I’m an English teacher who wanted to “cut the cord” wherever I could, so I started learning about domain hosts, containerization, .yaml files, etc.
Since then, I’ve been hosting several pods for file sharing and streaming for many years, and I’m currently thinking about learning kubernetes for home deployment. But why?
If you aren’t in development, IT, cyber security, or in a related profession, what made you want to learn this on your own? What made you want to pick this up as a hobby?
Hey, hosting your own LLM could work out for you in that respect.
i’d rather spend time actually learning and doing things instead of being an LLM slopper lol
What I’ve found works well is giving it a prompt to turn it into a tutor (along with giving it the information) if something doesn’t seem right, look into it without AI, I haven’t had it backfire on me yet. I can definitely respect someone avoiding ai entirely though.
Damn, got shot down, lol. I’m not advocating for churning out assignments; just for tinkering with editing and brainstorming. “Actually learning and doing things” is admirable. I’d rather be certain a student is growing instead of the clanker.
But think about it: You could outsource procrastinating to it and just do other things instead - like herding puppies…

@muxika @hexagonwin If you do make sure you got a gpu or you’d likely be frustrated with it if it worked.
