They just took 3.1 pro away from me while I was asking about Cami Clark and Epstein (for due-dilligince), lol. Now I have access to 3.6 Flash and 3.5 flash-light. So I canceled my sub. Shame. I used to love using antigravity when the allowance was good.

Good use of price anchoring.

Install the llm cli and tell opus to use it to prompt qwen.

Qwen3.8-27B has no base model version in the wild that I can see?

Isn’t the latest Qwen 3 public base model… Qwen 3?

Despite the naming Qwen3 and Qwen3.5+ have very little in common in terms of architecture. (And neither does 3.8-Flash-next …)

Trump has great speech writers. Here are a couple of highlights being read as audition monologues

Joseph Kennedy did not get out of the stock market, he turned around and sold short. In 1929 he was worth $4M. Five years later he was up to $180M.

It is well known that anthropic stole from Qwen and Deepseek for their chinese language training.

Why use llamacpp instead of something faster like exllama?

Carbon isn't out yet.

Argon is definitely competitive (used it over the past week or so).

It's pretty slow, but comprehensive. Caught a bunch of stuff that GLM-5.3 flash (which is incredible value) missed, and gave me good solutions for some irritating issues.

It's very slow (even by frontier standards), but it's hard for me to believe that Anthropic have much of a moat.

I mean, I like talking to Claude more than basically every other model (the open models are much more entertaining though, especially their thinking) but that doesn't feel like it warrants their valuation.

If they can successfully move towards owning their compute, and optimise it massively then they might do well, but it's a risky proposition from my perspective.

I've been using Argon to write documentation, it does laps around Claude which is great for code, but should go to the school for LLMs who can't write good but wanna learn to do other stuff good too.
