this is the most responsible idea. i love it

How can one reproduce this?

It’s not often discussed that Microsoft, Amazon, and other ‘very cool’ tech companies still practice this 80s firing the bottom 10% bull.. It has nothing with being a low performer, but everything to do with culling jobs indiscriminately and creating an in/out culture. Managers are forced to place employees into bottom performance slots, sometimes arbitrarily, so that teams/groups/departments fit the bell curve nicely. Then, people get fired, bonuses go out, and everything is peachy at the end of the fiscal yesr.

Let that stew for a few years and these behemoths are factories of pet projects and crunch culture. Your long-timers are either golden performers who’ve seen massive churn and project turbulance OR they’re climbers, willing to step on top of anyone or burn any project to climb the ladder or at least keep their spots.

Thanks for the info. This is really promising.

Price?

VS Code has a fully open source base which excludes proprietary extensions and default telemetry ( kind of how AOSP is for Android)

Check here for more info:

Ollama is FOSS, SD has a proproprietary but permissive, source-available license, but it is not what most people would associate with “open-source”

I have this exact same setup. Open Web UI has more features than I’ve been able to use such as functions and pipelines.

I use it to share my LLMs across my network. It has really good user management so I can set up a user for my wife or brother in law and give them general use LLM while my dad and I can take advantage of Coding-tuned models.

The code formatting and code execution functions are great. It’s overall a great UI.

Ive used LLMs to rewrite code, help format PowerPoint slides, summarize my notes from work, create D&D characters, plan lessons, etc

I’m considering adding it to the alternatives list I posted. Can anybody else validate their privacy policy? Seemd ok but I’m a bit iffy regarding their use of telemetry. Maybe I’m overthinking it
