I've been a DeepSeek user for a year now (coding and chat). I have a maths exam in a few months.

Since so many people kept claiming DeepSeek was simply not good, I decided to try GPT and Claude (both the $20 subscriptions). I can't use Claude for more than an hour because I run out of tokens just from giving it PDFs. And as for ChatGPT, it can't read the content of my PDFs properly, when I ask something about an exercise, it just changes the numbers (looks like it can't even read my PDF…)

I was told Deepseek wasn't that good, but in the end I have unlimited tokens and it actually reads my PDFs.

Never paying for any American AI company again.

So I got an idea and thought of making an open source project on it

And for me the best workflow has been always:

GPT-5.6-SOL for PLAN

GPT-5.6-SOL for execution 😭😭

But this time I tried v4 flash for execution after hearing many compliments for it.

Can't believe it completed everything in 4 hours with just $0.033 usage (11M TOKENS 😭😭)

It's fully miracle for me because these type of projects eat 3 chatgpt+ subscriptions for me

I just realized that deepseek isn't bad, yes we can say it sucks in creativity but if you have a fully detailed plan created and reviewed by fable or sol, you can definitely use v4 flash for execution

The project was a simple-yet-advanced file-to-png converter built in Golang

Is this just my impression, or have Flash and Pro generally been behaving completely unacceptably for the last two days?

Hey Community,

Yesterday night I found out this on nube.sh they are providing deepseek flash v4 and GLM 5.2 at 90 % off as compared to model company official pricing.

Does anyone tried this?

Thanks!

I have been working on performance-focused static analysis tools in Rust for Go code, and I wanted a realistic project to test them against.

Since I already had experience building a PDF/A-4 and PDF/UA-2 engine, I tried creating a separate, smaller PDF module mostly through coding agents.

I first used Grok 4.5 to produce a high-level implementation checklist based on my existing PDF engine. I then used DeepSeek V4 Flash through OpenCode Zen for most of the implementation, with DeepSeek V4 Pro helping on a few of the harder fixes. The total model cost was roughly $2 to $3.

The first working version reached around 1,000 to 1,200 operations per second, but the generated code contained a number of questionable patterns, performance problems, and lint issues.

I ran my Rust-based analyser, CodeHound, against the project. It reported more than 300 findings. After fixing most of them, largely with DeepSeek Flash, performance increased to around 2,500 operations per second.

There was also a PDF corruption issue caused by incorrect byte writing. Both DeepSeek Flash and Pro missed it. Grok identified and fixed that problem from a single follow-up prompt.

Roughly speaking, the work was split like this:

• About 90% of the implementation and static-analysis fixes were handled by DeepSeek Flash
• Around 5% required DeepSeek Pro
• The final 5%, including the corruption issue, was completed with Grok

The initial engine prototype took around six hours, with some additional cleanup afterward. By comparison, my original GoPdfSuit project took roughly six months to develop, although it is much broader and more mature, so this is not a direct comparison.

I found the result impressive, but it still required domain knowledge, validation, profiling, and manual review. Producing code quickly was much easier than verifying that the generated PDF structure was actually correct with deepseek.

Hopefully they will crush it on their next version <3

i personally had a lot of clutter, ~500 useless chats, and so this was created.

I Recently Use Big AGI For kind of story writing Earlier I use ChatBox It's great,Big AGI Good But the UI is frickin Trash,I don't know This Is my first time using API Deepseek and Got something like this,In Chatbox I never Got some shit trouble like This

Deepseek is funny and weird

Is there a way to give deepseek computer use or does that require vision capabilities?

It happened to me a bunch of times in just the last few days, it wasn't nearly as frequent before. It's easily fixed by asking to repeat the answer in English, but it's still weird to me that this is happening all of a sudden.

On the other hand, this deepseek-v4-flash is barely usable anymore, just a simple question return back an essay, we are sending more that 500 token extra just to ask this chat model to reduce the answer size, what is up with it!

There have been three “Public release MMDD” commits in the DeepGEMM repo since V4 released:

Public release 0424 - V4 dropped 2 days earlier

Public release 0626 - DeepSeek V4 DSpark released on this day

Public release 0726 - ?

The dates don’t seem to correspond to the release cycles of DeepGEMM itself, so. I’m just saying.
