We serve multi million MAU on sqlite orchestrated through durable objects. It's not the most complex thing in the world but it goes further than CRUD. It costs us such a small amount of money for what it does. Our PG cluster was orders of magnitude more expensive.
This is like saying contractor (A) asked for $33,000 to undertake the work and contractor (B) asked for $7,000
Are we measuring and caring about the right thing?
The thought of moving back to Fly after CF is completely absurd to me, each to their own. May your downtime be minimal...
I couldn't even get it to help me write an email, because that email was to a pentesting company!
However when it's happy to do the task, its relatively fantastic.
If you have any ideas now's the time, this has been an unsolved problem for hundreds of years.
Our bandwidth is very high, we constantly get invited onto the call with their team, but after talking with them a few times it makes absolutely zero sense for us to have a committed spend, all the stuff I needed an account manager for in GCP/AWS just doesn't exist in CF. Support wise I imagine if it's broken for us it's also broken for 2 million other people so... yeah... Thanks CF!
and still he somehow keeps getting richer.
Just a stab in the dark, but it's likely because FB and meta are wildly successful businesses, and it's almost impossible to attribute that to one "lucky" event at the inception of the business.
If I'm being honest I'm actually kind of shocked at the engagement this comment is getting and the fact it's still visible. Like him or not, if you're capable of being objective, he is doing the opposite of failing...
A lot of what they are doing now is around AI comments and posts, I know this because in some of my subreddits I have various automod filters that align with the way AI writes, I see it all the time where my automod removes something and reddit removes it again after (some kind of race condition), as well as tons of these accounts getting site wide bans.
In case you didn't realise, a massive portion of content on reddit now is LLMs.
I'm not a massive fan of how reddit has played certain hands in the last 5 years or so, but I do hope they win the war on dead internet theory.
Ok cool, can I cherry pick now? TV actors in expansive TV series' with residuals in their contract. It can be a significant part of their income.
I disagree. Demand for pirated games is still huge, so I don’t think the lack of hacks is just down to lack of interest. Everything points to these protections getting stronger over time. Denuvo, hypervisor-based security, and the recent Xbox hacks all suggest the same thing: bypasses still happen, but they’re becoming harder, slower, and more specialised. I’m not saying future systems will be impossible to crack, but the trend seems to be that beating them is getting harder, not easier.
I'm not hurting artists
I guess residuals are a made up thing.
This is just objectively wrong, CF hosts an app for me with 1 million MAU
Please remove the scroll jacking, there is just no need.
Yes they do.
In related news, I'm open to suggestions for coding agent harnesses.
The amount of crime in the world -that requires arguably "low skill" time to resolve- that just gets filed away because of low resources is insane. How are forces going to stand up high skill task forces for these kinds of things?
Social media in it's current state is harmful. So I'm all for this.
In which harness?
There is no way this could go wrong.
Uh oh-auth
What are uuid foot guns?
The UX on this tool is atrocious, on mobile how do i get to the home or landing page?
I'm sorry, did OpenClaw improve by orders of magnitude in the last couple of months? Maybe so because it was an absolute dumpster fire when I looked at it, you could taste the "vibe" it was so poorly put together, I can't imagine anyone respectable building on top of it, better to just steal the compelling ideas (agent with a cron wrapper)
“Passive investing” is not the same as “buying anything at any price”. Index funds follow transparent rules and weights. If the company is overvalued, that overvaluation is set by the wider market, not just passive investors.
Time in market > timing the market.
I went from using the various big player postgres clusters to SQLite, we have an MAU in 7 figures, all backed by SQLite durable objects. We have to think differently about the access patterns but the benefits have been worth it.
502, HNHOD?
I don’t think this really holds up, for example helium itself is chemically inert and not toxic. The main risk from inhaling helium is probably oxygen displacement at a push.
Millions of people have been using inhalers to control asthma too, this well studied and agreed to be safe. This is just off the top of my head.
People say deepseek is about 5 months behind frontier, they claim their final training run was 7 figures. The trail blazing is likely making it cheaper to follow not more expensive.
My cursor costs sky rocketed recently too
