric Drummer to update my Micro.blog site!
