I been using open models for 100% of my coding. 1/2 of the time I’m using local open models like qwen 3.6 or Dwarfstar if it’s sensitive code I don’t want the internet learning from.

I don’t miss using frontier models at all. GLM5.2 and Deepseek V4 pro are both equal or beats sonnet. I haven’t had to use Opus for awhile now.

Error, not like how the Chinese does it. It’s literally an integrated government+ industry. There is a worker pipeline and a parts pipeline that intergrates everything with the help of the government. In the us, you get a couple of bucks off a car. Not the same.

I live in Taiwan and we are actively shutting down our nuclear facilities. Now the majority of our electricity is from fossil fuels.

I much rather work towards clean energy but at the same time only use nuclear power.

Idiocracy is one of my favorite movies. When it came out, it was far below 50%, but after some of the things on the movie started becoming true, it became popular.

Bug vacuum. Initially bought it for my wife so she can suck up spiders in the house. Then I realized I didn’t like squishing them either and now it sits in a prime location in the house.
