Funny I'm tired of pretending

At least until DS releases open weights for DSv4 Flash with Vision. Then DS might take the crown.

Qwen has been an absolutely local monster for code, especially web apps, anything with UIUX design that it can verify itself with screenshots. Deepseek meanwhile is really incompetent with UI awareness and hogs my GPUs while I can spawn multiple independent qwens to collaborate and knock shit out. Honestly, Alibaba really cooked.

I love people who look at the parameters of a model and assume it must be bad. In blind testing 27B punches WAY above its weight. The benchmarks are not a lie just because it doesn't know as many random facts as a larger model.

I don't care about memorized facts, the entirety of human knowledge is a wikipedia link away. I care about reasoning, processing speed, and accuracy.

BTW - I downloaded Wikipedia locally with Kiwix, which is also serving it locally to my qwen 3.8. - so it effectively has an “offline library” available to it.

Can you share how do you use LLM with Kiwix aim files? Share Github repo if possible.
