I find them to be about comparable, but I use them both for coding tasks and I'm happy with each. I like K3

I was actually shocked to see that much improvement on GLM 5.2. I am getting pretty great rates in GLM5.2 right now and I'm extremely happy with the output. I have found Kimi to be generally a little slower but noticeably better at architecture and structuring things. I would have thought is for sure currently more expensive than GLM5.2, particularly with subscriptions etc, but I'm excited for this to decrease further.

Not to mention -

If you switch the view to "coding tasks" on this website:

  Kimi K3: $3.18 per task
  GLM 5.2: $6.51 per task
  GPT 5.6 Sol: $7.02 per task
  Opus 5: 8.23 per task
  Fable: 11.70 per task

So it's pretty dang cheap lol. Nobody is using frontier inference for "office tasks".

I'll also say - scum gave a presentation which was actually very touching. "Love what you do, care deeply about your projects, be with your family". Combined with everything you already said - pretty awesome stuff

Yeah, I mean I guess I could technically connect to the remote SQLite server on my production server. You're right. But I've never done that and that's just not the pattern people use on SQLite

It feels like this "Kimi is a token hog" meme is 100% astroturfed by Anthropic. It's cheap. Believe your own eyes.

(Me not taking this seriously)

I personally find Postgres WAY easier than SQLite simply because of the deployment story. I do a lot of hotfixes and dangerous stuff on personal projects, and having two databases complicates that tremendously. I like being able to run hot code on prod.

For the record, this is not the same reason I like postgres for actual production code

Whatever it cost, he also gave out free copies at BSDC, what an unbelievably cool and nice thing to do

It's a real cartridge

There's a source code reader at the end of the game, tbd if there are transfer abilities, I haven't beat it yet

This makes total sense, thank you. I come from a Python background and appreciate a similar philosophy in Ruby, which is that sometimes it's just nicer and easier to not do typing. It's okay to prioritize aesthetics and ease in code.

I've gone much deeper into type checking since then, but I still like simple, dynamic scripting.

I've heard "functional core, imperative edges" and I feel like that kind of applies to static vs dynamic. I think there's a lot of cases where exposing a scripting language is a perfectly sane and good design pattern.

I'm not sure Emacs fits that category, hah, but it's just so dang useful.

I had not heard of control theory, I appreciate this

Could you elaborate on BIBO? The wiki article is a bit above my pay grade

Thank you for checking it out! Fair warning, it's vibeslop and I really don't have a clue what I'm doing. I have very little background in compilers or FP or really anything. I'm honestly just shocked at how well it works.

If you want to kick the tires on it or even if you just find it interesting, please feel free to reach out! I'm kind of obsessed with this thing now, and would love and appreciate any feedback

This is a good discussion of these principles. Largely inspired by Emacs, I built an interpreted lisp which runs in a web server and stores the AST Postgres. It gives me this kind of malleable computing and a Lispy feel with very little overhead.

Instead of calling an API, agents can just use functions in a REPL. They can also write new views and improve the program if they run into an issue. Honestly, pretty amazing stuff.

Being able to design a program specifically for the workflow I want is pretty neat. There's some vibeslop jank, but Emacs is a little bit jank too.

How about XMPP?

I had the same thought - but maybe it's good? I was thinking that if you have a decentralized store than you can connect to it regardless of dev environment. I've used XMPP for orchestration but I can see ergonomic advantages to this.

I have been using synthetic and my understanding is that they plan on hosting Kimi3. Open models mean Inferrence is distributed

I'm getting a LOT of agent activity scraping my code here, so I figured I'd submit this before Anthropic tries to release their own version lol. Not production ready, not really good for anything other than pointing Claude at it and asking questions about the code base.

How do Kimi's subscriptions work? I find their price structure pretty confusing

Just to be clear this is not a release, lol, I just made it to show a couple buddies. My one friend was saying he learned a lot just by reading code and pointing Claude at it and asking questions about what he didn't understand. It is provided as-is with no warranty, or installation instructions. If you really get stoked about it I could probably clean up multi user stuff a bit to get you logged on, but I think even just the idea is pretty neat.
