I finally found the time to get back to this and... I'm blown away by how fast this model runs on Strata!😳 11-12 tokens/s on my RTX 4080 and 128 GB DDR4 RAM is insanely cool for a model like this. For comparison: in LM Studio with Qwen 3.8 27B Q4_K_M, I was getting 12.49 t/s.

Welp. Looks like not today🥲 I’ll try my luck tomorrow. Into the game, Mr. Watson, into the game - let’s find the right setting ~

But in the end, I'll go ahead and delete this model and keep Qwen 3.8 (especially since Qwen 4 is expected to be released soon) 27B Q4_0. DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash-1017 is an excellent local model,but running it properly really requires a more powerful setup than what I currently have.

Spending 46 minutes to create a single HTML page with a maze generator is just too much😵 I could literally ask the free versions of Gemini or DeepSeek to do that😺

With the recent wave of vulnerability disclosures, it’s a good time to take a closer look at your own code. Turn your coding agent into a team of security auditors with the open-source skill that seeded Cloudflare’s vulnerability discovery harness. The 6 phase approach: 1. Map the codebase 2. Hunt for vulnerabilities 3. Challenge each candidate 4. Record the findings 5. Verify the findings 6. Report what’s confirmed, rejected, or still needs validation Start your hunt here: github.com/cloudflare/securi…

Well said ☝️
Meanwhile Rockstar refuses to even talk to you if you’re the victim of a cyberattack (happened to me personally) and EA will revoke your entire library over what you say in multiplayer voice chat. There’s a reason Steam is like, one of the only trustworthy digital stores

HUGE 🤯 I like WebStorm (at least, I used it a lot back in the pre-AI era), but good lord, it’s so massive and resource-hungry. It would be really cool if an equivalent in Rust appeared.
OpenIDEA brings IntelliJ IDEA’s workflow to a Rust-powered IDE, with tools for 60+ languages and faster startup using less memory.

Applause for the best (in my humble opinion) local model on the market for small-scale setups😊 It’s great to hear that it will remain open.
🚨官方发声:Qwen模型将坚持开源到底! Qwen负责人刘大一恒明确表态:未来Qwen 4.0、Qwen 5.0将继续开源开放! 他认为,AI的价值不该只属于少数人,而应成为全世界用户都能获取、使用、创造的基础能力——让更多人用得起AI、用得上AI、参与创造AI,最终实现真正的AI普惠。 截至目前,Qwen系列全球累计下载量已突破30亿次,累计开源460+款模型,衍生模型超30万个,稳居全球第一。 开源不是口号,是已验证的实力。 当有人在筑墙时,Qwen选择把大门敞开。 #Qwen #Qwen4 #Qwen5 #开源 #OpenSource #AI普惠 #阿里 #AIforAll #通义千问 #刘大一恒 #阿里巴巴

Your Harness. You Define It. Meet Creator Mode in DeepSeek Harness. Turn ideas into plugins that you can use, from a design workspace to a sandbox game or a 3D LLM visualizer. What will you create?

Picked up and played Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War - Definitive Edition today and god, it feels so good - even just fighting bots in Skirmish mode😹 That long-lost gaming feeling when they were... you know... actually fun. ESPECIALLY RTS GAMES!

