That’s only true if you still have to learn how to deploy to a server. I have the opposite problem. I need to learn how to deploy to these wonky services, and it never seems to transfer from one to the other.

While I can be sympathetic to the problem. This seems to a be a text only blog. Is the technical part here truly the big barrier to setting up a competing service?

Only if you want them to go to random inference regions. God forbid you would want inference in a single region. Then you need to be satisfied with 12 month old models that have been superseded 2 times already.

I think I’d work at Amazon purely to save the world from the abomination that is cloudformation.

I think the outer wilds did this perfectly. I seem to remember falling towards the core and gravity just disappearing.

In my experience, my personal services have gone down exactly zero times. Actually not entirely true, but every time they stopped working the servers had simply run out of disk space. The number of production incidents on our corporate mish

Like, you keep your server running for a month and you need to pay $255 pricey? I can get about 64 cores of dedicated compute for the price of a single neon compute (4c/16gb) unit. And that’s before you factor in 500gb of storage.

The moment I sign up for a PaaS the bill hurts. I can never get over the fact I can get 1000x more compute for the same price, never mind that I never use it and have to set everything up myself. I’ll just never pay to lock myself in to som

If you are scared off by the €80 setup on a server that costs €200 a month, it seems like the setup fee did its intended job no?

I’d argue that AWS is witchcraft a lot of the time. They’ll have all these they claim will work for everything, but you’ll always find one of the things you’d expect to be unavailable.

If you’ve started working in the industry more than about 15 years ago all the titles sound quaint.

Hmm, so now your options for data retention are 30 days, or 5 years. Not really a great or reasonable choice.

If it took you 10 minutes to bring that up I can’t understand why. Presumably you’ve switched to any of the other panels in Zed before?

by Aeolun 1y ago
I’m sure anyone invested enough could contribute that xD Like, I agree that that’s the thing I want most out of Zed right now, but not enough to do it myself.

No, no. If you want your VR apps running in two years on something that looks like an OS, just build an app that runs on an existing one. If you want to be the dominant player in the market in 10-15 years, build the OS and keep funding it.

Of course it can. It’s hard not to assume you are right if everyone keeps telling you so. I can’t really fault them for that. The challenge is to continue being right more often than not.

As much as I appreciate you saying the math is wrong, it doesn’t really help me adjust my expectations unless you provide correct numbers as well.

Any brand value that bitnami has will be entirely destroyed by this incomprehensible change. People will associate the ‘bitnami’ namespace with “can’t possible utilize for long term production use”

Fewer managers with fewer direct reports seems impossible. If you eliminate managers, then the remaining ones will naturally absorb the direct reports. So one of these cannot be true. Unless people don't report to anyone.

If the king managed to build their palace in the clouds? Yes. That’s a pretty awesome achievement. Not the kings’s achievement, but the achievement stands.

Claude is the opposite. It’ll go and say “I see you are talking about [fictional terrible situation] here, but I don’t feel comfortable talking about that at all, even in a fictional context. Please ask me something more wholesome.”

Of course you don’t knowingly break the rules. How can you possibly suggest it’s deliberate. I just can’t keep the full list of company rules in my mind at all times, and things slip through the cracks. Things slip through the cracks a lo

> Deliberately break written company rules sometimes I love this. It’s so true. Rules are written for indemnity, but nobody will blame you for not remembering every one of the 216 rules the company has as of this moment (217 tomorrow). A

If they start banning everyone that does it even those operators will rapidly run out of burner accounts. Can’t keep justifying $30 for every CS purchase if it’s going to be banned a day later.

I was thinking that that’s only worth it if there’s something to gain. E.g. you need a maximum mass of people to be playing CS to make fucking with the server browser worth it. When CS was relatively unpopular, say the 1.6 era, nobody would
