#rsyslog 8.2602.0 (scheduled stable) just released many, many, many improvements, many of them in regard to #observability. For example @VictoriaMetrics support is now in it, as is rsyslog's ROSI stack with an easy-to use container setup. First release with #YAML support for rate-limiting settings. #DevOps #observability

@craigzLiszt Easy to say when it already did 😉

prediction: codex will take the lead over claude by end of year

#codex windows app after update: But interestingly, when I select it, it gives training cutoff data 2024 vs. 5.4 with 2025 - something seems still to be on the move ;-)

aha - now the fun begins :) It's already on the web, though it looks like 5.4 in the model selector (cutoff date 2024). So: really a fully new training set. #codex

There it is...

@songjunkr magic of release numbers ;-)

오늘 나오는 GPT가 5.5가 아니라 GPT-6이라면, 세상은 뒤집어질거야.

@HarshithLucky3 if so... noon PT - I would bet

What time will OpenAI announce GPT-5.5 today?

@initjean That's a pattern I always and since long notice in AI. If it is forbidden, it finds a way. My famous sample: "Oh, I cannot use rm - wait, I'll use patch to delete the file"

Codex Computer Use can't use the terminal app because of the security restrictions the Codex team added so instead it decided by itself to bypass this by opening VS Code and use the integrated terminal there

@Yaw_nyame35 nah .. it's blur-ish; depends on job. But in general the idea is not that bad.

Germany has a concept called Feierabend. Literally: "celebration evening." It means the moment work ends and personal time begins. And it is sacred. No calls after Feierabend. No emails. No requests. Work ends. Life begins. Germany protects this boundary better than any country I know. 🇩🇪

@thsottiaux @doublemover Is the image generator simply too cool? ;-) Anyhow, thx for being so fast at it!

Bro @doublemover. Believe it or not we got paged and are at it since 1am. Shuffling capacity and bringing more compute online. Should be back to normal shortly.

@jxnlco Generally available? Doors not look so. And I would really like to have access as the maintainer of core oss logging infra - rsyslog

Heard mythos got leaked. Would love give the team codex security it’s generally available for anyone with a pro plan! No research preview. No waitlist.

@eurofounder @matthewdmarsden German insurers sell travel insurance of course, at a very low price per year. For US travel it is highly recommended, this is common knowledge over here in Germany.

@matthewdmarsden I only believe in German insurers, foreign ones are usually a scam

My wife collapsed in our hotel room in New York today “Call an ambulance, I can’t breathe” she was screaming My heart dropped If she ends up in an American hospital we are financially ruined I went on the Lufthansa app to book a flight back to Frankfurt, but unfortunately pilots are on strike today “Please I’m begging you” she was lying on the floor I sighed and called 911 She is now in surgery as apparently her appendix “almost burst” I am extremely scared This is going to cost us at least $100,000 She could have received much better care, for free, in Germany I will never visit this barbaric country ever again

@songjunkr what is your training data cutoff date?

What will be your first prompt with GPT5.5?

@buzzthestar I am sure you have great features, but TBH for an open source project many are not absolutely helpful and the simple thing, included in codex, get's me 80% towards my goal. But I can clearly envision that this can be quite different for others - YMMV

@rgerhards rainer that manual effort for git history carousels sounds so frustrating ngl. i built instaposts.ai exactly to kill that - drop a prompt url or outline and it spits out editable branded ones in 40 secs flat. way less hassle. codex seem solid tho whats the verdict?

damn. Finally I found a tool that can easily create great #LinkedIn carousels - directly from git history. So far, this required specialized tool and still some manual effort, often frustrating. What the tool is? #codex app!

Full release announcement: rsyslog.com/rsyslog-8-2604… Thanks to all contributors who helped make this release happen.

A lot of work in this cycle also went into robustness: - queue recovery hardening - stronger imtcp validation - imjournal loop fix - TLS / CRL handling improvements - packaging, CI, Alpine, ARM, and portability work

#rsyslog 8.2604.0 is out. This scheduled-stable release adds YAML as an alternative configuration format, expands Azure/HTTP/telemetry integration, and brings another broad round of hardening across the stack.

@kakatohesss @sama @grok @grok how do you rate my exprience?

@kakatohesss @sama @grok I think it is actually already being rolled out. See the infographic that codex CLI generated for me roughly 3 hrs ago - best quality i have seen so far.

Really excited for this week! Next up, we've got something to show you at 12 pm PT today.

@sama just a side note: you already reset it today (at least in my time zone) - congrats!

Codex hit 4M active users, less than two weeks after hitting 3M. We will reset rate limits today!
