Poolside's Laguna S 2.1 is a small open-weight coding model that punches well above its size

From the source

Poolside has released Laguna S 2.1, its third coding model in three months. Rather than rely on raw scale, the company trained it to keep checking its work, revise failed approaches, and avoid giving up too soon during long agentic sessions. The compact model beats several much larger rivals in benchmarks. Poolside says it also solved a math problem that had been open since 1975 for under 10 cents.
