It'll get better eventually, but a whole lot worse in the near term. Prices need to drop to meet demand and the homelessness and brazen criminal behavior are rapidly pushing demand down even further.

I know it is, which imo is the problem. You shouldn’t have to rely on an additional third-party for your company to be able to commit, checkout, build, and deploy code. All these startups who experience a 100% dev outage when github or gitl

Yes, if you're familiar with docker compose and the compose file specification, adding docker swarm to the mix is very simple. You're basically swapping out the docker host with the swarm manager node. If you're genuinely onl

Yes, but if Hetzner made a blog post on how they were going to stop randomly shutting down customer's services, terminating accounts, and actually providing customer support that would be novel.

Your semantics are irrelevant. People who write PHP end up with faster performing applications than people who write Python.

Except PHP actually is fast while Python isn't.

Part of the reason American salaries are so high is because they work so often. Forcing employers to give up an additional 20 days per year is a surefire way to tank the GDP.

Twitter is going to end up with app-only soon. You can authenticate users with device attestation on an app and you can't on a website. That's how Twitter is going to avoid bots and scrapers.

You shut off my server because you thought it was being DDOS'd (it wasn't and the traffic wasn't even that much, it was just abnormal for that box), even though I explained it and provided evidence during the surge. As a resu

Because privacy laws have zero teeth and workarounds are technically easy (or endlessly annoying for zero new outcome, e.g. see cookie popups). If the EU would actually enforce GDPR it would be amazing. Meanwhile these companies who have es

It has a 100% success rate based on my observation. And if we're going to disagree on facts, I'm not sure the point in having any sort of further discussion.

Do you think the yield inversion was also a coordinated effort?

for sure, using a custom TLS library like uTLS helps -- need to inject that GREASE cipher selection. I have a suspicion that private residential proxies are out of budget for many outfits, or the IPs are too few and then simple rate limitin

I agree, but there are hundreds if not thousands of AI startups trying to make their own relevant LLM, and they're going to be scraping Twitter. The Onion called it many years ago [1]: "400 billion tweets and not one useful bit of

This is a really ignorant take to dismiss scrapers. LLMs operate by having petabytes of conversational training data. Scraping is how OpenAI trained GPT. It’s how all their copycats are trying to do the same. Elon can be a monumental asshat

Their revenue in September was $318k/yr, what is it today? Let’s say it’s $600k? $1M? $40M is a really high valuation for that revenue, I’d not have invested either. It’s not 2021 anymore.

How isn’t? You’re paying for a VM with access to a slice of resources. Yes fly.io offers some clever deployment and routing, but it’s still your code running on a VM.
