alt Hacker NewsHuh, doesn't DeepSeek take the longest because it overthinks way too much? Haven't tested this release yet but was very disappointed with past ones because it takes an eternity to do anything because it constantly overthinks and questions itself way too much instead of just starting.

I think, as long as you don't set thinking to max and use a fitting system prompt, it's not a big issue.

Yes, and this version explicitly addresses that

LLMs don't think.
It thinks a bit more, but if the cache reads are free or almost free, and it blasts through 10x faster than GPT Sol/Terra/Luna, it doesn't really matter. Just don't use the max thinking for implementation, go with high or low.
