Just a kind reminder on this one… Thanks!

Here’s to hoping this feature request starts moving in the right direction sometime soon as the local setup for OSS models is still slightly more complicated than it should have been.

I don’t think the .com analogy necessarily applies to the major LLM providers, but rather a bunch of companies that simply build a slightly different UI, then pipe all the users input through a large provider API and call themselves the pioneer AI startup. But that’s just my understanding…

No problem, can you DM me or send me an email where I can raise the issue? I went looking for one in the Github README, but it seems like it isn’t listed.

I don’t think public issue and/or Discord post would be a good idea in this case.

Thanks for getting back to me. ✌🏻

It’s football, not meant to be understood, but rather just enjoyed. GO BIRDS!

Sadly, I’m mostly in Zürich for work once a year, but maybe the Github stars align at some point in the future.

Have a great meetup and many more in any case!

All this to say:

building and shipping software can often be done with far simpler tools and methods than vendors selling DevOps solutions would have you believe.

As for the database—same thing. SQLite allowed me to use the local DB and SFTP it to staging.

Want to revert to a previous version of the DB?
It’s a file. Swap it.

Want to store a cleaned version?
It’s a file. Store it.

I contained the emails by using MailHog on the staging server.

Dummy files were processed locally, and then the files from the storage folder were SFTPed to the staging server using Cyberduck.

I needed a simple strategy so that the files could be (re)named in a predictable way, and we could swap them at will.

I also wanted to give them the option to test using production data, but without worrying about unintended side effects, such as test email leaks.

Setting the stage:

I was given 4,000 dummy files by the client, which have strict naming rules, so that we can extract the data and create DB records from them. The client asked whether these could be replaced with the real files at a later date, once out of QA.

I said, “Sure!”

Didn’t know this… oh boy.

Circular dependencies everywhere. 🫣

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;

My usual blunder is when my Macbook is closed and connected to the external monitor, I try to use the top of the Macbook lid as a trackpad and wonder why it doesn’t work for 10+ seconds…

COMPUTERS ARE LIKE … HARD, MAN. 😅
