Selfhosting Sunday! What's up? (lemmy.nocturnal.garden)

It's been a while! Let us know what you're currently working on, what exploded, what cool stuff you found, or just brag that everything is running fine unattended.

I haven't been doing a lot, renovate auto upgrades for patches and sometimes minor updates work great so far. I got involved in my union to spin up a mastodon server soon, so there's a new project, but I already run mastodon so it shouldn't be much of a deal, I just need to get comfortable with the infrastructure. I also set up ntfy but only sent some test notifications and didn't configure any app yet - planned for Element Chat.

[Meta] I'm not sure how to apply the new tags. In the recent versions of this thread, people sometimes posted about their ollama setup or the like, but I'm not mentioning AI in the post body (except this meta thingy) and it shouldn't be much of the discussion, but it's an open post. Maybe curbstickle can chime in to let me know if I should apply one of them.

  • It’s just under 300B, trained at FP4; absolutely the perfect size for servers with 128GB-192GB CPU RAM to spare.

  • Its fast. I’m getting 17 tokens/sec on a single RTX 3090 GPU, all experts offloaded to RAM; for a 300B model this smart, that’s crazy fast.

  • Its attention mechanism is cutting edge, good for long context without too much processing time.

  • The benchmarks for coding/agenic usage are absolutely bonkers, within margin of error of frontier models or Deepseek Pro in some cases: https://huggingface.co/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731

  • …Though I don’t put much stock in benchmarks. And I haven’t tested it enough to tell you if it lives up to that hype for specific use cases.

  • Deepseek also publishes its base model. That means I can “unfry” the model with a merge if I have to.


I am afraid of the the model being “overfit” to coding and agenic stuff.

For reference, my previous favorite model was Xiaomi MiMo V2.5 310B. It benched well, but it also feels “smart” outside of benchmarks, like in knowledge of trivia without tool usage/internet access or comprehension of weird questions.
