I am loving the new release cadence!

It looks like there is one here:
I am using Mistral 7b Instruct for text summary and some light “assistant” type chatting for the last several months. I have been pleased at how accurate it is for my needs, especially given it’s size.
I recall alot of trial and error to find models that were compatible with the version of llama-cpp-python that oobabooga uses (at any given time). GGUF should have made the model format (and therefore model selection) more simple, but i imagine there are still nuances that make it more difficult than it should be to find a working model for a noob.
Best of luck, let us know how it goes
Hosting my own git server on my NAS made my life easier and better due to the new freedoms it offers. Backups are centralized, and I have all the space i need to keep any interesting code safe. I am using forgjeo now and highly recommend it. You can also use other front ends (or none and just ssh/filesystem) but forgjeo gives me artifacts (ie docker registry), code search, LFS, and more. With my own git server, my local filesystem only has what I am working on recently (or as my workstation space allows). My home folder has a folder for each version control system (git, pijul, svn). Inside of these i have 2 sub folders: <domain>/<repo name>
Some examples of different domains are: open, work, personal, dragonish. I do not separate what forge or remote service in the filesystem, this is a persona boundary.
I use git remote names and branches in each repo to handle what software forge and any upstream/maintainers i need to work with. As an example my work repos only get pushed to my work server (ie, only 1 git remote named origin set to my work’s server), but my open ones will go to forgjeo and github (i setup 2 git remotes, origin and github. origin in this domain goes to my forgjeo). If i have a need i go into some more git branching strategy which I do find has helped me over my life, but I think I am overthinking this post now! keep it all simple enough for what your needs are.
