It's Apple, theres a high chance they'll just delete it and pretend it never existed. They've got a pretty consistent reputation for this now. Dark Sky, PrimeSense, Drive.ai, Beddit, Topsy, NextVR, Fleetsmith, FingerWorks, to

Yup still got it due to paying for a year up front, its still very decent, especially the newer composer 2.5 model, it's cheap and has a ton of usage included so works well as a general day to day tool.

> They are also buying 300-400 employees with proven record of training good coding models. Are they? Their Composer 2.5 models is based on Kimi K2.5, it's not a bespoke model.

They technically have their own models as well, but they are based on other peoples models. Most of this is just customers + staff/tech rather than models being acquired. Cursors actually got so much better in the last year. Their comp

Just a shame its a tiny bit slower than chromium based browsers still (the ui, not the web page rendering), and you dont have to take my word for it, a web search for something like 'firefox sluggish compared to chrome' will back

This is Hetzner's third increase this year. Not seeing any sort of similar levels of recurring price hikes from the other big vps providers.

Getting close to losing any point of them existing. They were the cheap one. You take that away and their unique offering vanishes and makes them pretty pointless to even consider as a provider. Really hope they can sort out something for t

Composer 1.x was poor. The new one is a totally different beast and absolutely fine for day to day.

Similar here. I lucked out, a charity in the UK (Bernados) has an ebay account and they had a huge joblot of about 200 brand new DELL Optiplex 3050 Micros (i7 6700T, 16GB DDR4, 1tb SSDs). I picked up 4, at £50 each, and when they arrived th

Downside of it is like all Metabrainz projects they seem to intentionally go and make everything as utterly ugly as possible. It feels like someone there intentionally thinks up ways to make the worst UX possible.
