@levelsio @petergyang How much are you spending on Claude Code? Would you consider spinning up a GLM instance somewhere and using that instead?

✨ I think I've been coding almost solely on my VPS with Claude Code for almost a year now All I can say it's just fantastic: - no need to keep laptop open ever - no laptop battery drain - can switch to phone or any other device you like whenever you want to continue (like when you're outside) - it just keeps going all night while you sleep (esp with /goal) - you can start hacky projects from scratch and go live in seconds because you're already on the server which is great to ship things and get it used by people fast (not stuck on your local laptop webserver) - it just feels like living in the future I used to code on my laptop, test locally, then push to GitHub, then it auto pulled and deploy to production, that'd take me ~1 minute to get a new feature out But then when I bought a new Mac Book Pro a few years ago I was too lazy to install a local Nginx environment, so I just started pushing to prod and everything went fine, and I sped up deploying to about 3 seconds from laptop to server, which people called me crazy for too But now with Claude Code on my VPS in the last year, it just live edits on my production server, which sounds like it should go wrong but it just doesn't, it's very careful and only twice in 12 months messed up which meant my site didn't load for 10 seconds which is OK If I wasn't working solo, like at a big company, I' think I'd recommend the same workflow but with a staging server, so it wouldn't touch production, for safety and regulatory reasons etc. but for me it's fine I agree with @theo completely, it's clear to me this is where it's going, also seeing @karpathy with Claude moving to the cloud (via Slack etc), I think AI "agents" and AI coding will operate on servers / from the cloud first P.S. I have 3-2-1 backups, multiple on-site and off-site backups which you should also even if you wouldn't code with AI, safety first!

Congratulations Europe You did it You killed 1,000 people with your degrowth bs I hope you feel extremely proud now!

@denisyurchak Ohhh Cloudflare Tunnels for that!

@levelsio Yes, it is, I mean I would like to make it go live and be accessible for people outside of Tailscale

@denisyurchak Huh no you can Your laptop should be IN your Tailscale network!

@levelsio I’m trying to keep my VPS sealed from the internet with Tailscale, and that means I can’t code and go live from the same server How do you solve it?

@petergyang Make a VPS on hetzner.com, SSH in, install Claude Code! Make sure to add Tailscale and Cloudflare Tunnels and then make a Firewall in Hetzner with nothing in it to block all inbound traffic

@levelsio What's the best way to set this up? Can you still use either CC/Codex apps if you're doing this?

@Niklas_Sikorra @steipete Yes, constantly shipping prod every single thing

@levelsio @steipete Congrats. You seem to push very small changes? 4k contributions in a month seems ridiculously much?

Crazy today I learnt I got most commits on GitHub in private repos along with @steipete 🤯

@simon_ohler No way

@levelsio Cool!! This was also the basis for early esports broadcasts, so much so that the term “shoutcaster” is still synonymous with “esports commentator”

📻 Made a Nullsoft SHOUTcast server at radio.pieter.com SHOUTcast was Winamp's own streaming platform and would let you create your own self-hosted radio stations You'd then submit it to their directory to which would get you listeners Around 2011 it reached its peak with 900,000 concurrent listeners with about 45,000 active radio stations Winamp had been acquired by AOL in 1999 for $80M and was essentially fully neglected since so it was kind of a miracle it kept going for so long But the tech is still there and you can host a server!

@staskulesh Niceeee adding

@levelsio Old-school cool. Let us choose WinAmp skins from the library (can simply be stored in localStorage) skins.webamp.org

@PochardCapital What is this logic

my local (Berlin) supermarket turned on A/C today due to the heathwave so in turn they had to shut down every single fridge lol

@bennycraven I have Termius on iOS

@levelsio Most of the time I am ssh’d into my VPS (with Claude running on the VPS), but when I step away and want to keep things moving, I move over to the Claude app on my phone and connect into that session from there. Also nice because it’s easy to add screenshots .

@brucabbro Kinda but it's also based on actual fundamental which is halvening

@levelsio let's not forget that this is astrology for men 😁

I made a dynamic chart to illustrate Bitcoin's 4-year cycles It keeps updating forever adding new cycles along the way The next cycle starts on October 31, 2026 so theoretically that should be the bottom levels.io/bitcoin-4-year…

@callumduffy0311 About $200/mo

@levelsio May have missed this previously but how much are you spending on Claude Code a month?

@bennycraven I don't see the point of the Claude app or how it'd be better than directly on VPS

@levelsio Are you still phone promoting through terminus? Curious why not via the Claude app from your phone? Or is this security, keeping everything within your Tailnet?

I still have this problem and it's super annoying @TermiusHQ should fix it but they never read their mentions on here 😭

@ThomasGrayX Can you explain? Why you block it off?

@levelsio I’ve been doing the same. I completely block off the website with IP whitelisting or a password. On batchreel it presents everyone with a waitlist, but for me it’s the product.

@kevinerikjs @JohnStrongHodl Oh that's SICK

@levelsio @JohnStrongHodl pay 3.5k$ to icann, go through paperwork hell to become accredited registrar, 4k$ per year to keep accreditation, and boom you’re done and can issue and register domains for wholesale price + 0.18$ tax fee. pieter domains coming soon?!?

☁️ I made my own little Cloudflare called Pietflare, it's a DDOS and probe detector with AI and with a central IP / ASN / country block list Each server (VPS) sends suspicious probes, or DDOS attempts etc, from the access logs to the central admin and each server pulls a central blocklist every minute and blocks it in Nginx It has a central dashboard where I can see any threats and then instantly block them but preferably the AI blocks it by itself

@edibudimilic @marckohlbrugge can tell you about that

What about apps that work on local devices? Or reversed logic, via TestFlight aka server-to-iphone deployment.
