Ollama on the plane

I was doing some work offline on a flight today and (sadly) reached for AI only to realise my usual wasn’t available whilst offline.

Then I remembered I setup ollama with qwen3 the other day. Well it worked really well in helping me figure out how to use a library. I haven’t used ollama in a long time and found the local models quite inferior to online but qwen3 was really quite good.

I think having access to an offline model is a real boon for productivity, especially when you just want to consult docs and ask questions about simple stuff like that.
