My point was more about `limit portability to other clouds` than the pricing issue, even if it is known that Amazon used is economic power in the past to push competitors out of the market.

In my opinion, it doesn't matter. They "tolerated" a non-compliant use of their service for so long time (maybe because in the past their only goal was to increase adoption?!?) and suddenly they decided to change strategy?! N

Honestly, I don't see any value in it, I already have the chat prompt and just type inside it the question instead of googling and be redirected to “gptoverlow”. Maybe can be useful if actual humans validate/fix ChatGPT response,

The main problem is that, if you don't know enough details about the domain, *you can never be sure that the response is correct or not*. So, if you are using it as a “personal assistant” and “supervise it” is a big (very big) deal sin

The `human learning` argument comes a lot in every discussion about copilot, but it's a completely different thing, and misleading. `Human learning` involves understanding beyond the words and sentences, copilot doesn't know anyth

I partially agree with you if he would had suddenly started doing something wrong, but he was doing this for a lot of time and no one complained before. Cloudflare should give him the possibility to clarify or resolve the issue. Obviously,

Thanks, saw it. Just incredible that most of them were increasing (double-digit y/y) headcount in the last 12 years. All these post and articles should also mention what is the % of laid off people not only the absolute value, it'

Does someone know a site where I can see the total number of employers of all major tech companies in time? I'm curious to see the difference between today and pre-covid, and also look for a correlation between headcount and market cap

The thing that scary me most is that his business get shut down without any notice period (at least the author not mentioning any previous communications from Cloudflare team about the issue). This is really a shitty thing from Cloudflare,

So many comments and no one saying that a linux laptop is far more affordable? I guess the main reason is that with $1200 you can get a high end linux laptop while for the same amount of money you get a M1 Air.
