Hey Hugging Face community 👋
My name is M. I'm a solo founder and self-taught developer based in Houston, TX. I build AI-powered apps — I have an iOS app called DeFilter currently in App Store review, a security scanning platform called Sentinel, and a job marketplace called HireHuman.fyi for connecting humans with companies that prefer non-AI workers.
I'm also a poker dealer by night, which means I think a lot about reading situations in real time — and that's exactly what sparked this idea.
I'm not the most technical person in the room. But I have a vision, I have drive, and I believe the best projects get built when people with different skills come together around a shared idea.
That's why I'm posting here. I want to build this with the community.

I've been cooking something neat over the past weeks 👨🍳
We all know that training LLMs requires a lot of resources and especially a lot of compute in form of GPUs, or is super slow and inefficient when done on CPUs.
The big players use giant clusters of Nvidia H100s.
But if I look at the profiles of my fellow home brewers, all we can get our hands on are those pesky consumer RTX's. If you're lucky you got yourself a 5080 with 16GB VRAM or something.
To be frank, I don't have that 1.3k disposable cash laying around ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
But I can write rust and like building ML libraries.
So I asked myself the question(s):
- can I train SMLs at home on my hardware?
- How hard can it be to build a ML library that can stream data between RAM and VRAM on demand, like llama.cpp's unified memory feature [^1]?
- how hard can it be to implement bf16 support?
The answers are wild, trust me!
Image 1: Metrics form last nights build on my "tiny" RTX 2060 (6 GB VRAM)
Image 2: Metrics from my most recent build on my RTX 4070 Laptop (8GB VRAM)
The majority of my time went into the shared memory, but it's stable and I'm very excited!
Here some debug logs, a la "trust me bro"
