   Running Next Flash IQ3_XXS at ~70 tok/s with 100k context or 2 instances of Qwen 3.6 35B A3B IQ4 at ~145 tok/s with 256k all on $500 of ex mining BC-250 boards
   This will be my third update on the bc-250 cluster and for my first forray into local ai I have been having a blast.

   Benefits of using bigger models than Qwen 3.8 flash next?
   Qwen 3.8 27b was the first model I tried on Ninfer at NVFP4 and then shifted to Flash next after seeing issues with 27b such as not willing to yield to instructions set in AGENTS.md or agent skills.

   Qwen3.8-27B on a single 3090: 140 tok/s on code with a custom megakernel
   I've been using Claude Opus 5.5 to speed up Qwen3.8-27B on my PC (rtx 3090), it wrote a CUDA megakernel that is 1.4-1.9x faster than llama.cpp depending on the task/context length.

   Are .ipynb notebooks already outdated in the agentic era? [D]
   Back then, Jupyter Notebooks were a perfect fit for the classical DS pipeline: EDA -> data prep -> fit -> eval -> tune -> save model artefact and notebook.

   Constitutional Gating and Deterministic Recovery for Multi-Agent LLM Negotiation: Ablations Against a Stateful Adversarial Gatekeeper
   We study a three-part control stack - a 5-Pillar runtime constitution, a 4-tier swarm (Director, three-agent majority vote, Monitor, schema hard gate) and Cognitive Annealing (deterministic deadlock detection, atomic purge of the agent-side context, a canonical recovery message) - against a released adversarial Gatekeeper whose acceptance rules are fixed regular expressions and whose LLM only renders reply text.
