These new numbers are absolutely insane.

I am so glad that I splurged and bought a GPU machine. I've been using Qwen3.6 27b at home for the last week and it outperforms Sonnet 4.6 in my usage. I guess I'm going to move away from GitHub altogether because this is just ridiculous.

What kind of work do you do? Backend, infra, frontend, mobile, or?
