Not denying it took a lot of money, but the scales are different. I think they've raised $14b or so and all but 1b of that was in the last 10 months

Sorta yes and no. Huge capital injections became a necessity _after_ the release of ChatGPT. Pre-ChatGPT capital costs were much lower for OpenAI, the popularity of their chat bot (100 WAU apparently) created an existential crisis for capit

Imagine my surprise when, after watching Truckla all those years ago, I saw the Cyber Truck's design. Simone literally put the design on a platter for Tesla and they managed to not only screw it up, they still haven't made it four

Plaid just started a Credit Reporting Agency (what Experian et al are). First company to attempt to compete in the space seriously in a long time.

You can directly upload images, both on the web and mobile. It works really well. In fact I've used both images and voice to describe things and it works like a charm. You should already have that if you pay for plus.

Given how common defaulting on issues is, many maintainers might view this as a feature? Only slightly kidding.

Really disappointed to learn they took the Dreem 2 off the market, it looked very interesting!

Similarly, it was wild for me to learn recently that the standard deviation for how many calories our body utilizes for a given calorie intake was WAY bigger than I thought. Everyone intuitively knows that if 100 people each consume 100 cal

I saw this ( https://is-it-over.jevakallio.partykit.dev/ ) website and chuckled seeing all of the mouse pointers from around the world clicking a single toggle back and forth. I love these "dumb" apps so much. I mad

I'm a bit surprised they haven't spun GCP out of Google and into Alphabet. Even if it's just to assuage fears.

So funny that this came up today! I just had a developer reach out to me about whether we had a backend Swift SDK at my current company (stytch.com), or if we'd seen anybody else use us with Vapor. Googled around to get some more conte

It boggles the mind doesn't it? Since I think the 70's in the US it has been a DOT requirement for motorcycle lights to be always on when the engine is running. I find it remarkable that we haven't done so with cars as well.

My experience has been that they are roughly equivalent in most cases. Sometimes they're slightly cheaper, multi-stop routes they tend to be a lot cheaper. If you tip in Uber/Lyft, Waymo is always more price competitive.

Wow this looks incredible. I had the most fun I've had on a computer in a long time this last weekend using Partykit.io to build https://is-sf-back.cconeill.partykit.dev/ and this looks so much smoother. Going to have

^yup, haveibeenpwned is the best public service to check this sort of thing. I don't think they've pulled it in yet.

The company I work for (stytch.com, we provide an authentication API) tracks breached passwords and, depending upon config, will invalidate passwords that have been leaked. Will be interesting to watch our logs over the coming weeks.

I hadn't heard of tRPC until a developer I was working with raved about it and it just seemed like such an obvious good after I learned about it. We built a T3 app (tRPC, Next.js, Tailwind, TypeScript, Prisma) together (if you'd l

That's terrible! Rate limits and billing limits should definitely be included, even on personal numbers.

Huge problem we see at my current company, Stytch ( https://stytch.com/ ). Toll fraud/traffic pumping can result in huge costs, mid thousands to millions per year. One thing that surprised me a lot to learn, and is cover
