Author launches Mastodon blog with local LLM coding challenge

The author is setting up a new personal blog on the Mastodon platform, utilizing the ActivityPub protocol. This move is part of a personal challenge to code using local, smaller Large Language Models (LLMs) rather than relying on cloud-based giants. The author details their hardware limitations, specifically a GTX 1060 GPU, and their choice of the Qwen 3.6 35B A3B model, particularly the Tiel Coder variant, for its balance of performance and resource requirements. They achieved a 96K token context window with CPU offloading and a decoding speed of 15 tokens per second. AI

IMPACT Demonstrates feasibility of running capable LLMs on consumer hardware, potentially lowering barriers for AI experimentation.

RANK_REASON The item is a personal blog post detailing a technical challenge and setup, rather than a primary release or significant industry event.

    Микроблог, в этот раз с ActivityPub Хммм... Пятый по счёту первый пост в блог. Добравшись до очередной итерации бложика (давно сбился со счёту - какой именно), решил, что в этот раз пора что-нибудь поменять. Разумеется, речь только о технических переменах, общий подход прежний - …
