Open question for anyone with insight...

How are open source / local LLMs (like Ollama, OpenClaw, or llama.cpp) affecting life for average workers in China? Are people running local models anywhere? Or are they just using Chinese cloud services?

I'm curious if "uncensored models" from outside China are being used at all, or, does China have its own culture of clandestine abliteration? Xiexie in advance.

Courgettes from my greenhouse.

I have no idea why this happened! Could it be because I pruned the plant back quite a bit while it was growing?

I had a cucumber next to it, but it got infested with spider mites, so I carefully took it out, and at the same time, cut back some of the leaves from the bottom of the courgette, that had also shown signs of infestation.

So I am trying to salvage my JBL speaker that had all the rubber get sticky and gross. I am thinking washi tape in neat strips.
The "holes" on the top are for power, volume, pair and bluetooth. Any suggestions for those? Initial idea is small circles of thin card so when I press down on the washi tape there is a bit of push.
Suggestions welcome!

What's a skill that you still haven't learnt but is a rabbit hole you need to go down sooner rather than later?

I'm not thinking of skills that would be useful but you look at and think "yeah nah, life's too short, I'm not getting into that".

I mean something that you genuinely want to learn but have been putting off.

Is there a hashtag for "I got a job"? It's nice to celebrate the wins. Also it can be helpful for the people who are still looking, because they can see trends of where jobs are being found.
