The skip-to-the-end answer: Context7 MCP is so good it seems like magic, even to many well-informed, highly capable hackers. Simply wildly good for libraries and SDKs. All it takes to start using it is to add the MCP provider to your agen

How do you image the SSD? Isn't it kind of the same issue as with imaging a USB stick?

Yeah, clock times are a notorious challenge for LLMs due to training data almost always showing aesthetically appealing times like 10-and-2. An entire thread on this subject previously unfolded on HN but I can't find it at this time!

I just tested it out, very impressive results. I wonder what the Queen team did behind the scenes to make this work so well. https://chat.qwen.ai/ (Select "Image Generation" and be sure to use the Qwen3-235B mode

Qwen3 issued such stupid commands I wouldn't count it in the same universe as Claude or Gem. I still need to test out Kimi, though- Cheers!

But only a few models can actually execute commands effectively.. what is it, Claude and Gemini? Did I miss any?

Yep, if Samsung phones are now just as closed as Apple, well.. Android phones certainly aren't superior in many dimensions. Bummer.

Is the flash market a monopoly, or why is price per unit of storage so stagnant in recent years across both HDD and SSD/NVMe when this feat is possible? Flash manufacturers not feeling an incentive to compete?
