alt Hacker NewsBit unrelated, I realized that z.ai gives you access to deepseek 4 flash. It's incredible how well it performs when given a detailed spec. I'm not sure I've seen a model one-shot like that, and I was already impressed by gemma 4's speed and efficiency.
Deepseek flash (especially after the recent update) has to be one of the most slept-on models. Price-performance is ridiculous, and its available on a number of cheap coding subscriptions
