Hey guys. If you want free #opus5 or #gpt56sol via API just sign up using this link - 200$ in tokens - agentrouter.org/register?aff... Only strict requirement is to sign up using a github account older than 2025! I've used more than 500$ in the past. Only downside - it is really slow :)

Cheap Self-Hosted Kubernetes on Hetzner Cloud
This blog’s starter project can be found at github.com/qstarsit/hcloud-kube-hetzner\nKubernetes is a brilliant workload API, the community has built a highly extensible standard which abstracts the underlying machines and infrastructure from our application deployments. However, the cloud-native ecosystem can come with a sense of vendor lock-in. Functionality like managed load balancing, seamless node autoscaling, extensive storage options, integrated networking, and polished operational tooling are what you pay a premium for.\n

The EU is about to classify AWS and Azure as gatekeepers under the DMA. This is expected to lead to requirements around interoperability and data portability with other cloud providers. Given the EU’s push towards data sovereignty, this will make it easier to migrate off of US big tech clouds.

1/ Just launched LoopTroop – AI that actually gets the PR right Most AI coding tools chase speed and you end up with code that’s close but not really what you had in your head or directly AI Slop. I wanted the opposite, to focus on quality over speed so the result actually matches the idea.

In my 15 years helping build a $100B revenue business and scale cloud infrastructure with Amazon Web Services (AWS), I saw firsthand what happens when demand for compute outpaces the physical infrastructure behind it.
Data centers, power, and connectivity have all too often been built on separate tracks. In the unprecedented infrastructure build-out of the Al era, that fragmentation has become an industry-wide bottleneck. This is slowing down the benefits of Al for enterprises, startups, governments, non-profits, and citizens worldwide.
That's why I'm excited to work with KKR to launch and take on the role of CEO at Helix Digital Infrastructure.
Helix brings a new approach to infrastructure delivery, integrating data centers, power, and connectivity to help hyperscalers meet accelerating Al demand with greater speed, scale, and certainty.
Supported by KKR's leading infrastructure platform and launched with founding partners Kuwait Investment Authority, NVIDIA and Vistra Corp., Helix will operate as a new company that combines the assets, capital, and hands-on technology expertise needed to accelerate Al infrastructure deployment.
