This is really not true my friend. I would love to help you if I had some more time, but let me look for a tutorial.

Because the FineWeb Dataset is already super good. You can train 7B or 32B Param models at home

The >600B Param model isn't really using all the data effectively, but with a MacStudio Farm you can also train that one at home (if you have enough money to buy at least 100).

Here's the easy way: https://github.com/FareedKhan-dev/train-deepseek-r1

Here's how DeepSeek-R1-Zero was built, basically from 0 to Hero, including weights the FULL Training Data and everything you need to get it running locally or on servers.https://medium.com/@GenerationAI/how-deepseek-r1-zero-was-re...

For $30 USD you can also train a small DeepSeek at home!
