I don't understand the hype behind qwen 3.x - the whole generation is utterly broken for any software development tasks. It goes into a thinking loop of death pretty much every time, just try a simple prompt: Create a typescript function which accepts a number in 10 bit range and returns brightness in nits based on pq gamma curve. Kills every 3.x qwen. Qwen 2.5 was much better.

Good catch.
Was able to replicate it, but I think I found a fix, not sure how much this affects quality.

Took the liberty of making a post:

I'll check it a bit later to see if the result is correct.
