As someone who does this for a living, the biggest cost with local coding models is the stuff nobody puts in the demo

cost vs benefit matters here, we ran numbers on local coding models and the payoff came later than expected

We tried local coding models last quarter, worked great for small stuff, got messy at scale!

Would love to see actual data on local coding models instead of vibes. Anyone have links

I'm more of an enthusiast than a pro, but local coding models have been fun to tinker with on weekends :)

Is anyone else tired of the hype around local coding models, feels like every other post is about it!
