Holy Father the post will perform better if you append the url in a threaded reply as opposed to linking it in the tweet

I have now run one of the more powerful, open source LLMs (Mistral 7B) directly on my iPhone. No internet needed.
It isn’t very fast but that is already being solved. Consider the implications: almost anything can soon be imbued with local “intelligence”
A lot of possibilities.

Hard to disagree with @MakeUK_'s report findings that UK infrastructure has deteriorated in last 10 years. Half the doors don't open on this morning's 30 min delayed train 😅 ft.com/content/d348bebe-4fa4… via @FT
I attended the launch of the fantastic @TICMcr yesterday, an ambitious initiative to accelerate GM's digital economy. There was (I think rightly) a big focus on digital skills, particularly boosting them in areas where we can make a big difference to living standards 1/2
We did a capitalism. 💪🇬🇧📈 prolificnorth.co.uk/news/10m…

I struggle to get out for a wee jog and this guy keeps popping up on my timeline
138 days ago I began my attempt to become the first person ever to run the entire length of Africa.
Here is a list of some of the problems I’ve had to overcome to get to this point (I’m not even halfway):
• Day 1- Started the mission with less than 10% funding
• Day 5- Support van breakdown
• Day 14- Attempted robbery
• Day 17- Support van couldn’t cross the border. Solo into the desert
• Day 26- Food poisoning (multiple days)
• Day 35- Another attempted robbery
• Day 42- Started pissing blood (lasted 6 days)
• Day 64- Got robbed at gunpoint (passports, cameras, phones, money got taken)
• Day 74- Visas issues (had to travel 2000km backwards & pay a load of bribes to get it sorted)
• Day 89- Leg injury
• Day 103- Got stuck in a rural Congo village. Thought I was going to die.
• Day 107- Van needed fixing (10 days)
• Day 112- Restructure of the support team. Made 2 new hires.
• Day 120- Arranged purchase of new support vehicle
• Day 128- Foot injury
• Day 136- Support van crashed. Potentially a write off.
Throw in running daily ultra marathons and it has been quite the party out here so far. The message stays the same as always.
WE KEEP MOVING FORWARD. TILL THE END🫡
