It's here as well: https://api-docs.deepseek.com/quick_start/pricing/

With an unlimited budget, Kimi K3 (which is quite comparable to this Qwen Max imo). With a normal budget/a PC you might already have, probably Qwen 3.6 27B.

Going from 5.5 Instant (which was noticeably bad) to 5.6 Luna is a big jump as well. OpenAI is probably the most prominent among the general public - an advantage in some respects …

Pricing: https://dev.meta.ai/docs/pricing-rate-limits Interesting that they have separate API pricing for "we can train on your data" (whereas iirc most of the big players either m…

The linked qwencloud page has pricing; it's $2/6. https://www.qwencloud.com/models/qwen3.8-max

It seems to only be available in Kimi Code, via subscription, no there's no API pricing. The linked page says it consumes about half as much quota as the 1M version though.

Btw if you do need a permissively licensed model for this task, there are lots out there, e.g.: https://github.com/KupynOrest/s3od https://github.com/Tennine2077/PDFNet https://git…

Agreed, and even SSR always felt like cheating imo. I wanna see someone build a primary radar on an esp 32.

My read is that they're announcing a plan to build non-folding wings to test the geometry they would eventually want with folding wings. Which makes sense but isn't very exciting.

It might be that a lot of the cost doesn't show up in the data because it comes out of your paycheck before it's "yours," in the form of your employer's contribution to health insu…

Parakeet is way faster (on Nvidia hardware) but not quite as accurate in my experience.

There was a fad a while back of building insanely long prompts - tens of thousands of tokens - including having models write prompts for themselves. I always thought it was counter…

I think they're saying that you should build a small business which nets you 85k, not find an employer that underpays you. (Whether this makes you more resistant to being "fired" i…

It goes up - quite a lot - if you take promotions. But, back in the day FIRE used to mean something beyond just being rich - there was an anti-consumerist bent (and expectation tha…

Only if you seek them out (ski resorts and such). I've lived in both of the most expensive major inland cities (Chicago and Denver) and $85k is plenty in both, even for a small fam…

A 7900 XTX is about $850, and the rest of the computer basically just needs to boot Linux. You could easily build such a machine for $1500. Even that isn't strictly necessary - you…

I would definitely not recommend WordPress. If you just want a website for cheap: Bearblog, carrd.co, etc. if you want all the bells and whistles on a platter: Squarespace, Wix, et…

Interesting that many of them lead with clams or oysters. (Perhaps this is still a thing at high-end restaurants, but to have them listed so frequently and prominently is completel…

Proof of what is possible with stripped down/optimized software. Imagine the battery life if they built one of these around something with better sleep power (e.g. an nrf52).

Ha, developers know perfectly well how to choose models - they know that the company is footing the bill and Opus will give them the best result and/or require the least clean-up w…

Only Florida, Maryland, and New York require adults who are new drivers to take any kind of class/instruction. (Most states require it under 18, with a few under 21 or 25.) Everywh…

Yes you can connect keyboard and mouse; Overwatch ( https://www.protondb.com/app/2357570 ) and WoW ( https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iI... ) should both w…

I like that it involves grinding up the tick. Just deserts.

No. I feel the same way, and have started moving to only do hardware-focused side projects. (I would say this works out nicely because I had several ideas on standby, but their cos…
