Earlier quoted context omitted.

When we look at the small models suitable for running locally, by far the best programming model is DeepSeek-R1-0528-Qwen3-8B. It is quite comparable in real world usage even to much bigger models.

Would you mind sharing how you arrived at this conclusion? Was there some benchmark that it really shined at? Personal use?

Personal use, no benchmark, just a vibe.

Comparable to which bigger models?

My previous favourite was qwen2.5-coder.

I think Apple will ultimately destroy the data center, I hope they succeed.

> I think Apple will ultimately destroy the data center I think EVs destroying Ultra Large Container ships had better odds, amd both are extremely unlikely. Dc advantages Apple won't be able to overcome: compute density, cooling, cheap power, physical security to protect the software, scale + bandwidth, lower costs to customers of using contract manufacturers and/or commodity hardware. There is no universe where larg…

It’s easy to imagine a universe where the hyperscalers are in a bubble and they will eventually find a limit to adding classical compute and we will hit peak datacenter and shrink from there.
