for quality control, amount of seeders, internal encoders. heaps of stuff to avoid issues like this as well. as someone has said TorrentLeech will cover 99% of people's use cases with buying seedbox as entry only. you only want to get to cabal trackers when you really need top quality remuxes which I don't think you'll get invited without any efforts as well

yeah I think if user keep contributing it'll be helpful for the community as well. I was thinking on the same approach as levels.fyi initially but this is about finding the balance based on the amount of contribution, freshness of data, and I think 30 days for most users are enough for them to get what they need. If they need more then it's more beneficial for the community to get fresh data. this is very new so I'm happy to change things around too based on feedbacks and data

What harness do you all use for Gemini models? Gemini CLI still sucks last time I tried. Maybe PI?

excited to try this out. the thing with new models though even if it claims to be cheaper, sometimes it spent less tokens on different task. I found that with Astra I'm actually not so far off from Opus 5 since it spends much less token to complete a task. The claims in the article that it surpasses Astra on a lot of things is interesting to test though

this is cool for all other non coding task. however I am still stuck on 3.6 flash on my gemini web as a plus user, can anyone else even access 3.7 flash in AU?

i'm still rocking m1 pro with 16gb ram. for all my eng stuff its still snappy for me. that includes some iOS dev from time to time, lightroom classic, much better than my pc with ryzen 9 5900x + rtx 3080 somehow! i haven't even think about upgrading my mac

it seems like 5.6 SOL is better at almost everything than Mythos except Coding Benchmarks (except TerminalBench)? anyone knows why Mythos scores so high on SWEBench are they cheating or are they just optimised better for coding?

at this point I might just try Neuralwatt and see how much request I can get with GLM5.2. I've read a lot of reviews that its very cheap to run using Neuralwatt cloud

what is that moodboard and chart of hypertension in the middle of the article that isn't explained?

This is a great step up in open models however the pricing to support z.ai is not far cheaper than Claude / OpenAI subscription

private trackers are the only way to go nowadays I think. I've stopped using TPB for 11 years now since I joined private trackers. safer, less dead torrents, higher quality

Gpt 5.5 combined with codex is really good. I actually have no doubt whenever I asked questions, plan, or implement a code with it. With opus 4.7, I have to keep double checking because it doesnt follow the CLAUDE.md instruction, it hallucinates a lot, by default it makes things up when it can’t find the answer to something. Its crazy how quickly people are saying that OpenAI is left behind last year when they declared code red and look at where we are now
