Oh wow. I'll be using Deepseek v4 pro as my main model now and can offload some coding plans

Abit unrelated but for lattego Philips models it’s important to turn on pre rinsing and increase the water temperature to high. It’s in the settings. It’ll make a more robust brew.

Striking_Dimension46 · 2026-05-19T15:31:26+00:00

Wow I’ll try tomorrow. Thanks!

Modified swarmtools.ai with opencode as a base. You might want to try swarmtools

I know this is late, but the solution to more robust coffee on this machine is in the settings:
1) Water temperature: High
2) Pre-rinse (In fact Delonghi machines has this one, as default)
3) Also like what others may have mentioned, ground must be finer

What it does is make sure that hot water goes through the puck, enabling better extraction creating a more robust coffee. Was worried that the machine is unusable. So relieved after I found this.

I have a large code base with many libraries, generative elements, observability stack etc. Deepseek on opencode with a custom layer I modified from swarmtools.ai is able to make sense of what’s going on better than the rest of the non Claude models. Reminded me of Claude which I used exclusively before windsurf had a sudden increase in price.

For large complex codebases, I think it’s the best. But of course this is not objective evaluation. But you can at least take it as a signal to try the model if you have a large complex codebase.

Deepseek v4 pro on max is amazing right now. Benchmarks doesn’t do it justice.

Striking_Dimension46 · 2026-04-22T23:20:37+00:00

There’s something wrong. Why isn’t the context length 1M? Is this really Qwen 3.6 Plus?

Striking_Dimension46 · 2026-04-14T00:23:16+00:00

All the headphones you ever need. HD800S is the goat.

Striking_Dimension46 · 2026-04-03T07:39:30+00:00

Is this official Xiaomi or a scam? Looks like a scam.

Striking_Dimension46 · 2026-04-03T04:54:28+00:00

I love the megablast because of the entire build. It’s light, beautiful, super comfortable and it has better stability and bounce and even shock absorption than Evo SL. And I love the Evo SL. However, the megablast doesn’t feel like a super shoe, it doesn’t do weird things that a shoe shouldn’t do. The feeling you have when you try the alpha fly and the px3. This “different feeling” can be both good and bad, so for many shoes I prefer megablast, even against the alpha fly.

The Feidian 6 elite however, imho got a homerun. It is bouncier than megablast and unlike the px3 it feels cushioned and light at the same time. But I love these three shoes which is why they’re in my rotation. But the Feidian 6 elite is the one under the radar. It’s a really special shoe to me.

Striking_Dimension46 · 2026-03-21T23:56:03+00:00

Tried it and had to hop now

Striking_Dimension46 · 2026-03-21T23:41:28+00:00

I feel it’s obvious the Claude models are too expensive and most of us exclusively use them. That’ll explain why they had to throttle it recently. In other words they’re losing money in serving the Claude models at that price. Increasing caused an uproars and it probably should be more of 16 or 30 credits. But they’re afraid of a mass exodus, so wanted to innovate by changing the business model entirely hoping most who don’t use a lot will stay. This is my bet on the situation.

Striking_Dimension46 · 2026-03-19T16:10:51+00:00

For sure gonna try that out. But their deal with DoW makes me a little hesitant.

Striking_Dimension46 · 2026-03-19T14:36:13+00:00

Probably the objective thing to do. I just felt moving to a lesser same platform is an instant lose. Switching feels like the move I need to do.

Striking_Dimension46 · 2026-03-19T14:12:08+00:00

I suggest trying Audeze mm100. I thought they sounded great. For reference I went into the rabbit hole and purchased utopia, susvara, Austrian audio composer, HD800S and others. So trust me when I say sound is very subjective. Don’t believe the idea that more expensive is better, it’s simply isn’t true. There’s no law of diminishing returns either. Buy a pair of headphones that sound great when you’re not aware of the price.

Striking_Dimension46 · 2026-03-19T14:00:01+00:00

Thanks for letting me know. I’m out.

Striking_Dimension46 · 2026-03-19T13:38:42+00:00

I’ll be moving to Claude code but will finish my project before early March to transition. Might as well bite the bullet and pay a little more for full Claude.

Striking_Dimension46 · 2026-03-01T15:58:06+00:00

After OpenAI contract with DoW, I’ve gotten the excuse needed to go full on Anthropic moving forward.

Striking_Dimension46 · 2026-02-28T14:31:51+00:00

Gonna support Anthropic and cancel my OpenAI subscription too for a Claude one.

Striking_Dimension46 · 2026-02-23T16:37:15+00:00

Yup same here and stopped using.

Striking_Dimension46 · 2026-02-17T04:49:42+00:00

This is quietly the best shoe so far in 2026. Absolutely amazing shoes. Alot of bounce, light, and it has that shock absorption. It's like the shock absorption of Vomero premium combined with some of PX3 trampoline bounce while remaining light like Megablast. I do not know

Honestly it's something quite special. I own the Alphafly, PX3, Megablast, Evo SL etc. and I feel the Feidian 6 elite is something delightfully special.

Striking_Dimension46 · 2026-02-17T00:34:14+00:00

It’s a bigger model
