New ask Hacker News story: Best AI coding plan alternative to Claude and ChatGPT

Best AI coding plan alternative to Claude and ChatGPT 4 by Jsttan | 1 comments on Hacker News. With the lowering usage limit in Claude, I am thinking of jumping ship to Chinese AI, since the benchmark is already very near compared to Sonnet or Haiku 4.5 , but for a fraction of the price. I am not worried about where is my data ending up through, I am focused on performance and usage limit. I mostly use it for coding and research. However, I am currently deciding on which to use, and would love any recommendations from anyone that are using any or many of these AI, - GLM Coding Plan (Z AI): $18/month Lite Plan - BytePlus: $10 ModelArk Coding Plan - Kimi AI: $19/month Moderato Coding Plan - MiniMax: $20 Plus Standard Plan I would like to ask, is the performance good? Is it worth the value? And how is the usage limit? Also, if anyone have any good recommendation on AI plan that is only in Chinese language, I don’t mind too, as I can understand Chinese.

Ask HN: Before Open Source took over the server, what was the discourse like? 3 by mbgerring | 0 comments on Hacker News. My understanding of the early Internet is that there was fierce competition among commercial, closed-source server and database software, and that the dominance of Linux, Apache, MySQL (and now PostgreSQL) etc were far from obvious or guaranteed. I think we’re in a similar moment with LLMs, and I’d love to read some stories, or see some examples of discourse on mailing lists, forums, or whatever on this subject from that earlier period. I think it would be helpful for grounding present-day discussions. What can you share from this era?
