> The EU needs to be truly Federal to succeed economically. That might create uniform regulations with more uniform regulations and actually make Europe competitive.

EU already has uniform regulations, what are you talking about? It's also the third largest economy in the world, as uncompetitive as it is.

You've said a bunch of things that don't really equate to "China already won".

So in the meantime you have no real opinion about anything?

And are these multiple sources 50% biased towards one side and 50% biased towards the other side? If so, how can you tell? And are you doing an average of what "the truth" is at the end?

I don't think he's very happy that his three day "special operation" is approaching five years.

How is Europe attacking Russia? I haven't seen any of our soldiers or jets flying over Russia; We would have flattened St. Petersburg and Moscow years ago if we wanted to. In fact, before Putin's conquering ambitions we were doing a great amount of trade with Russia in a very peaceful way.

Where are you getting the "correct" narrative from?

From Blizzard's perspective, this "we" isn't worth the trouble in terms of sales figures. The audience for RTS has fragmented quite a bit into other niches and Blizzard wants to do huge releases with great ROI for their IP, not pay fan service to us.

As long as the ones offering the benchmark aren't trying to sell you something and have no affiliation with one of the companies on the page I'll take it as opposed to having the benchmark rendered useless in 3 months when the next models drop.

I did some quick ChatGPT math for the same performance/storage as the benchmark:

Neki 1 primary + 2 replicas: ~$5.0M/month (just the AWS bill)

Google Spanner w/ 3 replicas built in: ~$3.85M/month

Just use autocompact?

So your experience is that Astra doesn't over engineer? For more than twice the price of Sol I think most people will take the over engineering.

Not Astra but Sol hasn't been nerfed: https://marginlab.ai/trackers/codex/

I've disabled the checkbox many months ago and it's still disabled today. EU citizen, not sure if that's relevant.

$0.003 off-peak, not 0.003 cents.

This is a bit of an urban myth. There are trackers which keep historical performance and Sol hasn't been nerfed: https://marginlab.ai/trackers/codex/

While typical investors in their last round are subject to a five-year lock-up and will not have voting rights, China's National Artificial Intelligence Industry Investment Fund also put money into it, retaining both voting rights and freedom from the lock-up. Nothing really new if you're aware of how involved the CCP is with companies of strategic importance in China.
