Sounds cool for long term data storage, but they need to get the read write speeds up.

4mbps write and 30mbps read is extremely slow. Even if they achieve their roadmap 500mbps is still slow compared to modern drives.

Better not keep any data you need access to within like 90 days on it or you're toast.

What market is this even aiming for? Bitcoiners?

Is fact checker an actual job?

I am in the process of building myself a cross platform GUI for network monitoring.

Simply because I need one for non-critical stuff and things like uptime robot are enterprise geared and too expensive for me to entertain.

I wish there was an uptime robot for like 25 cents a monitor a month.

When a ocaml maintainer took the time to give you real feedback, all you responded with was:

"Thanks X Person"

You're the direct cause to open source burn out.

I hate these comparisons because it's not apples to apples.

The entire point of AWS is so you don't have to get a dedicated server.

It's infra as a service.

Same here. Gemini just rips shit out and doesn't understand the flow well between event based components either

I got this on the dominos pizza app recently. I clicked the bread sticks by mistake and clocked out, and a pop up came up and offered me the bread sticks for $1.99 as well.

So now whenever I get Dominos I click and back out of everything to get any free coupons

If the only restriction on reverse engineering is their cloud SaaS, why was everyone up in arms?

Or is this Arduino trying to save face?

Copilot has gotten a lot better lately at least on insiders. They are actually serving close to 200k context on insiders last I checked, which brings it more online with the first party apis

Afaik, there's no difference besides how aggressive or not it is.

But it's the same concept. Taking tokens in context and removing irreverent ones by summarizing, etc

Maybe he means not the best move but an equally almost strong move?

Because ya, that doesn't happen lol.

Yup, I get the same ick factor when I hear about it.

I think you have to be a certain personality type to get hooked into the chat emotional connection shit

But at the end of the day, you're essentially just hyping yourself up, alone. It's quite sad as well.

Couldn't you learn way more without the fluff?

Would you really ask an AI how's it's doing?
