"Running DeepSeek v4 Flash at original quality used to require either cloud setups or down-quantized versions to squeeze into a home computer's RAM. This update allows users to run the original model locally at high speed." --Search engine summary 😅

DwarfStar branchk "ds4f-mxfp4" now can run the lossless MXFP4 DeepSeek v4 Flash GGUF I published on my Hugging Face account. It rocks even with SSD streaming in 128GB systems at > 20 t/s in case you want to try the *actual* DS4F weights released without any quantization.

My biggest piece of advice to people switching to Linux is do some research before picking your first distro and learn the ins and outs of the distro. Distro hopping can be fun but hopping at the first hurdle on your distro means you'll never learn the distro and lead you into a vicious cycle.

Twitch is also cool You can co-work with people in Japan, Germany, next door. They're very friendly. Ignore the stupid channels. Then the challenge is to actually start...to study. Just embrace the discomfort, they say. Mmmmok. Let's focus on our work and make the world better! lol

What murders flow state for me is that I have ~20 projects, and often have to return to a repo after a few months to continue work. Which of these similarly-named files was the final version? How did they interact? Questions so ugly I flinch & stop working. Today, I just asked CC to figure it out.

I think yes and no. I personally enjoy the process of typing out code manually, and I miss some of that with assisted coding. But what I like even better is not breaking flow state, and working with LLMs makes that so much easier.

👆 What this does ia just really executing the commands after each other, so it's stateful, works everytime. You can even do pdb debugging by block selecting python -m pdb my/script.py b 235, "error" in result which will run and break on that line with that condition

Two things changed the way I work last year. One is ofc Claude Code and there's no news there. The other one is switching to working with command line notebooks (write commands on left split, block select and execute on right split). It does make a big difference. 👇

To be fair, there is still sort of a distinction because it will rerun the standard testing suite each time it makes an edit. CC won’t typically inspect and interpret output unless explicitly instructed.

The first time I passed CC a list of tests in the planning specification I made a fussy distinction between * things that can be tested “automatically” and * things that require the user to identify a sample input file and then inspect the output But lol that can all be done “automatically.”
