NicoJuicy··on Ox Alpha – A mysterious new AI model
Oh yeah, and the model really prefers reading past sessions before it even starts...
NicoJuicy··on Headlong: A Microharness for Persistent Agents
Used an llm to re-order my stars on github into appropriate lists ( it became a mess after LLM and the different type of projects).

I had all of those projects already in my favorites except Headlong. Arround 4k+ stars.

And probably WIKI ingested 300 of them for recipes and best practices.

Haven't used the WIKI yet though...

NicoJuicy··on Ox Alpha – A mysterious new AI model
Tbh. I think it's a chinese model ( cheap and inefficient in execution, but it's the best cheap ( free ) model atm. Daily driver for my hermes atm, but albeit slow in execution).

NicoJuicy··on Cloudflare's AI Psychosis
For an article that claims to know Cloudflare, I don't think he does.

Cloudflare build from the bottom up. First the SDN ( Software Defined Network), then the products on top. The first one was logical: CDN + DDOS.

All the rest continued to build on top of the SDN - Workers, D1, ... But once they have the full stack ( which happened arround D1), it was time to let others build on top of Cloudflare.

That's the current stage ( Cloud 2.0), that was always the goal. It's even in their ticker ( NET ).

In practise, AI could be a godsend. A total new foundation for software where the Cloudflare stack is a perfect product fit( disposable compute, where others will protect their compute with long running compute contracts). I can't blame them to try to seize the opportunity.

Tbh. I feels like the author hasn't actually adjusted to how Cloudflare is building it's cloud ( eg. how powerfull Durable Objects is).

PS. A big outage is a long time ago... ( we use them, I remember the issues those days and the post mortem, a lot became more stable as far as I noticed).

NicoJuicy··on We scaled PgBouncer to 4x throughput
Yandex actually split up because of disagreement with the Russian governement and the war.

NicoJuicy··on Cloudflare launched self-managed OAuth for all
You don't know Cloudflare?

Their first products were production grade examples of the SDN that required a lot of bandwidth (DDOS/CDN).

The cloud is a logical continuation.

Their business was always the "internet", see their ticker => NET.

Dev free is part of the marketing cost and would stay under the current leadership.

NicoJuicy··on GLM 5.2 vs. Opus
For those praising GLM 5.2, can anyone confirm?

Tried with 2 harnesses and it seems bad + slow

NicoJuicy··on US holds off blacklisting DeepSeek, more than 100 firms deemed security risks
I have the feeling MiMo v2.5 Pro uses a lot less tokens and so a lot cheaper ( comparable pricepoint)

NicoJuicy··on RTX 5080 and RTX 3090 Setup: 80 Tok/s on Qwen 3.6 27B Q8
It was from a belgian second hand market, probably they didn't knew what they had.

Works flawlessly

Rtx 3090 24 gb set me back 390€ a year ago ( 2nd hand)
NicoJuicy··on Show HN: Plannotator – annotate agent plans, diffs, and HTML
I didn't saw your post, but plannotator is really nice!

I've been using it since someone of Cloudflare on x mentioned it. Nice work man!

NicoJuicy··on Cloudflare Flagship
Deploy to master ( microservices)
NicoJuicy··on I moved my digital stack to Europe
Opensource is not us owned
NicoJuicy··on Amazon workers under pressure to up their AI usage are making up tasks
It was literally the king that wanted it as personal venture. Belgium took over because he was very/too bad ( you're right that the governement was involved, I stand corrected).

Healthcare and infrastructure was then build too, but the relation was already scarred and well, it's not easy to reset everything.

NicoJuicy··on Amazon workers under pressure to up their AI usage are making up tasks
Belgians had nothing to do with that, nor the then governement

The king had a side biz

NicoJuicy··on I moved my digital stack to Europe
If you want to sell in Europe now or in the future to any governement ( city, provence, country, ... ).

It means EU sovereign cloud. That's literally the primary concern.

NicoJuicy··on Googlebook
Apple Intelligence is Gemini at this point.
NicoJuicy··on DeepSeek V4 – almost on the frontier
From the EU side. I think we'll make a cost comparison between the US ( where it's leaders are doing weird shit against the EU and pro Russia) vs China ( who at least gives cheap models and doesn't actually tries to take over an entire European country).

US has too much influence atm. I'm ok with switching between "bullies".

NicoJuicy··on DeepSeek v4
Based on what is he smart? Every objective datapoint says he's an idiot that fails upwards.

The only thing he was successful in, was literally exaggerating and overselling his capabilities ( eg. He directed the apprentice, it's fake)

NicoJuicy··on DeepSeek v4
That's also the current US administration.

Luckily laws still stand somewhat.

( And Trump ain't smart enough)

He's actually too proud about it to hide it.

The answer is and always has been "nukes" unfortunately.
NicoJuicy··on Ask HN: Why Opus4.6 was silently removed from Claude Code?
Cancelled Claude, too expensive for what it is and found much better alternatives price-wise.
NicoJuicy··on Vercel April 2026 security incident
Asp.net 10 and vertical slice architecture is good and clean
NicoJuicy··on Migrating from DigitalOcean to Hetzner: From $1,432 to $233 With Zero Downtime
Depends on the app and how long downtime would take.

Deploying a new docker instance or just restoring the app from a snapshot and restoring the latest db in most cases is enough.

NicoJuicy··on Cloudflare Email Service
They are working on it

Source : post on x from an employee

Side note: the bills from cloudflare are much lower than the ones from AWS/Vercel when there's a mistake. The most I saw passing by was 150€, with Vercel and AWS > 10 k.
