I Built a Hallucination Gate for My Own Writing. The Bigger Local Model Didn't Catch More

A 40-claim eval for a local hallucination checker on 8B, 9B and 27B. The 27B caught fewer than the 9B, the union of the two small models beat every single model, and a frontier judge finished one claim ahead.

The Open-Model Cost Chart Everyone's Sharing Is API Prices. Here's What Self-Hosting Actually Gets You (Measured)

The intelligence-vs-cost chart making the rounds shows open models winning the value quadrant. True, but the x-axis is API token price. The cheap open winners are 100B-to-1T MoEs you can't run on a desktop GPU. Here's what you can actually self-host on an 11GB and a 24GB card, measured, and where the real ceiling is.

I Added a Verify Layer to My Local RAG to Catch Hallucinations. It Caught Me Being Wrong Twice About My Own Corpus

A claim-verification layer for a local RAG co-scientist, inspired by Karpathy's llm-wiki pattern. I tried to measure whether it catches hallucinations, almost shipped a false finding, and ended up with a clearer picture of what claim-checking can and can't do: it reliably catches values that are absent from the context, misses a real number pinned to the wrong question, and misses a false premise outright, and a model can't reliably referee its own blind spots.

What Actually Runs Well on a GTX 1080 Ti in 2026 (Measured)

The 'GPU poor' narrative says 24GB-and-below cards are eating well now thanks to QAT and MTP. But what about an 8-year-old 11GB GTX 1080 Ti? I measured it: Gemma 4 12B QAT at ~32 tok/s, Qwen3 8B at ~46, all fully on the GPU. Here's the table and where the ceiling is.

MTP Isn't Always a Win: 1.95× on My 3090, but Speculative Decoding Is Hardware-Dependent

MTP gave Gemma 4 12B QAT a 1.95x generation speedup on my 3090. But the same model with the same MTP draft runs 0.87x — slower — on an M1 Max. Speculative decoding is a hardware-dependent lever, not a free switch. Here are the measured numbers and why the draft-to-verify ratio decides it.
