Speaking of a crappy forum: I packaged phpbb for Docker because there was no good image after Bitnami went under. But not sure what to do with it. Didn't even put it on our hosting site yet. Is this useful for something beyond nostalgia and fun?
100% this. For my own company I mostly build deterministic workflows that may have a simple AI step in the middle using an appropriate Chinese model in a very limited way. I wouldn't want to burn tokens to satisfy some metric.
With this AI is a fallback and not the default. Sounds like large companies have it backwards.
I wasn't able to unload algif_aead on RHEL 9/10 because it's built in, rather than a module.
So here the next-best thing I found: Disable AF_ALG via systemd. Needs drop-ins for all exposed services. Here an Ansible playbook that covers ssdh and user@, which are the main ones usually.
I have a feeling that Codex is also getting lower limits. Got this email just now. Basically they copy Claude's $100 tier.
> To help you go further with Codex, we’re introducing a new €114 Pro tier designed for longer, high-intensity sessions.
> At launch, this new tier includes a limited-time Codex usage boost, with up to 10x more Codex usage than Plus (typically 5x).
> As the Codex promotion on Plus winds down today, we’re rebalancing Plus usage to support more sessions across the week, rather than longer high-intensity sessions on a single day.
Also a user of their CDN, storage and container service for about 4 years.
My experience was more positive. One time I had a minor issue with their storage where I couldn't replace a file or something. This was fairly early after the product launched. They fixed it and gave me free credit for reporting it.
My bet is that phone hardware will be used more and more in mini PCs and laptops keeping the cost down and volume up. We see it with Apple and many Chinese mini PC makers I looked at.
