This also means the Table Slayer source is now open. Still a bit to do there before it'll be super easy to run locally, but you can peep it over on GitHub. github.com/Siege-Perilo...

Trying out @11ty.dev with Webc. Pretty pretty pretty nice! Enjoyable experience so far and is-island a nice addition. Between Lit, Svelte, Astro and 11ty there's a lot of good frontend options these days for a whole range of sites/component models.

You can check it out here at

Hello my bluesky #TTRPG friends!

I wanted to start a thread to explain more about dimm.city RPG. This is more than just another TTRPG. We are building the BlueSky of "table top" games.

Yes it is a traditional RPG you can play at a table with your friends but it is so much more!!

It is..

Qwen 2.5 Coder 32b has beet GPT 4o in the aider benchmarks! So wild these models run on consumer GPUs 🤯
November 29, 2024 at 3:25 PM
I uploaded a benchmark for the #aider AI coding tool that was surprising. The #qwen2.5-coder model running locally using #ollama beat #chatgpt #o1-mini 🤯

This model can run on 16gb of VRAM and possibly as low as 12gb. This is a game changing model.

Using `min-width: fit-content` instead of `white-space: nowrap` is probably my favorite discovery and tip that I shared this year.

Basically the same result but no potential overflow issues.

You can see it in action in this video where the buttons stack as the space reduces.

I struggled to get #ollama running on my Intel Arc GPU until I found the ipex-llm docker container. It still took a bit of tweaking, but I threw together a post that should make it easy to run local LLMs and access them from any Ollama compatible tool.

People often ask me about how I learned CSS.

It's a combo of a lot of reading, experimenting, and relying on smart people to show me better ways of doing things.

Andy is one of those smart people.

Wherever you are in your CSS journey, I guarantee you'll learn a lot from this course.

I started on a new project to help me document the CSS used by a legacy WordPress theme as I convert the site to #svelte

The tool generates markdown from CSS by sending chunks to an LLM. Also has an @11ty.dev starter kit to build a style guide site

Feedback and PRs welcome!
