alt Hacker NewsI find just going via Deepseek's platform API directly, using their V4 flash model, and hooking into a harness like Opencode more than acceptable. Think I've spent maybe $10 over a couple of weeks.
I did explore self-hosting models but hardware right now is just too expensive.
Directly at DeepSeek? It was my understanding (but I didn't check) that some other AI operators were providing (some of?) DeepSeek's model for cheaper prices.
Still, that's interesting. What do you get for that price? Only coding, or also e.g. image generation?
