Alexey Fateev(@superalesha):2 hours 43 minutes. 442 steps. 5,406 lines of code. The page still does not load 💀 I gave Qwen3.8 Flash Next my standard bench prompt: a voxel Japanese pagoda garden in Three.js, 16,500 voxels, modular source, run it and screenshot it when it's done. Other models finish this one easy. It never opened a browser. Never started the dev server. Never counted a voxel. It spent the entire run fighting its own export statements. petals.js got rewritten 19 times. Not patched, rewritten from scratch every time. water.js 9 times, palette.js 11, lanterns.js 7. It was loop between exactly 2 errors: Export 'update' is not defined in module. 53 times. Duplicate export of 'createPetals'. 10 times. Add the alias and you get the duplicate. Remove it and the export goes missing. In the last 70 steps it flipped between those 2 states 9 times. Twice it deleted the file and wrote it back identical. 85 writes against 7 reads. It almost never looked at what was already on disk. It compacted its own context 4 times and came back to the same 2 errors every time. It stopped with 3 files still failing node --check, all on the same line, update as updatePetals. 2 modules that main.js imports do not exist at all, and one of them is the lanterns file it had written 7 times. Then I gave the same model the same prompt as a single HTML file. It shipped a complete working scene in 1 pass. So it is not a capability wall. The module code it wrote is decent. It cannot hold its own module graph together, and it has nothing that tells it that it is going in circles. 438,737 output tokens and it never once said it was stuck. I spent 3 days making this thing run on my rig. An FP8 KV cache path that vLLM rejects on Ampere in 4 separate places. The 51B n-gram table baked down to FP8 so it fits in host RAM. W4A16 weights, the full 262K context, on 4 gaming GPUs from 2020. All of that works. And then it cannot wire 16 files together. So I'm going back to Qwen3.8 27B as my daily driver until something changes. Could be something in my own build doing this, I'm rebuilding the quant to find out. Either way I'll post what comes back.
