    Fun reference I tested on 32 GB ram laptop with no extras GPU: llama.cpp: “what is ls”, almost immediate start anserrring at one ~word/sec. Ask opencode with same model (some gwen e4b or something) to check what’s in its working directory: 20 min to response.

    What is this supposed to mean?

    "it spreads up to 50% between nights, so nothing between the lean arms is a finding."

      The same thing as the last word of "That is the difference between 22 and 226 seconds, measured." Techies I know would mostly omit "measured"; the rest would show, not tell.

    Neat article.

    “Chad” initially looked interesting but the minute I saw the ai-written markdown and giant commit I just left. I just can’t bring myself to read someone elses’ slop, regardless of performance.

    If all a developer hand writes is a truthy and readable markdown document, I really don’t care if the rest of the project is vibe coded, but I struggle to get interested in AI generated summaries and docs.

      I for one am excited to learn more about how it spreads up to 50% between nights, and how nothing between the lean arms is a finding.
