Eh, pls #boost my request to #getfedihired, if you could spare two clicks? 🥺

I've been humming and hawing about posting this, it feels strange, something about generational guilt & working class shame & ... but it's either this or start putting my CV through LLMs to include every buzzword on the listing I'm applying to. I haven't been able to stomach that, even though I presume that's a lot of my competition.

I simply can't get to an interview. Historically, I've done three interviews and got the job each time, because I'm a real human being who is friendly and chatty and presents himself sincerely (or, that's my guess, anyway).

#Christmas miracles appreciated!

In #Ireland with my partner, but we've lived in different places and would move happily. I've a year experience doing an IT support role the last year, but have transitioned to this stuff later than usual.

Before I've done: bartender; bicycle courier for Deliveroo in #Berlin for two years (best job ever); private tutor for five years in #Lyon (mostly piano but also maths, Irish, English, flute, tin whistle); bookies clerk for a short period; a few other odd bits - one highlight was writing reviews for a theatre company.

Oh, very comfortably fluent in #French, pretty fluent in #Irish (my first love), and intermediate #German (which I would love to have a chance to go back speaking and learning).

Tech-wise, it's been mostly on the #Linux / #Emacs / #Lisp side of things. I would happily work on anything that is one or more of challenging, interesting, useful, or moral.

Money doesn't rule me. I want to live with a humane level of comfort, that's all.

CVs and references available, DMs open. Thanks so much for any and all help!

gptel-org-tools update.

Edit: there's some kind of issue with @Codeberg@social.anoxinon.de which prevents the link from working (returns 404). The old (but up to date) repo is here: git.bajsicki.com/phil/gptel-or…
1. Cloned to codeberg.org/bajsicki/gptel-or…, and all future work will be happening on Codeberg.
2. Added gptel-org-tools-result-limit and a helper function for it. This sets a hard limit on the number of characters a tool can return. If it's over that, the LLM is prompted to be more specific in its query. Not applied to all tools, just the ones that are likely to blow up the context window.
3. Added docstrings for the functions called by the tools, so LLMs can look up their definitions.
4. Improved the precision of some tool descriptions so instructions are easier to follow.
5. Some minor improvements w/r/t function names and calls, logic, etc. Basic QA.

Now, as a user:
1. I'm finding it increasingly frustrating that Gemma 3 refuses to follow instructions. So here's a PSA: Gemma 3 doesn't respect the system prompt. It treats it just the same as any other user input.
2. Mistral 24B is a mixed bag. I'm not sure if it's my settings or something else, but it fairly consistently ends up looping; it'll call the same tool over and over again with the exact same arguments. This happens with other models as well, but not nearly as frequently.
3. Qwen 2.5 14B: pretty dang good, I'd say. The Cogito fine-tune is also surprisingly usable.
4. Prompting: I have found that a good, detailed system prompt tends to /somewhat/ improve results, especially if it contains clear directions on where to look for things related to specific topics. I'm still in the middle of writing one that's accurate to my Emacs set-up, but when I do finish it, it'll be in the repository as an example.
5. One issue that I still struggle with is that the LLMs don't take any time to process the user request. Often they'll find some relevant information in one file, and then decide that's enough and just refuse to look any further. Often devolving into traversing directories /as if/ they're looking for something... and they get stuck doing that without end.

It all boils down to the fact that LLMs aren't intelligent, so while I have a reasonable foundation for the data collection, the major focus is on creating guardrails, processes and inescapable sequences. These will (ideally) railroad LLMs into doing actual research and processing before they deliver a summary/ report based on the org-mode notes I have.
