It’s time to write my weekly journal entry.
LeetCode
I completed five problems and stopped at problem number 155. Everything following that consists of paid problems. 155 is the last problem you can do before encountering any paid content. I read what people are saying online about the paid problems and saw that their content has, of course, been made publicly available on third-party websites 🧐
Personal Website
In one of my previous posts, I mentioned that I was thinking about Search Engine Optimization (SEO) for my website. This week, I finally decided to start. I am building a new static version of the site without React.js. Now I’m using this framework: https://gowebexamples.com/templates/. Additionally, every post will receive a title generated by an LLM. The code for the new titles is already ready. Originally, posts in SmartProgress do not have titles; they only have a day number in the header (e.g., Day 1, Day 2… Day 300, and so on), so I need to create headers for them. Meanwhile, the old version of my website is still available at https://hinst.github.io/. Take a look while you can, because I will delete the old version once the new one is ready 😤
Local LLMs
I’ve been trying to install various models in LM Studio, and for some reason, I used to think that the maximum model size that would run properly on my home computer was 10 GB. In reality, you can run a 40 GB model without any major issues. At the same time, the output speed will be about 1 word per second. I also found a useful app called ChatterUI, which allows you to communicate with LM Studio via your smartphone. It works over the local network: for example, I can lie on the couch with my phone in my hand while the big PC processes the responses. I tried out the Arlai llama 3.3 RPMax 70B model. Interesting and educational 🤔 💭
