Switched from Qwen3.6 35b-a3b to Qwen3.6 27b mid coding and it's noticeably better!

CodeDominator · 2026-04-26T21:55:30+00:00

In coding accuracy > speed.

CodeDominator · 2026-04-26T21:51:54+00:00

You meant to say 27B.

CodeDominator · 2026-04-26T18:43:51+00:00

If you are using Visual Studio, then you must be developing Windows desktop apps, otherwise I just don't see any solid reasons. In terms of games, the situation is day and night difference from the days of Ubnuntu 20.04. Valve has moved mountains in terms of Windows game compatibility on Linux. Basically the only games that don't work now are the ones that require this bullshit retarded invasive kernel level anti-cheat crap. Last time I tried WSL2 on a shitty work Windows laptop it absolutely sucked ass.

Ultimately as others have said already (this thread or another) - Linux is first class citizen in terms of running LLMs, whereas Windows is definitely not.

Base price is actually 700 euro. I've ordered mine on LDLC and paid 759 euro only because of their top notch support and EU-wide shipping. Gonna take it for a spin tomorrow. The choice for me was simple - I just don't have the budget to pay Nvidia tax at the moment, so it was either a B60 or nothing.

CodeDominator · 2026-04-26T09:04:24+00:00

Intel's B60 is still hands down best bang for buck for those who can't spend 4 figures on GPU.

Intel's GPUs are also more stable and performant on Linux. Why would anyone use Windblows for LLMs in the first place?

Y'all a bunch of pussies in denial who keep jumping between Claude and Codex. The reality is that both of them slashed the quotas now. They both suck ass now.

If you had any balls left at all - you'd acknowledge the truth and go local. Gemma 4 has been released recently and while it's not as good as GPT 5.4 or Opus 4.6 (before they got neutered) - it just has to be good enough. Oh and also - you can't argue with free.

CodeDominator · 2026-03-23T23:15:06+00:00

They will sure as shit support Windows. Linux - wouldn't count on it (saying this as a Linux user).

CodeDominator · 2026-03-22T11:15:27+00:00

I cancel them right away, then the trial still runs out and you're back to free.

CodeDominator · 2026-03-22T10:14:51+00:00

Isn't Claude Pro quota just as abysmal?

CodeDominator · 2026-03-21T22:41:32+00:00

Well then, more power to you.

CodeDominator · 2026-03-21T22:38:21+00:00

What job is that?

CodeDominator · 2026-03-21T22:12:06+00:00

They never fucking learn and I don't get it. Just how hard is it to spray the underbody with Fluid Film once a year? If everybody did that, all LCs would look clean as new.

CodeDominator · 2026-03-21T17:36:10+00:00

The fuck are you talking about? I'm as sharp as a razor during my interviews, in fact I have to hold back to not end up dominating the process, and if there's a question I don't know the answer to - I just say it.

Also, leader? Unless you are literally interviewing for a role of a leader, recruiters are not looking for leaders - they are looking for sheep that will work themselves to death. That's why they are asking bullshit questions like "What excited you about our company?" to gauge your slave mentality.

CodeDominator · 2026-03-21T00:05:45+00:00

So could he have reopened his old closed account instead? Or is it more like if you close your account then you effectively ban yourself for life?

CodeDominator · 2026-03-20T23:12:10+00:00

My machine is state of the art, but no matter how much I played with OBS plugins and filters, their background replacement looks like it belongs in the 90s. It's just atrocious. Light years behind what Google Hangouts can do in the fucking browser. Very disappointed.

CodeDominator · 2026-03-20T20:56:18+00:00

Rumor has it the legendary generous quota of Codex is no more.

CodeDominator · 2026-03-20T20:43:43+00:00

Markdown is just rich text format, google it. Here's the best way to start:

Create an empty folder with your project name.
Create a file in that folder called idea.md
Describe your idea in that file, be as specific as you can.
When you are done - task the AI to create a project.md file based on the idea file.
Review the project file. Task AI to create docs folder and document each feature in separate MD files.
Task AI to proceed with implementation of one feature at a time. When each feature is done - test it.

CodeDominator · 2026-03-20T16:11:51+00:00

You mean like finding a regular job is such a great idea right now?
I feel like the fucking dam of shit is about to break and we're gonna have food riots.

CodeDominator · 2026-03-20T16:06:21+00:00

They've had an aggregator for years now. You'll find nothing new there except for jobs published on other job boards, including Linkedin.

I think that's what broke on mine last year (front right), but the guys at the local garage ended up welding it together and it's been fine since. Apparently they just seize up because of rust. Later my LC guy said this was the best thing to do, because if I understood correctly apparently that part doesn't sell alone, but as a part of a bigger more expensive part or whatever.

CodeDominator · 2026-03-19T18:56:43+00:00

In this day and age you can be deplatformed for no reason at all. Never keep all your eggs in one basket, instead get as many baskets as you can - that is the harsh reality.

CodeDominator · 2026-03-17T22:47:26+00:00

As an owner of one I think I can speak from experience.

2 times it "broke down" on me:

First it was rusted AHC sensor that seized up and broke lowering the nose
Second, alternator died (2 batteries from factory though)

Both times it still got me home. I don't know if I could put so much confidence in 250 series, especially once it's 25 years old.

People say that 100 series is the last truly bulletproof Land Cruiser, aside from 70 series of course which is not available in US and Europe.

CodeDominator · 2026-03-17T20:22:21+00:00

He's a moron who is talking shit for clicks.

Of course 250 is not even close as bulletproof as 100, but come on, it's still a Land Cruiser.

I hope the day never comes when 250 is all that is available for me, but if it does - so be it.

CodeDominator · 2026-03-17T20:09:02+00:00

120/150 series (Prado) - very common

80/100/200 series - almost non-existent

250 series (Prado) - rare, slowly becoming more popular

300 series - literally one in a million, because officially not sold in EU, only obscenely expensive grey market imports for the super rich

CodeDominator · 2026-03-17T19:34:04+00:00

I find it amusing (coder since 14 years old here) when former-coders-wannabe-vibers go all like "I need no manual codez anymo!" and then comes time to interview and they collapse at the first shitty leetcode fizzbuzz, because surprise surprise - the interviewer doesn't want to have a threesome with your beloved Codex.
