It's local LLM time! What an adventure it has been since I first started exploring local LLMs. With the introduction of various new Llama models, we now have impressive small and large models that run seamlessly on consumer hardware.

Optimizing Windows for Productivity and Performance
Hi everyone,
I’m Fahadi Jutt, working in IT and always interested in making Windows systems run smoother and more efficiently. I’d love to hear what strategies or tools you use to optimize...
Sometimes data arrives as a series of individual files each of which is organized in the same way—which is to say, each of which has the same variables, features, or columns. Imagine a series of tables reporting mandated information about every s...
JSON Template (JSON-T) is a minimal but powerful template language, designed to be paired with a JSON dataset. This data is provided by Squarespace and is dynamically generated, containing all of your site content.
I’ve decided that I want to changeup how I display my projects on the blog, I think I could create a landing page for all my code and then create dedicated locations for things that are published. Additionally I think it would be fun to see some of the stats displayed here, which is easy enough for an individual project, but not for a large group. This got me thinking how can I query nuget.org and powershellgallery.com for a list of packages that I’ve published.
Sometimes all you want to know, or need to know, is how big a folder is in PowerShell. To do that, we'll need to use Get-ChildItem and Measure-Object specifically.The quick and dirtyThe first command...

Simple Foreign Function Interface using S7 and libffi
Simple Foreign Function Interface for R using libffi and S7 classes. Supports calling C functions with type conversion and struct handling. Includes standard C types (int8, int16, int32, int64, uint variants), platform types (size_t, bool), floating point types, and complex struct types. Experimental header parsing using tinycc as `C` preprocessor enables automatic generation of R bindings from C header files, simplifying package development for C libraries.
Understand EPSG, WKT and Other CRS Definition Styles
Coordinate Reference System (CRS) information is often stored in three key formats, including proj.4, EPSG and WKT. Learn more about the ways that coordinate reference system data are stored including proj4, well known text (wkt) and EPSG codes.
c++ - Determining Which Compiler Built a Win32 PE - Stack Overflow
How can one determine which C or C++ compiler was used to build a particular Windows executable or DLL? Some compilers leave behind version strings in the final executable, but this seems to be rar...
A terrifying descent into madness, or, an explanation of how R serialises an in-memory data structure to summon a sequence of bytes that can be saved or transmitted. Eldritch horrors are unleashed by reading occult texts such as the R internals manual, SEXPTYPE codes are extracted from RDS with bitwise logic, and in the dark conclusion the R source code is consulted
A suite of tools for transforming an existing workflow into a self-documenting pipeline with very minimal upfront costs. Segments of the pipeline are specified in much the same way a Make rule is, by declaring an executable recipe (which might be an R script), along with the corresponding targets and dependencies. When the entire pipeline is run through, only those recipes that need to be executed will be. Meanwhile, execution metadata is captured behind the scenes for later inspection.
