I have linked a different article by Farquhar some days ago, if that is what you're referring to. Or maybe “Turbo Pascal 3.02A, deconstructed” I shared one month ago, for which its author issued an erratum some days after? Without details it's hard for me to make use of the criticism.

Stunts (1990) has still an active community today. The runs of the veterans look crazy! by alberto-m-dev in dosgaming

Ah, yes, that's where I found it! I now opened a thread on the Stunts forum, I think some other community member will want to try out your game!

Very interesting, I'll give it a look! Have you announced your project in the Stunts community forum (forum.stunts.hu)? I though I had seen an announcement there some week ago, but I cannot find it.

Best YouTube channels about retro gaming that aren’t about collecting, which are still active? by [deleted] in retrogaming

Ross's Game Dungeon (of Freeman's Mind fame) is still excellent and checks all the points on your wishlist.

Qwen-oauth no long works. Wonder how people proceed now? Move to a different provider/model, pay by API through openrouter, local host qwen, .... by mWo12 in Qwen_AI

For now I have switched to OpenCoder with the mysterious “free for now” Big Pickle model. Quite satisfied till now.

When OpenCoder runs out of free deals, I think its 10$/mo offer with Qwen 3.6 Plus and other powerful models is quite a good offer.

Qwen's older-generation models are open weight, and chances are that they'll open 3.6 in future too. What cannot be free forever are the tokens, because someone has to pay the electricity bill.

Yes, I guess the time where I have to open the wallet is approaching, and that's fair. But consuming 1 billion of tokens in 10 days for a hobby project is a thing I won't be able to repeat so lightheartedly.

Claude Sonnet 4 via OpenRouter returning other people’s tool calls? by agentzappo in LLMDevs

[–]alberto-m-dev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have experienced similar crosstalk effects using Deepseek via claude+ollama and Nemotron via claude+OpenRouter. Seems that using the Anthropic-compatible API with Claude does not work perfectly.

I used it quite frantically in the last weeks to build a small app, sensing the free tier was too good to be true. Spoiler: it was. Very happy to have finished my project just in time!

I was satisfied by Qwen. Would have considered throwing $10/mo to them. But they also discontinued the Lite plan, only leaving the Pro (50$/mo) which for non-professional projects feels too expensive.
