seeking a cofounder to create a startup rn!

petiglyph is a tool i built to easily turn images and videos into custom font glyphs, static or animated, for your TUIs!

for example, if you wanted a twerking amogus in the terminal for some reason, now you can!

available on github, npm, pypi, AUR

currently pondering if i should swear to myself to never touch command prompt or powershell ever again

i think yes

[petipoua @petipoua]

trying to debug Windows cmd/powershell terminal quircks for my TUI app makes me plead God that the Microsoft engineers will just set this OS on fire and rebuild it from the ground up as a linux distro or something, this is truly horrible

WSL is the way i guess

[petipoua @petipoua]

the fact that gpt-5.5 eats so much more usage than gpt-5.3-codex makes the UX very bad on subscriptions right now

@sama @thsottiaux

just give us a specialized model for coding similar to 5.3-codex (not a mini) that is cheap to run for you and we'll be good!

[petipoua @petipoua]

@jackprice building web apps and trying to find a cofounder in Paris rn!

[petipoua @petipoua]

still desperately seeking a worthy successor of gpt-5.3-codex

i'll check Qwen3.7 Plus in opencode today i think

[petipoua @petipoua]

@PhilosophyOfPhy very nice

[petipoua @petipoua]

@rien7z 5.5 takes like 5x more usage than 5.3-codex did, so yeah it's exactly that

[petipoua @petipoua]

@sama yeah but most people need cheap & good models

please bring back 5.3-codex to Codex or ship a true replacement

[petipoua @petipoua]

@thesherlocker @LexnLin @ajambrosino bring back 5.3-codex in the meantime🙏

[petipoua @petipoua]

@uzairakrum yup, people using 5.5 medium or high will definitely feel the burn

[petipoua @petipoua]

@filipens00 @uzairakrum 5.3 codex medium vs 5.5 low should be equivalent, but in my experience, 5.5 low still burns through usage quite faster still

[petipoua @petipoua]

@draslan_eth @eduardolabor1 @btibor91 me too

[petipoua @petipoua]

@Adidotdev as cheap as 5.3-Codex

[petipoua @petipoua]

GPT-5.3-Codex is retired from Codex

i was literally using it like crazy yesterday thinking about how solid and cheap of a model it was

OpenAI has not had a bad move in months for coders, but this is one

[petipoua @petipoua]

ngl after the sunsetting of 5.3-Codex in Codex, Composer 2.5 shines a bright light through my window...

[petipoua @petipoua]

Artificial Analysis does not provide the stats for 5.3-codex other than xhigh, so we won't know for sure benchmark-wise how 5.3-codex medium compares to 5.4 mini medium

so my opinion on it is only based on vibes

[petipoua @petipoua]

@thsottiaux @OpenAI where is my 5.3-Codex inside Codex CLI????
You guys have NOT shipped a model that is both as cheap and skilled at terminal-based agentic coding since 5.3-codex! You cannot retire it like that without shipping a new model that fits the same role! Come on!

[petipoua @petipoua]

and for 5.3-codex VS 5.4 mini, i'm not fully trusting the benchmarks here because of the weak vibes I got from 5.4 mini the last time i used it in the terminal, especially when you drop the reasoning level to high or medium

5.3-codex medium feels solid
5.4 mini medium feels weak
