DeepSeek is both cheaper and better than Mistral.

They also eat plenty of salty processed foods.

I always laugh about those ridiculously large water bottles American carry and how they remind you all the time that you must drink water as if I did need it. I wonder why that happens.

I chat to it in English instead of my native Spanish not only because of performance, but because I cannot stand the unnatural style it has in Spanish.

Thanks! I'll give it a try.

Due to personal and professional reasons I've spent too much time alone last years. I really noticed that I love being with people and that I cannot stand being all day in front of a computer by myself. I also read a lot about history, economy, culture and geography, but on the contrary my background is in Physics and I am finishing a PhD in NLP in which I don't feel very good.

Thanks! I will, definitely.

Thanks for your comment. I spent the last 5 years doing a PhD in NLP that I defend next month, which is a solitary endeavor. I don't feel particularly good at it, especially given the competitive moment of the field. I am trying to transition to industry but landing a job it's being hard. I think that I am good at being a link between people and maintaining a good atmosphere. I realized that I liked people more than I thought before and that working full time in front of a screen is something I would rather not do the rest of my life. On the contrary, I feel gravitating toward social sciences, economy, culture, governance and stuff that is not very close to my professional/studies expertise.

Anybody knows whether this discount is applied to the OpenCode Go plan?

The hardest thing is to know what's your best fit. Any advice?

I struggle to call that art, maybe it's prejudice. Illustrations? Sure. Graphic design? Whatever. But art? I cannot.

Same thing, being Spanish the Basque Cooperatives movement is fascinating. Do you have any recommended read about it?

Those are either copies or bad. I think the difference in quality and originality is huge, even if they can create plausible looking images in already invented styles.

Calling AI-generated images art is a stretch. Same thing with creative writing. It can make some low-cost illustrations and writing, but it is very far from decent art. Compare those results with their amazing coding or math capabilities.

Sure, he seems like he's focused only in research, so this is the easiest way for him to do it.

I would rather call them a cult.
