At bit.io, _if_ you ran the database on the free tier for the full month, it cost us around $0.83. We scaled to zero, so the most common case was that free tier DBs cost us about 1/30th of that. That database was running on its own pod

I worked on YouTube transcoding about 12 years ago. First, the scale is mostly reused - what’s doing transcoding now is doing a different compute job later. Transcoding was also done for most videos only on idle compute. Second, Google had

This would be a welcome change for folks running PG in k8s or with any external automated configuration management. Once you want to deploy Postgres databases via API to semi-trusted users you want to have configuration control outside of t

The full control plane is not open source, so if you use tenants or many of the not-in-postgres features you will need to implement the control plane. It's not too much work to do so - there's already a few open source projects st

I tried gpt4, Gemini, stable diffusion. I had sorta assumed DALLE wasn’t the hotness anymore, and had never heard of Ideogram- I’ll try both!

Given the amount of training image data with hands (and text in the image), I don’t understand the lack of specific detail. For hands it’s even stranger - the models add fingers, for example, which seems like something that the training dat

We did this at bit.io and people loved it - there a bunch of articles we wrote on what we found during our work: https://innerjoin.bit.io/ We’ve since shut down (acquired by databricks) but happy to answer what I can.

Nice! It's very apple that the default recommend way is very restricted but there are clever ways to get around that restriction if you dive deep enough. Also, Swift is so much easier to read then ObjC.

I'd do python + django + bit.io (serverless postgres; I'm the CEO but I built it because I wanted to use it), deployed in a container to k8s somewhere. These are all personal biases to what I've used and know well; for someon

Give us a try (i'm the CEO) - bit.io - we're fully serverless Postgres, and most small workloads will fall within our free tier. Happy to answer any questions.
