This my goat bro

When you open a new codebase, your instinct is probably to jump straight into the code. That’s usually a mistake. Before you read a single file, the repository already contains something more valuable than the code itself: its history. Git doesn’t just store changes—it tells a story about decisions, ownership, risk, and team behavior. Here’s a workflow I use to understand a project in…

The Sequence AI of the Week #729: Qwen-Max and the Economics of Trillion-Parameter Inference

One of the most impressive open source models ever released.

Created Using GPT-5

The AI of week title this week belongs to Alibaba’s latest flagship model!

Qwen‑Max sits at the top of a lineage that has steadily expanded capability, context length, and serving sophistication across Qwen‑2.x and Qwen‑3. The Max tier represents a turning point for the program: a production‑oriented mixture‑of‑experts (MoE) system that pushes model capacity into the trillion‑parameter regime while preserving practical per‑token compute and latency. What makes Qwen‑Max notable is not only raw scale but the engineering discipline around routing, long‑context memory, test‑time compute for hard reasoning, and a post‑training stack tuned for instruction fidelity, multilingual reliability, and safety.

Positioning and design goals

The Qwen program targets heterogeneous enterprise workloads: coding and debugging, agentic tool use, multilingual dialogue, and document‑centric tasks such as summarization, compliance review, and contract or codebase analysis. Those use cases impose hard constraints on serving: throughput must be consistent under multi‑tenant load; latency must be competitive with smaller dense models; and the model must remain steerable and safe at the edges. Qwen‑Max’s core design answers those constraints with a sparse MoE Transformer, extended context handling backed by cache mechanics, a dedicated “Thinking” mode that spends extra test‑time compute on hard instances, and a post‑training pipeline that emphasizes obedience to instructions without collapsing into over‑refusal.

Visual Studio Code 1.104, the August release of Microsoft’s code editor, was released few days ago. The new release introduced Auto AI model selection support (Preview feature), allowing to automatically choose between Claude Sonnet 4, GPT-5, GPT-5 mini, and GPT-4.1 models, to get the optimal performance and reduce rate limits. And, user can view the selected model and the model multiplier by…

Combining forces, GSAP & Webflow!

Change can certainly be scary whenever a beloved, independent software library becomes a part of a larger organization. I’m feeling a bit more excitement than concern this time around, though.

If you haven’t heard, GSAP (GreenSock Animation Platform) is teaming up with the visual website builder, Webflow. This mutually beneficial advancement not only brings GSAP’s powerful animation capabilities to Webflow’s graphical user interface but also provides the GSAP team the resources necessary to take development to the next level.

GSAP has been independent software for nearly 15 years (since the Flash and ActionScript days!) primarily supported by Club GSAP memberships, their paid tiers which offer even more tools and plugins to enhance GSAP further. GSAP is currently used on more than 12 million websites.

I chatted with Cassie Evans — GSAP’s Lead Bestower of Animation Superpowers and CSS-Tricks contributor — who confidently expressed that GSAP will remain available for the wider web.

It’s a big change, but we think it’s going to be a good one – more resources for the core library, more people maintaining the GSAP codebase, money for events and merch and community support, a VISUAL GUI in the pipeline.

The Webflow community has cause for celebration as well, as direct integration with GSAP has been a wishlist item for a while.

The webflow community is so lovely and creative and supportive and friendly too. It’s a good fit.

I’m so happy for Jack, Cassie, and Rodrigo, as well as super excited to see what happens next. If you don’t want to take my word for it, check out what Brody has to say about it.
