They don't have true competition, what they lose out on is market share with hyperscalers, since OpenAI would have no plans to share inference hardware with any other company right now. Plus, I don't know how does NVIDIA's investment equation pans out long terms given OpenAI will be investing in more purpose built inference stack for the future.

To be fair though, a lot of publishers also do a one time payment deal with authors as well, after achieving a certain milestone of number of books sold.

Changing the definition of drop-in definitely has me concerned and makes me not take this any seriously than other projects open-sourced by Cloudflare, particularly the ones focused on more critical parts of their systems – e.g. pingora and ecdysis.

I might be looking at it differently, but aren't decisions over a certain provider of service being made by the management. Incident reports don't ever reach there in my experience.

Azure straight up refuses to show me if there's even an incident even if I can literally not access shit.

But last few months has been quite rough for Cloudflare, and a few outages on their Workers platform that didn't quite make the headlines too. Can't wait for Code Orange to get to production.

While neither am I nor the company I work for directly impacted by this outage, I wonder how long can Cloudflare take these hits and keep apologizing for it. Truly appreciate them being transparent about it, but businesses care more about SLAs and uptime than the incident report.

I believe it is to make sure that the product remains compliant with the data guarantees that Workspace provides. You aren't paying for the latest and the greatest features, you're paying for the support and compliance guarantees your business expects.

You can also reply to incoming emails from what I know, you just cannot initiate any email directly to prevent the obvious abuse. I wonder how they plan to mitigate that apart from keeping the pricing sane.

Using Workers is now what Cloudflare recommends by default, with "Static Assets" to host all the static content for your website. Pages, as I understand, is already built on the Workers platform, so it's all just simplifying the DX for Cloudflare's platform and giving more options to choose what rendering strategy you use for your website.

Had me confused for a second too, but I think it is the former that they meant.

K8s has unneeded complexity which is really not required at even decent enough scales, if you've put in enough effort to architect a solution that makes the right calls for your business.

Python version from 3.10 have had a very annoying bug with the SSLContext (something related only to glibc) where there are memory leaks when opening new connections to new hosts and eventually causes any service (dockerized in my case) to crash due to OOM. Can still see that the issues have not been resolved in this release which basically makes it very difficult to deploy any production grade service difficult.

Going through the linked issue, it seems that the fix has already been merged and should be part of the next invidious release.

But it still is a fact that Google is trying to limit access to YouTube through alternatives like yt-dlp and invidious by constantly trying to break stuff.

People have generally resorted to referring GPT-4 Turbo as GPT-4 since it has been in preview for ~4 months and can mostly be used for production loads.

GPT-4 Turbo is priced $10/M Input Tokens and $30/M Output Tokens.
