I am working on a FOSS Analytics concept. The idea behind the concept is to use FOSS for analytics running on Linux.
The logo is inspired by the #Fibunacci sequence, where the only two repeating numbers (1,1) are represented by the SS in FOSS in the squares.
The extended variation of the logo is a laptop with the FOSS #Fibunacci sequence on the screen. https://image.nostr.build/a5495d94a7a8b8470c5f695047b301788c1423c0b85b6f08e7a80f01ef34d0c0.jpg https://image.nostr.build/e05eb91fd3320115dc2fd953cdc1e4190f2fb18a6aba792c37030c41469dfc23.jpg https://image.nostr.build/069767a6a817bd05c75136774e99a0076194d2aa4540c157ae82cd8916352c7d.jpg

Running Small LLMs (oxymoron) Locally With an Integrated GPU on a Laptop.
This is what running local models on a consumer-grade laptop without a discrete GPU looks like... Still acceptable for many use cases in my opinion, but I definitely want to upgrade to a machine with a dedicated GPU.
Framework 13
OS: Linux
Hardware: AMD Ryzen 7040Series AMD® Ryzen 7 7840u w/ radeon 780m graphics × 16
Run in Terminal:
ollama run --verbose llama3.2:1b

As pointed out in Databricks' Generative AI Fundamentals course, which I strongly recommend (it's free and really good), AI “is a necessary condition to compete, but it is not a sufficient condition to differentiate yourself in the market.” AI tools and LLMs are widely available and accessible, including local LLMs.
So, how can LLMs be leveraged in a way that is practical and contributes to success?
From what I have seen and experimented with so far, one winning formula seems to be the following:
Local LLMs + Proprietary Data = Comparative and Competitive Advantage
Getting started with running local LLMs is as easy as navigating to Ollama and running the following commands (Linux example, of course):
Download Ollama:
curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh
Run llama 3.2:1b (example):
ollama run llama3.2:1b
Check the list of downloaded models:
ollama list
Verify Ollama is running locally (that's right, you don't need an internet connection).
http://localhost:11434/
Here are some advantages of running local LLMs as opposed to relying on proprietary models:
Free
No Contracts
Control
Flexibility
Choices
Security
Anonymity
However, appropriate hardware and know-how is needed for successful executions.
As we are told, there are no perfect models; only trade-offs. So, how do you choose and evaluate various options across family of models such as llama, hermes, mistral, etc. and select the appropriate size within a model (1.5b, 3b, 70b)? I call this horizontal vs vertical comparison, respectively.
Obviously, use cases and hardware requirements need to be considered, but beyond that, in addition to running prompts ad-hoc in the terminal or using the Open Web UI, a systematic way to compare models is needed for analytics purposes, especially if we want to follow the winning formula and take a full advantage of our data. Here is high level overview:
https://image.nostr.build/77df427dd32ea5328ed2c1d29a775685d697b69259ef8317b085cafad2829d87.jpg
Running local LLMs in Knime workflows for model comparison for analytics use cases, holding prompt(s) and hardware constant, and systematically capturing outputs has proven incredibly empowering, especially when the workflow is already integrated with proprietary data sources. Needless to mention, data wrangling is often needed prior to running analytics, as well as LLMs, and Knime workflows are great at that.
In this workflow, as a POC, I compare llama3.2:1b vs llama3.2:3b vs deepseek-r1:1.5b for sentiment analysis and topic modeling. The prompt as well as the responses of each of the three models is captured and can then be easily compared and analyzed:
https://image.nostr.build/3d4c8b18957a5c2ffce1454c16d86092891e6486d12305a37048c5635ae97ee6.jpg
When new LLMs are released, the workflow provides a flexible way to incorporate and test them. Such framework provides a systematic pipeline to experiment, evaluate, productionalize, and monitor models' outputs. Great for POCs!
Once the appropriate model is selected, the workflow can run local LLMs for analytics use cases such as sentiment analysis, topic modeling, etc. And to visualize the results in Metabase (coming soon as another FOSS Analytics segment) for a seamless FOSS Analytics experience is priceless (literally).
It is all about utilizing tools and building workflows in an integrating and systematic manner.
This end-to-end FOSS Analytics process flow is running on Linux on Framework hardware - the perfect combination for optimal performance and flexibility.
Join me in democratizing access to analytics capabilities and empowering people and organizations with data-driven insights!

Running local LLMs in Knime workflows for model comparison for analytics use cases, holding prompt(s) constant, and systematically capturing outputs is very empowering.
Use cases include sentiment analysis, outlier detection, etc.
The results are then visualized in Metabase.

Syncthing is great. We have 4 devices syncing. Two-way/multi sync can be a challenge, but once configured, it works great.
We often create manual backups outside of the main sync folder, just in case.
By the way, I heard that they are discontinuing the support for the android app:

Greetings, #NOSTR!
"In what year did Van Gogh die?
The year they asked him to draw a Pie Chart!"😃 | quote from ALF
We are a brand new #startup offering analytics solutions, consulting, and training.
We chose the name Mud Pie Analytics to play with satire and irony since people in the data analytics community usually like to make fun of those sometimes overused visualizations. Mud pie is also a reference to creativity, imagination, and innovation.
We guess no one will take us seriously if we don't know how to have fun!
Our goal is to build our business on #Bitcoin, be active on #NOSTR, and collaborative with like minded people and companies.
Our hope is that by conducting business this way, we can attract more people to Bitcoin and NOSTR, so we didn't have to rely on LinkedIn and other legacy platforms. Please support our endeavor!
Running #Linux on #Framework Hardware with Focus on #Foss!
Our website is still under development, but the first iteration is up and running with NOSTR as the only way to reach and communicate with us, for now. We shall see how things go.
mudpieanalytics.com
Cheers, and hit us up if you need help with analytics and automation. From pie charts to AI, statistics and dashboards, we've got you covered.
