It’s a joke. Mt. Scenery is in the Caribbean, part of the Netherlands but not in the flat mainland.

That’s an API design question. What is the more common use case. You seem to suggest they did it for benchmarking reasons only. They could use the option there themselves without changing the default so that is unlikely to be the motivation

So the original link should be: https://artificialanalysis.ai/models/qwen3-8-max?intelligenc... Even then, this seems a much more marginal win than the headline suggested to me.

Indeed, and this Qwen 3.8 max specific page: https://artificialanalysis.ai/models/qwen3-8-max Doesn't have the claim either. Clickbait?

I went to VB.NET first using a previous generation of LLM's (that was quite manual back then) and then from VB.NET to C# or just keeping the VB.NET around worked very well. The code was not highly complex but more than just CRUD. The p

Zero. I don’t think that implies the product is bad though. I haven’t marketed it much yet and I’m not great at it either. Even if it is marketed well, integrating the tool into existing workflows would take some effort. This has nothing to

For him, the cost of editing was much larger. Condensing your writing in his time meant rewriting it more concisely, requiring strictly more time than collecting his thoughts as he went. With LLM's, we are in a new state of the world:
