I can't believe it, but I'm able to do my daily software development work on this model. We have a 500-700k line of code enterprise software suite that I'm devving for 60 hours a week. I've been hunting for a cursor replacement for a little bit now, and was previously toying with Kimi 2.6 and deepseek 4 pro and flash. There are some minor issues I've had with each of those, and Q3.6:35b-a3b actually feels the best for me, anecdotally, of all of them. I can't articulate how insanely excited and shocked I am. I've been hearing the hype here for a bit and I have to say it lived up to it.
