1ď¸âŁ Small LLMs, Local Power - Tanja Bräther
LLMs are getting smaller, now compact enough to run smoothly on standard laptops. While trade-offs are inevitable, different models excel at different tasks.
I built a simple benchmarking tool as a side project using Ollama to compare these lightweight models and discover which ones shine for specific use cases â helping me make smarter choices about which small LLM to use when computational resources are limited.2ď¸âŁ Building Scalable JSON:API Backends with Laravel Restify - Marius Sucevan
Laravel Restify isnât just another CRUD generatorâitâs a powerful toolkit for crafting elegant, spec-compliant APIs with minimal effort.
In this talk, weâll go beyond the basics to explore how Restify enables clean architecture, advanced filtering and blazing-fast development. Whether youâre building SPAs or full-on SaaS platforms, Restify helps you move fast without sacrificing structure. Perfect for developers who want to level up their Laravel API game.đď¸ Schedule
