People are so cynical on HN. Just move to API billing if not getting enough subsidized compute is that big a deal for you?

- stavros 6mo agoIs that what you do when you prepay for a year to get a discount and the supplier just says "oh I'll just give you half of what you paid for"? You "just move to pay again for the rest"?
- solenoid0937 6mo agoSorry, were you told you'd be given a specific number of tokens when you subscribed?
- stavros 6mo agoYes? Weren't you? Did you think you were buying a token lottery, where you'd have a billion tokens one day and zero the next?
- solenoid0937 6mo agoHow many tokens exactly did they guarantee you when you signed up? I don't recall ever seeing a hard number. It was always pretty clear it was flex pricing.
- stavros 6mo agoThey guaranteed as many as they were offering when I signed up. I tried it for a month, it worked for me, I signed up for a year. Then they reduced the limits. If you think that's fine, I have access to an all-you-can eat buffet to sell you for only $2000 a year, it's a steal.
