I use V4 flash as my personal agent. It categorizes documents, organizes my calendar, searches information etc. for pennies. Amazing model. Not very good for programming though.

GLM has issues with tool calls and nested JSON and it wastes tokens pretty often. I see it being a bit above half the price of Opus in a bit more complex eval tasks. With some RL you could probably get the tool calls sorted and the price do

This is a question I am going to get an answer tomorrow with evals. Extremely interesting...

One hour and no updates. Still down.

For me the weirdest is Luna. It costs the same as GLM to solve a task with it, but it just calls the same failing tool over and over again until we cut it out. Now if you look at where GLM stands, or even DeepSeek v4 Flash, things get reall

I've been testing Sol/Terra/Luna now since yesterday, running complex evals on all of them and I feel a bit... mixed on how they perform. The eval is an agent that runs a set of tools and a prompt we can tune separately for d

I use it all the time through Fireworks. The normal version when I pay it myself and the fast one when company pays. It's really fast and I never get rate limited with my daily use.

For me it's only about getting into the local scene more now, to learn the language. I kind of started to finally understand the German inefficiency, the distributed nature of the country and their culture. Now when we bought our apart

Hey. I'm with you there. My German also kind of sucks, but I've had a very successful 15 years in Berlin. The best part is how easy it is to pick jobs from the neighboring countries, like France. You pay taxes here, you commute ma

Depends. I'm more into finding certain masters. And some of the albums are DSD tape transfers. DSD if that was the original recording format, if it was mixed and PCM was needed, DXD flac. And so many CDs of course.

It is not only that. It's the spacing, how the bass sounds, separation of instruments. There's so many interesting headphones in the midrange to try out. Compare the Hifiman HE1000se to Heddphone 2 GT, or to Focal Clear MG and you

Wait, what? I do download everything I listen. And Roon is quite popular in the music communities. How else you can make sure you have that correct mastering of your favorite album?

But try out to stream that mp3 from your home server in lower bitrate to save data, e.g. as opus. And now you suddenly hear the lossy encoding. We store files in the highest quality because it gives us the option to encode the music without

I might be something from the middle. Yes, I did spend a hefty 5000 euros to my headphone setup. And yes it sounds absolutely magical and every day I'm happy listening to music with it. But I also have a large multi-terabyte music coll

We've all been through that no? In the beginning you can do a ton of stuff without reading code. But the LLMs miss all the good abstractions, they just push and push unmaintainable code until at some point you start having more bugs an

Btw. This whole debacle made me to stop installing any Android updates. I've done my best to avoid installing even the security updates, so my diabetes apps continue working in the future. I really need to take the time and go with Gra

It's a great question to send to the DMA authorities: https://digital-markets-act.ec.europa.eu/contact-dma-team_en More of us ask this question, the better we are heard. Except if this is exactly what they want, then w

I use GLM 5.2 Fast from Fireworks and its very fast. Where are you using it from?
82.
by pimeys 3mo ago
Yes. It is very expensive now. I'm still so so happy I decided last summer to bite the bullet and pre-ordered the Framework Desktop 128GB model. I paid 2424 euros in total for this machine. And it can easily run the models discussed in

by pimeys 3mo ago
Exactly. And being able to choose your own tools is much more valuable than having a tiny bit better model.
84.
by pimeys 3mo ago
Yep. I've tried to use the models to build large things for me. You can't trust the code it produces. Even if it works there are parts that are hot garbage, and will bite you later on. I've found out that having an editor ope

I want to run the model in Western servers. And GPT/Opus is paid by the company which doesn't really get subsidized tokens. In the future none of us do, so it's better to trial how the actually adorable models perform.

by pimeys 3mo ago
Company pays API prices so we can use daily the best model for our job without being locked in. Also the team subscriptions started to be more like X per seat + usage...

Oh interesting. I basically chose Matrix because setting anything up with Whatsapp or signal was kind of painful and telegram doesn't make it easy to use encryption with bots. I kind of wanted to see if I can make a Matrix agent from s

I have taken another look on these open models after the fiasco of Fable and GPT 5.6 this weekend and... GLM-5.2 truly is a good workhorse model for daily programming. I consider myself a heavy user of LLMs and a seasoned developer. A typic
