Looks like coding agent is model+harness. There are far fewer models represented on that page. I believe "agentic index" is still the metric to look at for coding performance. I could be wrong about that though.

For one thing, providers of open models can't arbitrarily increase their prices without facing competition.

If your coding agent workflow isn't sandboxed, backed up, and rollback-able, it's fundamentally broken. And yes I realize most of us aren't working this way today. But I think we'll have the tooling pretty soon. There&#x

Oh are you saying the human remains the bottleneck?

I don't doubt this is true for many projects currently (though it's not for a bevy project I'm working on). Have you tried Cerebras, Groq, Taalas, et al? It was a paradigm shift for me.

I could see Rust becoming the language for coding agents, because it has such solid guardrails built in. I could also see it slipping into obscurity as LLMs get faster and compile times become a more and more obvious bottleneck on iterati

I grew up on Dune lore and the first movie is one of my favorites of all time. Highly recommended for any Dune fan. I didn't care for the second one.

Can you give some more details on the technical differences between completions and responses that people actually care about? I found this information surprisingly hard to drum up.

Speed is the metric I'm currently most interested in. The models are smart enough. Once speed significantly increases I think we're going to see some interesting downstream effects. The three things I currently spend the most time

That's surprising. Does it have no sub agent support at all or does it just use the same agent as the parent?

I got hit with my first belt-and-suspenders by Kimi K3 this morning. I normally use GPT. Is that a Claude-ism?

Artificial Analysis ranks qwen3.6-27b higher than qwen3.5-122b-a10b on both intelligence and coding. Does that run counter to your experience?

Honestly it's pretty wild that the standard way to download these isn't torrent instead of Hugging Face direct. Why doesn't HF themselves provide torrent links?

This is my experience as well. The two areas I get the most leverage out of AI are root cause analysis and vibe coding green field prototypes.

Sunshine was significantly easier for me to get working using a dummy plug. I'm currently exploring other options but that's definitely the happy path.

FWIW Incus is really good here. I don't quite have it fully working for headless gaming containers sharing a single GPU, but I'm very confident it will work at this point.

In my utopia traditional advertising doesn't exist. Products are in catalogs. When I want to buy something I look in the catalog under a specific category. Innovative products that actually bring value are spread by word of mouth.

I run my agents in a VM. They don't even have access to their own LLM API keys.
