I'm a member of the Erlang Ecosystem Foundation (https://erlef.org/) and part of that in my opinion is making sure folks know how to reach Elixir devs when they need to. I'm very interested in helping you showcase that your company is hiring so heavily for Elixir. Since you were kind in our email exchange, I'll return the kindness and hopefully help you find as many Elixir devs you can hire :). Just promise me to keep creating more Elixir jobs : ) :

Here are some interesting ways to find Elixir devs:

Create a post ElixirForum (https://elixirforum.com). Some folks watch the jobs category, so you should get interest there as well.
Add a job to Elixir Radar https://elixir-radar.com/post-your-job-listing-in-the-elixir-radar-for-free. A lot of folks subscribe to the newsletter and watch the jobs section quite closely.
Add a job to the ElixirCompanies website: https://elixir-companies.com/en. If you log in with a Github account (

4 Steps in Running LLaMA-7B on a M1 MacBook

The large language models usability

The problem with large language models is that you can’t run these locally on your laptop. Thanks to Georgi Gerganov and his llama.cpp project, it is now possible to run Meta’s LLaMA on a single computer without a dedicated GPU.

Running LLaMA

There are multiple steps involved in running LLaMA locally on a M1 Mac after downloading the model weights.

Anti-hype LLM reading list

Goals: Add links that are reasonable and good explanations of how stuff works. No hype and no vendor content if possible. Practical first-hand accounts of models in prod eagerly sought.

Foundational Concepts

Pre-Transformer Models

PostgreSQL is Enough

Background and Cron Jobs

Example of Kamal deployment from Github Actions.

Add your applications .env variables to the Github repo as a repository secret, you can find this under the repo settings => secrets and variables => actions

https://github.com/username/repo_name/settings/secrets/actions

you are going to need an ssh private key that your deployment server is aware of (add public key to servers .ssh/authorized_keys) and add the ssh private key as a repo secret

create action workflows