It has always surprised me how such incompetent people managed to earn enough money to open their own online store🤔 Especially considering that most of his mistakes were, quite literally, obvious to any gamer.
WHY TIM SWEENEY NEEDS TO RESIGN🔴 Under his Leadership as Epic Games CEO: 🔰Epic moved primary focus to consoles in 2006–2012 because Tim believed age of PC gaming is over, abandoning PC while Valve stayed to evolve it 🔰Tim Sweeney before release of Epic Store emailed Valve saying: “you assholes are telling the world that the strong and powerful get special terms, while 30% is for the little people.” while Gabe replied: “You mad bro?” 🔰Epic Games Store was made to make PC gaming have a better future, but all it did was: - remove features that are customer friendly for the sake of Corporations interest - The most garbage corporate designed basic store ever that took it years to have a shopping cart feature💀 - Paying major games to become EPIC EXCLUSIVE... bringing the console exclusivity idea to PC somehow acting like that's good for gamers taking away their free choice of what platform to use 🔰Tim Sweeney then chose to keep Fortnite off Steam AND remove Rocket League from steam too which obviously heavily harms the player count of both games, and freedom of choice. 🔰Tim Sweeney says age of Singe Player games are over, as games should instead be made under 1 platform similar to Roblox, week after multiple Single Player games get record breaking sell numbers 🔰Tim Sweeney shows how terrible he is with planning how to handle projects, when before release of UEFN, Disney mode, and everything else he kept delaying them atleast 5 times. Why announce a release date at that point? METAVERSE ERA: 🔰Tim Sweeney wants to destroy everything Fortnite became to turn it from a beloved game, into a roblox like platform 🔰Movement animation was changed into "Motion Matching" Which is HORRIBLE for multiplayer skill based games, only used in open world games, but he could care less since this movement would benefit UEFN 🔰Tim also forces a huge change on Fortnite UI DESIGN, getting rid of Everything that made it Fortnite, to become a generic mess designed for a platform and not for a Video Game, as the UI also was designed mainly for Mobile causing it to work horribly or look terrible on console and PC 🔰Tim also got rid of Fortnite art style for the sake of metaverse so he can do infinite amount of collabs and make the design something that would benefit UEFN instead of whats best for Fortnite BR 🔰Fortnite BR resources specially during ch4,ch5,ch6 were taken away to all be fed into creating UEFN or Metaverse game modes, casuing BR to heavily suffer losing everything that made it awesome, like live events 🔰This taking away resources and going full focus on making Metaverse a reality not caring about what makes Fortnite BR special causes DONALD MUSTARD, creator and the visionary of Fortnite to quit, so he can bring his ideas into reality with Russo Brothers instead 🔰All the sacrifices were for nothing since Metaverse modes all were a failure, many shutting down not much after. As those resources could have gone to Fortnite BR instead but were wasted under his leadership 🔰Tim Sweeney refuses to give up on meta slop even after multiple failures, even recently changing UI design AGAIN, to be more favorable for UEFN and less BR 🔰He also bought Rocket League and Fall Guys to help with metaverse modes, both modes horribly failing, as the original games also got ruined under his leadership, many Rocket League major creators quitting cause of Tim Sweeney WHAT METAVERSE ERA CAUSED: 🔰Huge amount of players quit the game because under Tim Sweeney it is getting rid of every reason why we play Fortnite 🔰This led into nearly 2000 EMPLOYEES LOSIGN THEIR JOBS thanks to his horrible leadership 🔰Story Director of Fortnite being part of layoffs sadly too 🔰Fortnite cosmetics began to be the most greedy ever seen in gaming, 5k vbucks for cars, 1.5k for tiny shoes to wear in game, having to buy a digital pet multiple times to change styles 🔰Vbucks got much more expensive to the point it genuinely hurts to buy any now days 🔰Battle Pass used to give 1500 free vbucks, now 800 only 🔰Crew Pack has been getting beyond greedy, from 1000 vbucks to 800. No more owning the battle pass if you cancel mid way, just a mess 🔰Tim Sweeney realizes everyone were right, Metaverse is an impossible delusion SO HE REPLACES EVERYTHING WITH AI THE AI ERA: 🔰Since Metaverse failed cause of costing too much resources, Disney Mode taking too long to happen, Tim chooses an AI FIRST, MAXIMUM AI ACCELERATION future for the game 🔰This causes many franchises to shut down any possible collaboration with Fortnite 🔰Not just code will be ai generated, but there were talks of even ART or everything being made with AI, specially for metaverse modes like Disney 🔰Tim Sweeney wants to forcefully make all of Gaming follow in his path and turn gaming into AI slop HATE ON STEAM: 🔰Tim Sweeney begins attacking Steam for giving customers more information about the purchase they are making, like weather the game uses ai in its creation or not and how 🔰He calls knowing what your game is made with a "Political Thing" Saying how its like asking developers to state if they support democrats or republicans 🔰Tim then attacks saying Steam has been holding PC gaming back, but his reasoning turns out to be an absolute lie 🔰He AI Vibe Codes a new Epic Store to attack Steam with saying it opens 2 times faster than Steam, only to get badly humiliated again, cause day before Steam had a normal update that made their launcher open faster than epic store 2.0 🔰This humiliation makes Tim Sweeney go crazy, begin blocking a huge chunk of people on twitter and fighting anyone possible 🔰Tim Sweeney gets community noted 5 or 6 times IN ONE WEEK, so he begins fighting community notes too saying: - Community notes are political - Another fake Community note - Community notes are drunk THIS GUY HAS DONE NOTHING BUT HARM GAMING AS A WHOLE... GET HIM OFF EPIC GAMES HOLY SHIT💀I could write a whole book with how bad he is at his job
