So, if you subscribe to the $10/ month plan you get $10 worth of tokens to use within a month, and if you subscribe to the $49/month plan you get $49 worth of tokens to use within a month.
At this point why subscribe? Just pay directly the tokens so if you use less you pay less.
To me it doesn’t make sense to subscribe at $49 and maybe use $30 of tokens.
People were subscribing at the $49 plan because they were using $1000 in tokens worth
This cloud provider is also vibe coded?
One thing is that I don’t know for sure if it is containerized or not
They wrote:
Being stuck on CentOS 7 meant we were also stuck on MySQL 5.7
If they used some kind of containerization, the native packages available for the hosts do not affect the specific version of MySQL that they want to use
They’re the ones running a 10 years old database on a 11 years old os in a public facing server “because it just works”, not me
If it was a container, they could just tag a new version when the database went EOL 5 years ago, without being locked on what the package manager was offering
Because they used MySQL 5 on CentOS 7 from the package manager and couldn’t easily upgrade
Not a sysadmin but just an hobbyist: is it ok to have such a large install bare metal and not containerized?
For example the issue of MySQL 5 being unavailable would be a non-issue with a container
No politician would ever vote against getting unlimited and legal slush funds
Meetings and meetings about how to enshittificate more (example: premium subscription for WhatsApp is now already in A/B testing phase) and find a way to skirt laws and regulations
She did not win AND the song she sang was a modified version of “October rain”, that has obvious political lyrics
Different lyrics but same music = dog whistle
Exactly. I’m 100% sure they would never allow an Israeli flag on the stage or allowing some artist becoming a political tool
Eurovision should change their heart logo to a noose, if they love supporting that country where ministers wear a noose pin on their suits
Genius at work
$60 billion to acquire a vs code fork (free, open source) and all of their subscribers, which most of them are using more tokens than what they actually pay monthly
The business models of all this vscode forks (cursor, windsurf) is the exit strategy (operate at a heavy loss hoping for an idiot CEO acquiring them)
A company with lots of talented engineers like SpaceX and unlimited money could build an identical product in weeks at a fraction of the cost, without the heavy burden of users using opus for “free” in the subscription
Yes but they do zero tests on the build, if it compiles, it ships. For example it crashes if you try to open a file dialog and the copilot button is not working and can’t be hidden
Just a week ago I had a conversation with someone that is thinking that Russia is a still a communist country and was arguing if I was sure about the opposite
An individual storing 10tb on their “unlimited” cloud backup: $8/ month
A company storing 10tb on their S3: $60/month
An ai company storing 10tb on their faster S3: $150/month AND must use multiple petabytes (at least $30k/month)
It’s easy to see which kind of customer they like to have
They found the perfect scapegoat in prince Andrew “we didn’t know, fuck him. Now move on”
When compared to other Apple products it’s a massive deal, the 512gb MacBook air is 1249 and the 512gb Mac mini is 979
Although now apple stuff is less expensive as their memory pricing is “almost normal” (250€ for adding 256gb SSD on the Mac mini; 250€ for adding 8gb RAM)
Until a few years ago I’d dismiss photos like this as fake, but it turns out he actually has a merch line with that logo and trump as the punisher…
When the top priority of the FBI director is selling merch…
I want to point out to other Lemmy users that this example it is not generic but it’s a real life example (allbirds)
While calling it a “prayer” instead of using the right terminology
So “religious”
To me it seems more criminal that the cloud provider has a “nuclear button” feature via the API that destroys everything including the backups with a single call and no confirmation whatsoever. What if the key gets accidentally leaked and someone wants to have fun?
