CEO waking up to a $500M Claude API bill

[Andrei Kvapil @kvaps]

The near future. Every GitHub repository has its own Keeper - a program that answers issues, updates dependencies, writes code, and maintains the project for years with little to no human involvement.

What could possibly go wrong?

Our CEO Andrei Kvapil @kvaps was on the DevOps Paradox podcast @DevOpsParadox — episode 347.

They covered the story behind Cozystack: why ISPs, banks, and companies building digital sovereignty in Europe need a real self-hosted alternative to AWS — and how Cozystack turns bare metal into a managed services platform without the OpenStack tax.

They also got into AI — how Ænix runs as a bootstrapped company with AI as a force multiplier, why Claude Code is now part of daily operations, and whether the next generation of engineers will have the deep understanding needed to guide agents when things go wrong.

Andrei’s take on that last question: you still need to know how things work under the hood. The abstraction level moves up, but the need for expertise doesn’t disappear.

Still worried about #copyfail (CVE-2026-31431) in your clusters?

Built a small DaemonSet for #Kubernetes that loads a BPF-LSM hook and blocks AF_ALG cluster-wide. No reboot.

Works on #TalosLinux, where rmmod is architecturally unavailable.

DevOps Paradox episode with me is out 🎙️

We talked about Kubernetes, the journey behind Ænix and Cozystack, building a self-hosted AWS alternative, and how AI is already changed our work.

It’s happened! We've finally officially released the new dashboard in Cozystack v0.37 🎉

The video of my TIC talk is finally live! 🎉

In it, I dive into how we built our open-source platform, made the un-unifiable unified, and tamed the Kubernetes API Aggregation Layer to pull it all off.

By the way, if anyone's at a loose end this weekend:

We've just released a tool which can perform helm diff for @fluxcd. An official announcement with a description of our development flow, is coming soon.

Until then, have a play:

@the_sttts Thanks to the Aggregation API we have added dynamic resources kinds in our Kubernetes which are stored in other kind, and transparently converted in both ways

We are pleased to introduce the new COSI driver for SeaweedFS. It introduces new resources such as BucketClaim, Bucket, and BucketAccess for the declarative provisioning of S3 buckets and access management based on the PVC principle.
