Uber burned its entire 2026 AI coding budget in 4 months - $500-2k per engineer per month
Uber deployed Claude Code to engineers in December 2025. By April 2026, the company had consumed its entire annual AI budget - not because the tool failed, but because adoption took off faster than anyone planned. The numbers: 95% of Uber engineers now use AI tools monthly. 70% of committed code or

Pentagon inks deals with Nvidia, Microsoft, and AWS to deploy AI on classified networks
The Pentagon has struck deals with OpenAI, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Nvidia, Elon Musk's xAI, and the startup Reflection, allowing the agency to use their AI tools in classified settings, according to an announcement on Friday. At the same time, the Defense Department has left out Anthropic - which

Qwen3.6-27B vs Coder-Next
Burned about 20 hours of side-by-side compute on my two RTX PRO 6000 Blackwells trying to get a definitive answer on which of these two models was clearly better. As with many things in life, after many tokens and kWhs later the answer was "it depends." These models in the aggregate are actually cr
I made a visualizer for Hugging Face models
I built [hfviewer.com](http://hfviewer.com), a small tool for visually exploring Hugging Face model architectures. You can paste a Hugging Face URL and get an **interactive visualization** of the architecture, which can make it easier to understand how different models are structured and compare th
Solidity
Hey all! I have spent the last few evenings building a modern solidity LM with sota CoT/tool calling runs in the later stages. Question: what are you all using for solidity or smart contract development? I find the current SOTA models don’t have a tremendous amount of training data in this small n

Everyone talks about agi timelines, hardly anyone talks about compute gatekeeping
It feels like most of the discourse here assumes the only thing that matters is algorithmic progress or when exactly agi drops. but if compute access stays concentrated in a tiny set of players like open ai and microsoft, isnt that bottleneck just as important as the model breakthroughs themselves?
Qwen3.6-27B vs 35B, I prefer 35B but more people here post about 27B...
I've had better results quality wise with 35B AND it's much faster than 27B. Just curious cause I see lots of people post about 27B. Am I doing something wrong with 27B? Use cases are multi-stage pipelines for coding and internet research. I also use Opencode a bit. All use cases I normally app

Does the "6 months gap" still hold?
Hi. It is quite a consensus that the "jump" in quality of agentic development happened sometime in December 2025, transforming from "nice to have", to actually performing. It was also long discussed that open source models lag the state of the art by 6 to 12 months. Now, does it mean that to ge
