I consolidated my setup a bit. This is my local LLM hosting server. I took a gamble on a Chinese NVLink SXM2 mezzanine board from ebay, it was surprisingly plug and play for my dual 16GB v100s ๐Ÿ˜‚. I'm also running a Tesla P40 that I repasted with liquid metal that sits at 24C idle ๐Ÿฅถ.

I had a similar goal with Hermes, but ended up splitting the context between separate profiles instead of teaching one agent everything. They share a Kanban board, while important decisions still come back to me.

It may be overkill for a homelab, but the profile isolation has worked better than I expected. I documented the setup here: https://github.com/nohuman-labs/agent-company

From the first photo I thought this was an earthquake simulator with models of skyscrapers

๐Ÿ˜‚ I can see how it looks that way lol

Nice, dude. Love anyone who learns by doing.

It's been a fascinating experience so far and I feel like I'm only touching the surface. I'm exploring some of the various memory harnesses to hook into Hermes Agent and see how it learns with extended use.

Thatโ€™s great! But Iโ€™m even more curious about the green device in the background of the first pic ๐Ÿ‘€ Whatโ€™s that?

It's an older version of a heatset insert fixture. I used it to put threaded brass inserts into my 3d prints instead of trying to capture a nut or screwing directly into plastic.

Thatโ€™s interesting. Thanks!

What kind of model and space limitations are you under with v100s?

Some of the most interesting computer music Iโ€™ve heard in years was composed on them but idk if itโ€™s worth getting into a whole new generation of hardware if it can only really do that.

This looks amazing. Did you make it with a CNC machine? Are you planning to add an enclosure? I think it would look even better with one.

Thank you! I actually 3D printed these. I couldn't get my qidi ifast to play nicely with my generic ABS filament, so I sliced them in half and printed them in PLA on my prusa mini. They're joined in the middle with a keyed lock on the top and bottom and 8x 12mm M3 bolts
