@grandstaff (tworock.io) joined us (@tobiasmcnulty and Gerald) for the install too! His 4090 #llm build got us excited to try our own 😀 https://www.petergrandstaff.com/writing/2026-05-local-llm-setup/ @caktusgroup
Some photos of a build day at the @caktusgroup office recently with Gerald and @tobiasmcnulty . We hope to test out local LLMs with a GeForce RTX 5090.
Upgrading the APs 🛜 at the @CaktusGroup office today with @tobiasmcnulty and Ronard!

#PyLadiesCon kicks off in less than 2 hours.
It will be my 9th conference I organized as a Serial Conference Organizer, and we are already breaking all the records from last year!
More registrations, more sponsorships, more donations, more volunteers 🤩
Massive thank you to all you for the support!
I've been reloading our conference dashboard for half an hour and it's been exciting to see the numbers going up each time.

Today will be all about celebrating all our hard work to make this happen. 🥰
