If you are using local models for coding you are midwiting this. Your code should be worth more than a subscription.
The only legit use case for local models is privacy.
I don't know why anyone would want to code with an intern level model when they can get a senior engineer level model for a couple of bucks more.
It DOESN'T MATTER if you're writing a simple hello world function or building out a complex feature. Just use the f*ing best model.
- jgalt212 10mo agoI will use a local coding model for our proprietary / trade secrets internal code when Google uses Claude for its internal code and Microsoft starts using Gemini for internal code. The flip side of this coin is I'd be very excited if Jane Street or DE Shaw were running their trading models through Claude. Then I'd have access to billions of dollars of secrets.

Using Claude for inference does not mean the codebase gets pulled into their training set. This is a tired myth that muddies up every conversation about LLMs

- bilater 10mo agolol yeah its weird to me why even ppl on HN can't wrap their heads around stateless calls.
- jgalt212 10mo agounless you control both the client and the server, you cannot prove a call is stateless.

- rester324 10mo agoIs this some kind of mental problem that you want to tell people what they do and how they spend their money? Pretty jerk attitude IMO
