"coding" is the skill that realizes other skills: it's a delivery medium. The skill to learn is to be able to see and address the problems that will need solving in the medium term. Even before AI, software changes a lot (des

Some effect is real, but it's likely overstated by poor metrics. "Currency" in all fields relates to the recency and frequency with which you dealt with a particular issue. Whether flying on auto-pilot or coding with AI, aut

Was it expected that Qwen is working on this? What are the current alternatives? The TAM for robots is much, much larger than for coding or services, and much more strategic when you think about manufacturing and war-making. The Qwen "

I run many models (but mainly Gemma-4) using oMLX (for caching) on a 32GB M1 max using (gasp) Xcode. For tok/sec response times, I'd say it responds faster than I could read the prompt aloud in many cases (and I'm not consta

Agreed (not sure what you mean by UI-based hosting). oMLX does the caching I need to fit models that are near gross memory, and it handles most of the work in finding usable models. After cobbling together various solutions over months, I

Motors in each wheel eats tires. Personally, I'd rather see FWD with 1 100HP motor in a 2200-lb 4-seater under $20K US, but that will never happen as the supply is artificially constrained to create high-end cachet.
