what are your impressions?

I got Codex CLI running against it and was sadly very unimpressed - it got stuck in a loop running "ls" for some reason when I asked it to create a new file.

You probably have seen it by now, but there was a llama.cpp issue that was fixed earlier today(?) to avoid looping and other sub-par results. Need to update llama-server as well as redownload the GGUFs (for certain quants).

I hadn't seen that, thanks very much!

Yes sadly that sometimes happens - the issue is Codex CLI / Claude Code were designed for GPT / Claude models specifically, so it'll be hard for OSS models directly to utilize the full spec / tools etc, and might get loops sometimes - I would maybe try the MXFP4_MOE quant to see if it helps, and maybe try Qwen CLI (was planning to make a guide for it as well)

I guess until we see the day OSS models truly utilize Codex / CC very well, then local models will really take off

I would recommend you fiddle with the repeat penalty flags. I use local models often, and almost all I've tried needed that to prevent loops.

I'd also recommend dropping temperature down to 0. Any high temperature value feels like instructing the model "copy this homework from me but don't make it obvious".

How would a USA civil be the best scenario globally? Who knows what wars that would trigger globally

It would also help with sites that can't handle the hacker News traffic load. Happens all the time

Interesting application. Can you share more about your stack and how you are approaching that build?

Not true of Netflix, founder came from PayPal. Apple required founder to leave and learn with a bunch of other companies like Pixar and next.

It's a type of software that lets business manage and automate core processes in one integrated system. Typically linking finance/accounting with operations like sales, inventory and manufacturing.

Interest rates have fallen dramatically over this period, which increases the ratio that is affordable.

High interest with low price has the advantage that you can decide to pay more into the principal, reduce the interest you are paying and so reduce the total amount you are paying. You can’t do that with high price and low interest.

Yes and: You can also refinance later if rates fall.
