Comprehension debt will be the next manager's problem after I get promoted because of the massive vibecoded rewrite.

> This is what led to such a high volume of `unsafe` code Which defeats the purpose of having it in rust.

Human-written code is theoretically surmountable. Large LLM-written code is called slop for a reason. It's hard to understand because oftentimes it does not follow human logic.

It was not ported by an engineer. It was transpiled by an LLM and no engineer has ever seen those 1mloc.

He plays around with a toy project in a separate branch, tells everybody to relax that's just an experiment that has no chance of being merged, then abruptly merges 1m lines of code not seen by a human, effectively zeroing out all the

It's not refactoring. It's LLM transpiled.

It's 1mloc that no human has seen . There is no possibility for that project to be reliable, at least initially.

> A full rewrite of 1 million loc is essentially a new runtime It's not a rewrite exactly. Nobody wrote anything. Not a single human has even seen, much less understood those 1m lines.

Yeah I know. And I know that deps management is very hard, and much more so in an environment not used to any package management at all (python). Still its a mess

I hate the state of python packages ecosystem. The other day I wanted to install isd on Ubuntu. Isd requires uv. uv? Not installed. Ok, pip install uv. No way, "externally managed" whatever that means. Ok, install venv. Then insta

Native MCP: For Qwen 35B enabling native MCP on MLX models slows it down by 10%. For Qwen 27B enabling native MCP on MLX models speeds token generation up almost exactly 1.5x. (all tested on M5 pro).

Oh yeah I did test various solutions and different settings and quants Llama is about 1/3 slower on Apple Silicon.

I have researched for quite a bit and so far the fastest runtime is the oMLX one. But there's a caveat: ttft on MLX on M4 Pro is enormous. On M5 Pro it has been greatly sped up.

Qwen 3.6 35B running on oMLX 0.3.9rc1: on oMLX I get 86 t/s on Q4 and 74 t/s on Q6. Bear in mind that ttft on MLX is much much faster on M5 Pro as compared to M4 Pro. Also bear in mind that those figures are with NO optimizations

Thanks for the article! I have a beefy M5 Pro and I'm eagerly looking around for ways to use local models (specifically Gemma4 & Qwen3.6). This is an excellent thing to do. Especially that LLMs excel at batching thus you can index
