• Day 0 - Creating Your Own Local Server

  We normally recommend using Amazon's AWS "Free Tier" or Digital Ocean - but both require that you have a credit card. The same is true of the Microsoft Azure, Google's GCP and the vast majority of providers listed at Low End Box (https://lowendbox.com/). Source: 5 months ago

• Replit moves to permanent paid hosting after 7 years of free service

  I get them from the aggregator https://lowendbox.com when companies offer deals; some have been great, some poor, but all very cheap; I think $14/year has been a decent one. Although my current one only has 512MB RAM and isn’t enough for Rust to compile Scryer Prolog. Prolog, a language first run on the computers of 1971 and standardised around 1998. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Tech Independence

  FWIW, I recently found a VPS offering for $1.41/month (!) @ 1.5GB RAM & 30GB HDD via https://lowendbox.com/, at https://my.racknerd.com/index.php?rp=/store/black-friday-2022 (please note I have no idea how reliable it is though!). I managed to deploy NixOS there through nixos-infect (https://github.com/elitak/nixos-infect. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Migrating WordPress from Do to Hetzner

  Hetzner is still expensive for a blog. Check out offerings on http://lowendbox.com/ you can get a 4GB/2vCPU for like $45/year. Year, and not month. That is the kind of margin these big brand sellers have. I have been using a couple for the past 3-4 years and been pretty nice so yeah. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• How I run my servers

  If your goal is to minimise costs, some of the cheaper providers that have offers on https://lowendbox.com/ will have reasonable annual discounts. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• The Myth of the Second Chance

  - ex: 1st time immigrants. The myth is in our ability to make "choices" which shifts the narrative to "hard work" rather than luck, perpetuated by the elite or those "who have made it".

• GPT4.5 or GPT5 being tested on LMSYS?

  ChatGPT was configured to not output lyrics and recipes[1]. Later on they removed this from the prompt (seemingly moved anywhere else), but it's highly unlikely that such censorship will ever be removed: any citation of songs is a direct step towards a DMCA complaint, and it would be extremely difficult for OpenAI to "delete" text scattered over the model.
