Most models are excellent, so cost and latency dominate. It’s great that AI can win maths Olympiads, but that’s not what I’m doing. I mostly ask basic Rust, Python, Linux and life questions. So I did my own evaluation. I gathered 130 real prompts from my bash history (I use command line tool llm). I had Qwen3 235B Thinking and Gemini 2.5 Pro group them into categories.

If you’ve ever found your mind consumed with constant thoughts about food, chances are you have experienced food noise.

Image by Getty / Futurism Cancer It's no secret that our efforts to save the planet from the excesses of global trade are failing spectacularly. Our bodies are riddled with manmade compounds, cities are routinely enveloped by massive clouds of noxious smoke, and glaciers are melting faster than ever before.

New research examining over 20 years of data captured by NASA's twin climate satellites, GRACE and GRACE-FO, has revealed an "unprecedented" level of water loss among the planet's continents, creating "mega-drying" regions across the northern hemisphere. One of these mega regions spans Europe, the Middle East, North Africa, and vast swaths of Asia.
