@Aaronontheweb When integrating .NET app with some 3rd party SDKs, have had the need to download 3rd party SDK source for extra context, but once the SDK is referenced in a prompt the model has the extra context to get code pretty close to a production ready implementation.

@Aaronontheweb are you using the stock qwen models or unsloth tunes? I've mostly been running opencode + openspec + unsloth on Zorin OS VM homelab -> to a 4090 GPU + LM Studio over network. and it's been absolutely great and stable so far.

@DanJSum It's so cool, thank you 🙏I know it's not a huge deal for most people, but for me, it was my last programming goal to make it on the top 100 at least once. Just one small dent in helping everyone build better software. 🎉

@elonmusk @grok Austrian economics is real economics that describe how an economy grows and why it doesn't. Keynesian economics is just more hair of the dog.

@mkristensen Implement the ability to check out an incoming Pull Request from a GitHub user (who forked). IIRC, this was present in the GH extension but got dropped when GH integration went native.
