So basically forcing particular deepseek provider should make cache introduce another huge savings bump? Count me in, I'll be testing that. Thank you!

v4 flash was really, really good in practice for me. While on openrouter it's around 1/100th of what the "SOTA" models cost. But billions? A bit exaggerated.

True, I may have generalized too much. I did lived through that era. Outside of people actually working for those companies barely anyone known. For many of us (not working for US dotcoms and other big fish) this was a curiosity we learned

Still calling it an "attack" feels like a stretch. They literally had to pay for that "attack", no matter how many accounts they used. Google was killing many websites for decades with their crawlers. Most large websites

> Not really because nearly every adult has a phone with unlimited calling, and will allow you to make a call from their phone. that's not even true for adults. Why would you assume it's true for kids?

There are more angles on this, not exactly easy. The easiest way to make a kid to do something, is to forbid that very thing. If you are the one cutting it off, while your kid's whole school is very much up to date with latest brainrot

So? You can do whatever internal structure you want. Who cares. You still have to do the same job, just now with team who is less qualified to do that. But if you guys are all happy about that, you do you.

Maybe should be rephrased, but still makes sense to me. They use inferior tech for a premium price. But yeah, not really their unique problem. Just cheaper solution that is out there.

They are sonosing it. Their online-first shift is them doing the same thing that Sonos pulled. Which degraded their hardware usability so much, that it's literally much worse than a decade ago. Even basic functions like choosing which

BitChat, Briar, yeah. But BT is way less capable in range. You can communicate across two hotel rooms at best. Maybe across the same bar, or empty outdoor space within small visual range. Can be useful, but often you will be able to just sh

It's a natural direction to hop from Meshtastic to Meshcore.io as the community grows. They are implemented a bit differently. The chatty nature of Meshtastic works very well in small groups, or unknown area, when you need to talk a bu

I don't know what your first reply is to, that wasn't my comment. As for second - please don't assume who I am and what I do. I work with Teams daily in large org (>500k people). As a user. And as a user I see that I have

You choose a region. Then you pay for some compute size (vcpu and mem), and then you can create a lot of VMs using those limits. If some VM's don't consume all resources, others can consume it in burst. VMs have a built-in gateway

That's a similar scale as GDPR violations. And EU companies I worked with were always very serious about GDPR regulations, even if their internal training confirms fines were always really small compared to maximums. US doesn't ca
