this is really super cool:

https://likebutter.app/blog/butterbox-deltachat

quite some other projects try to solve "offline communications" by using Bluetooth but I think this is very unpractical for anything that is not looking like an IRC or SMS app

but if people setup local interconnected wifi hotspots and build a mesh network in the cities/towns then you can have a something much more interesting while not draining everyone's battery

enabling people to do things like this and becoming truly resilient and autonomous

things like this you can never do with centralized messengers like #WhatsApp, #Telegram, #Signal, etc. if you really care about digital independence, centralized alternatives are just NOT an option at all

Und dies beschränkt sich nicht nur auf Standard-Fine-Tuning: 🧠 30B-Modell 🎯 Lokal feinabstimmen 🏋️ GRPO-Verstärkungslernen ⚡ 1,5× schnelleres Training 💾 ~50% weniger VRAM im Vergleich zu FlashAttention-2-Setups 🆓 Kostenlose Trainings-Notebooks verfügbar Ein einzelner Consumer-GPU kann nun ein ernstzunehmendes 30B-Agentenmodell nehmen und ihm deine eigenen Fähigkeiten beibringen: 🤖 Agentenverhalten 🛠️ Werkzeugnutzung 💻 Coding-Workflows 👁️ Multimodale Aufgaben 📄 Spezialisierte Dokumente 🎯 Benutzerdefinierte Belohnungsfunktionen Dies ist kein Pretraining eines 30B-Modells von Grund auf. Es ist etwas viel Praktischeres. Ein bereits fähiges Modell nehmen und es dir eigen machen. Lokale KI bedeutete früher „Ich kann die Gewichte ausführen.“ Dann wurde es zu „Ich kann die Gewichte quantisieren.“ Jetzt wird es mehr wie 🔥 „Ich kann die Gewichte auch TRAINIEREN.“ Das fühlt sich an wie die nächste Phase des Localmaxxings.

I'm not able to afford much, but I want to show the project in some way how much I appreciate all that they do. If you are able to support a project like this, please do! And of course, not all support has to be financial. Most of the people who work on software that we use every single day do it for free and in their own time.
