Pretty annoying that the first comment is always someone complaining about the other commenters and dismissing their opinions

Careful with preordering, they seem to ignore requests to cancel & the community is rather hostile to any form of criticism

I hope YC does the right thing here and pull funding of these ass wipes.

And we wonder why everything is so unbearably boring & bland... That comparison is quite the stretch imo, this feels more like copying homework. And if we are honest about what is being sold here: normalization of stealing other peoples

Spot on! It was for a decently sized SaaS app; 10k+ request per minute & and a LOT of spam traffic from china a.o. we needed to limit. The app ran across 10+ servers, this is also why we put it in the app using redis and not with someth

I’ve done moving window rate limiting using redis to do atomic rate calculations etc. That requires some weirdness

look, i'm sure there is something actually interesting here, but it is unreadble ai slop. And it looses all value immediately for me, i can't trust a single word of this post as it can all be hallucinated. This is the problem with

Yeah, recruiters already were complete assholes in general, now they can scale their cuntiness..

It's like 80-100X more expensive if my calculations are correct. Anyone surprised by this switch and bait tactic: i've been informed this is 'really smart marketing'. I haven't asked what they consider giving crack

Cloudflare is just a fucking protection racket. Next we'll need to pay to use services too

I'm always a bit surprised by how much hate fancy, over-engineered products get on here. If you think it is overpriced, don't buy it. Buy the better budget option and let the 'stupid rich idiots' piss away their money on

my macbook can do that too, and is much faster! It's clear you want something else, go buy that instead of shitting on other projects maybe?

nah it is just super disrespectful to make me read something you were too lazy to read.

has to be AI, right? i mean.. less is more i guess? But this is actually pretty fucked up. Just casually inverting the meaning of titles. Unacceptable tbh

by boesboes 5mo ago
Same here, but i think i understand: if you can code for shit, AI makes you feel on par with people that can actually write code. Like, for some it is easier to explain what they want then writing it out as code. For me, it is not.

That sucks too

Realize it's going to be 10-100x more expensive once you have no way back?

It's all fun and games, but I've yet to see anything of value come out of agentic coding. As in, all the code it produces is such total garbage, I'm not worries about the cognitive debt, I'm worried about the technical d

Can't speak for their usage, but I calculated my token use with Copilot, my employer paid 22$ for >2000$ in tokens. Given estimates margins, Github is paying 98-99% of the costs for us. I imagine Claude max etc is similar. So it&#x2

Splits. And tabs. But mostly splits. Nothing tmux and/or a decent window mangers wouldn't fix. But Macos.

After 2 months of using copilot pro, they've charged us 22$ in premium requests for my user, i spend roughly 1900$ in tokens, going of the on-demand pricing. This is estimated to be around 40-60% of real costs. They are undercharging b

I have mixed feelings about this concept, I agree that the way clouds work now is far from great and stronger abstractions are possible. But this article offers nothing of the sort, it just handwaves 'we solve some problem and that sav
