  3. OLMo

    Modeling, training, eval, and inference code for OLMo

    - open fine-tuning recipe (code + data)

    Very few entities publish the later two items (https://huggingface.co/blog/smollm and https://allenai.org/olmo come to mind). Arguably, publishing curated pretraining data is very costly but publishing code to automatically curate pretraining data from uncurated sources is already very valuable.

  4. DeepSeek-V3

    > If the magic values are some kind of microcode or firmware, or something else that is executed in some way, then no, it is not really open source.

    To my understanding, the contents of a .safetensors file is purely numerical weights - used by the model defined in MIT-licensed code[0] and described in a technical report[1]. The weights are arguably only really "executed" to the same extent kernel weights of a gaussian blur filter would be, though there is a large difference in scale and effect.

  5. billabear

    Subscription Management and Billing System

    While it's clearly content marketing aimed at the hype of DeepSeek, it only mentions Lago in a single sentence.

    It's just an article that is aimed to get you to hear about Lago, star their GitHub repository and eventually talk about the "open source" billing tool you heard about called Lago.

    (I put Open Source in quotes because I think it's open source version is just Freeware with most features being Call To Action to a paid version. Fair disclosure I have https://github.com/billabear/billabear which is a competitor)

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
