China just open-sourced a trillion-parameter model that burns fewer tokens than your favorite "efficient" US model.
Ling-2.6-1T is now public, inspectable, and benchmarkable.
The closed-model moat just got smaller.
King Charles US visit has been far more effective than many anticipated.
The decision to gift Donald Trump the “Trump bell” from HMS Trump was a masterstroke.
Symbolic, personal, and diplomatically astute.
State visits often blur into insignificance, but this one feels different.
I feel like the world has underestimated King Charles diplomatic ability.
I just had DeepSeek V4 find and fix 8 memory leaks that were causing crashes in code written by Claude Opus 4.7.
DeepSeek found them all and fixed them in minutes, at a total cost of maybe three pennies.
DeepSeek is amazingly good at coding and bug fixing. And it costs almost nothing to use, even the Pro version.
Best harness? OpenCode.
@hgh62382923@EricLDaugh The joke is that Americans speak English because of the English. If they didn't show up in North America then the French (and possibly the Spanish) would have had the continent to themselves.
🚨 LMAO! KING CHARLES playing his hand at dropping zingers!
“You recently commented, Mr. President, that if it were not for the United States, European countries would be speaking German. Dare I say that if it wasn't for us, you'd be speaking FRENCH!” 😂
you don’t realize how CHEAP DeepSeek is until you use it all day and pay the price of a bag of chips.
DeepSeek V4 Pro: ~$0.87 / 1M tokens
Opus 4.7: $25 / 1M tokens
that's ~28x cheaper.
Opus is stronger on benchmarks, but at this price gap, stronger has to be A LOT stronger.
