Appeal For Peace

-


I have some requests

1. Keep away from being instigated by any one to upset peace, spread mistrust and doubt.
2. What ever is happening with some IT professionals now is to reflect on our youth and prevent them being misguided from providing peace and prosperity for the whole mankind.
3. Some one may not be treating you in a not so good manner, you may be oppressed but be patient and do an activity that promotes peace not the ones that upset peace.
4. Let any one accuse you put you to trouble as long as you are clean all will end well. And Stay clean
5. Carefully choose your circle of friends, do not entertain calls from unknown numbers or people and do not call them back.
6. Trust your friends and correct them if they are wrong also be open to correct if you are wrong.
7. No religion in this world teaches violence as all the religions ultimately came from our creator.
8. Trust news that is clear, do not give in to speculation and stereo typing not all humans beings are bad.
9. Do not visit websites that promote hatred and violence.
10. Inculcate a habit within us and the youth to discuss with elders on every major step that you plan to take that helps to foresee consequences of your actions.

Some people asked me should we not do something about this situation, as you also have been through such a situation. I replied if you are meaning ‘we’ to be ‘muslims’ let me humbly say that what ever happens is from our creator and when we do good deeds he will decide good things for us. Lets all reflect on what we all are doing for peace, this is a small world and a flat world every one could use a little bit of peace, love, care and trust.

Local Deepseek r1 on Web UI : Open Source

In June 2023, when Rajan Anandan, a venture capitalist and former CEO of Google India, posed the query about the possibility of building a similar OpenAI or ChatGPT, Sam Altman replied it was "Hopeless" and "Impossible". Cut to 2025, Deepseek happened, and today people run their own LLMs on modest hardware configurations. I can humbly attest that Deepseek R1 can run on modest desktops and desktops with GPUs such as GTX 970 to RTX 4070 Super. Why Run LLMs Locally? Data Privacy and Security : For some organizations, the sensitivity of the data they're working with necessitates keeping it on-premises. Local hosting reduces the risk of data breaches and unauthorized access since data remains within the organization’s control. Customization and Control : Running LLMs locally allows for greater control over model configuration and fine-tuning. Organizations can tailor the models to better meet their specific needs and integrate them more seamlessly with their existing...

Meaning of Summa Ameen

-
Image
The verbal meaning of Summa Ameen is re-iteration of the first Ameen. The effect of saying Ameen is more than saying dua twise which is explained as below. The letter deliverd by a post man or a courier would have a 'From' address and a 'To' address it would rarely contain a seal, presence of a seal signifies higher priority and importance of the delivered content. So the reader gives more consideration to a letter which has a seal on it. Every dua is our personal letter which is delivered directly to Allah, with immediate effect and no middle man/thing. Prophet said(something similar to) "a dua followed by Ameen is like placing a seal on it".

Home Assistant Setting Up Voice Timer

-
 We've been familiar with the idea ease and convenience of voice activated timer either on Alexa, Google Assistant or Apple Home/Siri. However, to get it working on Home Assistant (HA), isnt achieved without a bit of nerd-ish satisfaction to exercise and see the designing and realization of the design come to life. A bit of a background The Talking to Assist feature in home assist, "set a timer for 5 minutes" does start a timer, however you need some device connected to HA to let you know that the timer has completed. That was not what i was not very excited about, one more device to make it work, hmmm , not my stuff. To set the scope, the requirement needs to be defined clearly, hence the designing process was triggered. Requirement(s):  1, Start a timer with voice command for specified time ( hours, minutes and seconds ) 2. Play a ringing sound once the timer is done. 3. Stop the ringing sound on stop voice command. The Design : Part Starting Timer (Automation 1) The de...
