Just to be pedantic - today, 20th June, is the day with the longest period of daylight in 2024 - it is not the longest day. In 2024 the longest day, in the UK, will be Sunday 27th October.

Heard of LLMs and even focused small language models. I thought I would get in on the trend - not an LLM, not small, not a micro- or even nano language model, but an atto language model. Enter any question and the answer is always "goat" - R code below - very reliable model.

I will be transferring over to the land of azure horizons. I will lurk here for a while longer as there are a couple of good communities still here but the other place is like twitter once was. So long. Fred
