From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Did you try to do this workflow with local models? If so, in your experience what are the better models for this?
We did experiment with local models. They were okay, if a little slow with the resources we allocated for testing. Ultimately though, we paid for copilot. I'm still a little sceptical that it won't leak data, despite the assurances, so I do clean anything sensitive before pasting.
As for best models - generally gpt4 or 5 is my go-to, but the others have their uses. I tend to stick with one until it annoys me, then move on. Claude's pretty good for code help, imo, but there's not really a huge difference between them.
What's your experiences?
I do not use models in general online, but my needs are also much smaller. Max I use my local model for ollama is translations. I am always interested in seeing more focused models so we can use on lower end hardware
