Oh thank fuck. I thought I was going crazy... My first attempt at local models was a Qwen. A base model. I swear to god all I said was hello and the thing started and never stopped. I guess that's what a filibuster must be like? It was both amazing, yet terrifying. I've a bit more xp now, but yeah Qwen and really really thinky, dear gods ! My colleague got himself an abliterated one and just leave it to run overnight trying to pentest shit in his home network, but I guess I prefer something a bit more hands on, myself.

    Heh. I use Qwen3.8-27B as my main coding agent, and I sometimes feel really bad for it as I watch the stream of thought go by filled with "wait... am I doing this right? What if I'm completely wrong about this? Is this really what I should be doing??" I want to pet it and assure it that it should have more confidence in itself. :)

    But it's the tradeoff that Qwen made to cram that much smarts into such a small bundle of parameters, I guess.
