Love that this exists now, thank you and nice read.
FWIW, didn't have any luck with the generator at the bottom, could be user error.

Cerebras is serving GLM4.6 at 1000 tokens/s right now. They're probably likely to upgrade to this model.
I really wonder if GLM 4.7 or models a few generations from now will be able to function effectively in simulated software dev org environments, especially that they self-correct their errors well enough that they build up useful code over time in such a simulated org as opposed to increasing piles of technical debt. Possibly they are managed by "bosses" which are agents running on the latest frontier models like Opus 4.5 or Gemini 3. I'm thinking in the direction of this article: https://www.anthropic.com/engineering/effective-harnesses-fo...
If the open source models get good enough, then the ability to run them at 1k tokens per second on Cerebras would be a massive benefit compared to any other models in being able to run such an overall SWE org quickly.
This is where I believe we are headed as well. Frontier models "curate" and provide guardrails, very fast and competent agents do the work at incredibly high throughput. Once frontier hits cracks the "taste" barrier and context is wide enough, even this level of delivery + intelligence will be sufficient to implement the work.
chrisfrantz commented on Migrating to AWS in production with zero downtime loops.so/engineering-blog... · Posted by u/chrisfrantz
We reached some amount of early product-market fit and the “starter” stack that served us well early on: Vercel functions, Supabase Postgres, and a mix of queue services, started hitting limits. Function runtimes capped at 15 min, cron jobs had to be public, queues kept sun-setting, and the database had no automatic fail-over. We were spending more hours nursing infra than building features.
Over the next six months we rebuilt on plain AWS: EKS for the Next.js app, Aurora Postgres in-VPC, SQS for jobs, all managed with Terraform. A Cloudflare Worker mirrored an increasing slice of live traffic to Kubernetes until everything looked solid, then a DNS flip made it the source of truth.
Supabase data flowed into Aurora via logical replication; once lag was near zero we swapped the connection string and retired the old stack without users noticing. Costs are predictable now and we control most knobs.
We put this post together as a bit of a retro and to help if you're evaluating a similar path for your company.
chrisfrantz commented on Unlimited Transactional Email Sending loops.so/updates/transact... · Posted by u/chrisfrantz
We released an update to our pricing at Loops and along with increasing free limits, we made transactional email sending available at no additional cost on any paid plan.
We removed our previous plan tier of $1 per 2,000 sends.
Example: You have 4,000 users and you send an automated onboarding email along with an occasional product update every month or two.
Your product also generates daily rollup emails, along with product notifications, and other standard transactional emails, maybe 100,000 emails a month total.
That's now available at the same price, just $49.
Say next month you gain another 500 users and you send 200,000 emails. That's still just $49 a month.
Our goal is to help you send all your emails from one platform for a single price point and this gets us one step closer.

We recently did some work improving our email deliverability to large institutions that use Rspamd as part of their corporate firewall, this is our write-up on that experience.
