    @Larvitz redhat has a bad rep in general so they can't lead all that well - they are basically all for profit so it helps but also hurts their own efforts, in short, nobody gives a shit, they are out for themselves

    @barthalion I write my blog posts myself, but use a small local LLM (Ministral 14B from Mistral on my laptop) to enhance the style and grammar when writing in English, which is a foreign language for me. I use AI to give the text an editorial pass before publishing.

    @Larvitz Thanks, was just curious. Some sentences sound very LLM-ish but also didn’t seem slopified enough at the same time. Unfortunately, all models seem to leak that distinct writing style for even simple edits.

    Good read either way, unsure it or changes much over UBI besides faux community sticker. I guess it’s an answer to Chainguard images if to anything.

    @Larvitz Thanks for writing this up! Glad you found them useful!

    For most builds, we anticipate users using a multi-stage build using a builder image, followed by a non-builder. Since the builder images contain a shell, you shouldn't need to use the `RUN ["echo", "hello"]` syntax - the regular `RUN echo hello` would work in the build stage.

    We're working on minimising the images further too, including removing a bunch of tools used for managing certificates (which rely on Bash and are since broken) on the non-builders.

    @RobertSturla Yes, in the 2nd example in my post, I did use a builder image:

    FROM registry.access.redhat.com/hi/python:3.13-builder AS builder

    Works all fine 🙂 I tested the postgresql and the python images with real workloads and had no issues so far!

    @Larvitz this is the best explanation I’ve seen! Thank you very much! The only thing I’m not really understanding though is the difference between hummingbird os and a fedora bootc image that they already publish? Or fedora atomic in general. What is special that’s different from the other bootc images they provide? I already use Fedora core os and build it (in GitHub) and do bootc upgrade so what am I missing?
