I was reading a lot on Reddit how people shit on Claude Code that they use whole 5h usage with few prompts, but didn't really believe it, as I use it at work and was never even close to using it all.

Until today.

On daily basis I use Claude Sonnet 4.6 and it's ok. But I switched to Opus today to check something.

I have 2 observations:
1. It's really fast, faster than Sonnet for me
2. With 2 not that complex prompts I used 30% of my 5h usage 🤣

How is it that China can speedrun and massively build, grow and use their own tech (both hardware and software) while we in Europe can just talk for years about the same thing and do nothing?

It's been around 7 years since #vim and later #neovim are my main text/code editors and to this day I don't get this micro management and/or gamification of configs. Spending hours working on it just to cut 17ms from startup time.

I'm doing updates (including plugin updates) to my config very rarely, as I don't treat it as yet another project to care about but as my editor that I want to just use.

LLMArena and specifically their coding leaderboard, where 27b Qwen model is 20 positions higher than 675b Mistral model shows really good, how slow Mistral is and how much they are lagging behine Chinese open source competition, not even mentioning American SOTA models.
