    Nice, I’ve got a Mac Studio M1 Max with 32GB of RAM that I use with Ollama and then I host OpenWebUI and OpenCode on my Arch Server. I use the Mac as a primary workstation, so it’s a little rough when I start running a model. I’m sure I could probably do and learn more about Ollama to improve my experience, but for now it works for certain tasks.



  • After university I was looking for any part time work I could find. This was in 2007-2008, so the job market wasn’t particularly good in the UK. Ended up at a company that did over the phone charity donations. I wasn’t working for a specific charity, it was a company hired by charities to make cold calls. Called a lady who said she was going through chemo and lost her job recently, although she really would love to help a children’s hospital, she couldn’t afford it. Asshole manager is listening in on the call, makes a hand motion and mouths to me “keep pushing, it’s just excuses”. I apologized for taking up the ladies time and said I hoped her treatment goes well. Hung up, took off the headset and walked out the door. One of the best decisions I’ve made in my life!
