GLM5.2 max vs Sonnet 4.6 default for executing a design spec

I have been running a massive bill with anthropic as their models are relatively much much more expensive so I wanted to try out GLM5.2 max.

I recently built mini pmset -a disablesleep app and followed it up with running tests in LLM Arena with generating a 3d render interactive globe (this was my prompt: Build an interactive globe with country highlighting, rotation, zoom, and location markers. Uses procedural texture.)

The video below shows the comparison (GLM5.2 is on the left tab)

Model Input Cached input / cache read Output
GLM 5.2 on Fireworks $1.40 / 1M tokens $0.26 / 1M tokens $4.40 / 1M tokens
Claude Sonnet 4.6 $3.00 / 1M tokens $0.30 / 1M cache-hit tokens $15.00 / 1M tokens

TLDR: GLM5.2 max is cheaper and better for building based on my limited tests.

I built a free macOS app that keeps your Mac alive when you close the lid

At the airport last week I counted the open laptops. Most had dark screens.

Nobody was typing. People were just keeping them open so their work wouldn't stop.

So I built Awake. One toggle in your menu bar. Close the lid, keep working.

- Agents and terminals keep running

- SSH in from your phone

- Downloads and syncs finish

- Spotify keeps playing

The reason most "keep awake" apps don't actually work with the lid closed is

that caffeinate doesn't survive a lid close. Awake uses the one kernel-level

flag that actually does.

Free, open source, one line to install:

brew install --cask pistachionet/awake/awake

Happy to answer any questions!
