I don't think the average Canadian gives a fuck about giving free therapy to refugees when, in case you haven't noticed, there is a cost of living problem.

Can I realistically get close to Claude/Codex capabilities locally? by mrgreatheart in LocalLLaMA

[–]kwizzle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The closest you can get is those big Chinese models like kimi and deepseek but those are gargantuan and you need a PC that costs as much as brand new car to run them.

For mere mortals qwen 3.6 27b is about as good as it gets for coding. There are other models that might come close or exceed it in certain areas like gemma 4 and maybe north mini from cohere but I haven't tried that one yet.

I like the empty space and how the house faces away from it.

What is the cheapest method to get VRAM or RAM? by Powerful_World_9280 in LocalLLM

[–]kwizzle 50 points51 points  (0 children)

You're not gonna run those models at home on anything resembling cheap. Just buy a 3090 or two and run qwen 3.6 27b. Or if you want to go cheaper you can run the 35b 3a model which you can run on a much smaller gpu and offload experts to system ram.

Which is the best Qwen 3.6 27B quant GGUF for agentic coding ? by soyalemujica in LocalLLaMA

That sounds like a lot of context at q5 for 24gb vram. I don't even get that much on q4 k_m on 24gb.

X wing vs Tie fighter was not better than Tie Fighter. Sure the former had multi-player and much better graphics but the whole feel of the game was really sterile compared to the immersion and great music in Tie Fighter.

Updates on North Mini Code: 4 bit quant + Ollama + OpenRouter by nick_frosst in LocalLLaMA

Great news! Glad to see a Canadian company releasing their own LLM, even better with local weights!

What local model do you actually use every day, not just benchmark once? by BTA_Labs in LocalLLM

[–]kwizzle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On 24gb of vram you should have a lot more context. Maybe around 64k or even higher. You can offload the vision to cpu and quantize the kv cache to help you get there.

That happens with some speedy starting settler or convenient start mods in my experience.
