That doesn't seem that weird to me. Good processes lead to good artifacts.

What relationship does the death penalty and genocide have to democracy (or lack thereof)? That seems orthogonal to the definition.

That's not true. Even the liberal interpretation of this recognizes that some people within the geographic boundary are not subject to the jurisdiction. Diplomats and invading armies, for example.

Following the implications of this argument leads to some pretty hairy places. If a person is incapable of reasoning outside of their class/race/gender/etc position, then how is a fair law even possible? Or perhaps the argument implies that people like that constitutional scholar have reached a state of purely detached enlightenment, and thus are exempt from this logic?

Having all the world's knowledge at our fingertips didn't seem to make us any smarter (quite the contrary, from where I'm sitting), so I'm skeptical that having private tutors at our disposal is going to. Perhaps for the ever-curious few, but for most people those "tutors" will probably just end up as another form of entertainment.

Looking at some of the agentic coding benchmarks on the system card[0], pages 117-118, it seems that running it at low outperforms Sonnet 4.6 at any level, and is a good deal cheaper as well. So on low it could be a good workhorse for an Opus-planned task.

I think their last sentence is a pretty clear indicator that they were not being serious.

This doesn't seem like a dichotomy to me. Words can be a byproduct of thought and consciousness while also enabling new forms of consciousness and reasoning.

Clothing enables the human body to do things it couldn't before (staying warm, protecting the skin and feet, etc), but it also couldn't exist without the human body to create it.

I got an email from them with this information approximately six hours ago.

There is also a banner about the price change on their API platform site, at least for me

Are you only considering coding use cases?

Many enterprise use cases, such as simple data extraction, are well served by cheaper models.

My strategy has been to follow accounts that just repost reviews by well respected film critics, usually older ones like Stanley Kauffman or Pauline Kael. Typically they're well written even if I disagree with the take, and they avoid the overwriting problem that even the more thoughtful Letterboxd users are prone to (easier to write a long, rambling review than a concise one). But those accounts get taken down occasionally, usually don't have any reviews for more recent movies, and have spotty coverage even for older movies.

> On Letterboxd, the reviews can be as entertaining as the movies themselves.

Hard disagree here. There are some good reviewers on there but you have to wade through a mountain of terrible one-liners from wannabe comedians. No matter how many of these users I block there are always more of them popping up. I wish they had a character or sentence length filter for reviews that could be toggled on, for those of us who aren't looking for a "Twitter for movies" experience.

Absolutely ludicrous comparison

Reminiscent of when coding agents fail to fix a bug and keep digging themselves deeper into a hole.

Sorry, I meant non-locally.

I'm assuming privacy is not a concern since you mentioned using Deepseek already. The cost of V4 Flash for small tasks is so minuscule as to be almost free, and you don't have to deal with a churning laptop (or even buying a high-end laptop, for someone who doesn't already have one).

I guess what I'm really asking is, what's the advantage of using these small local models if privacy isn't a concern?

Why not just use DS V4 Flash for the small stuff? Very fast and extremely cheap.

Have any major open weight models been "open data"? Wouldn't that entail distributing vast amounts of copyrighted data?

That's because Qwen's flagship models are not, in fact, open weight. Qwen3.7 Max, Qwen3.7 Plus and others are closed weight.

You can use Qwen3.6 35B A3B (for example) on Openrouter with a US-based ZDR provider, because it's one of their open weight models
