thanks for providing the actual quote

During a burst in traffic, the system, instead of reacting on its own, required humans to adjust it.

Isn't this solvable with autoscaling? how is this not an issue with Firecracker as well?

Your comment reminded me of Commandos! apparently it has new releases so down the rabbit hole we go

I think that's geohot's point as well. They're advocating against being fully "ai pilled". Saying we should be using AI as a tool, not for being a luddite.

similar vibes as "640k ought to be enough for anybody"

I believe the point is that AI or cursor/agent is your CMS. The points about structured content and references are valid but go away as AI improves.

seems like it is mostly sad for you

I see no reason to believe the extraordinary progress we've seen recently will stop or even slow down. Personally, I've benefited so much from AI that it feels almost alien to hear people downplaying it. Given the excitement in the field and the sheer number of talented individuals actively pushing it forward, I'm quite optimistic that progress will continue, if not accelerate.

i wonder if we’ll ever get to a point where we don’t think about storage at all. or will we always fill up whatever storage that’s available.

having a hard time calculating what the pricing is for this

Didn't know tarsnap was so successful

Sebastian's videos are great fun. You should also check out his series about a geographical game he built https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLqXFF8mlEU&list=PLFt_AvWsXl...

This is the most important tip: avoid side projects with user accounts.

If you build something that people can sign into, that’s not a side-project, it’s an unpaid job. It’s a very big responsibility, avoid at all costs!

Interesting for sure. But what about those of us that hoard side products?

Interesting to see stable diffusion find more and more practical use cases.

Using Fargate for on-demand provisioning remains slow for us (> 60sec). Without Docker image caching support (1) and working within a VPC (2), it easily takes 2+ minutes.

640K ought to be enough for anybody.

I'm guessing the code snippets are skewing the estimate.

One of my favorite games growing up was Jones in the Fast Lane (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jones_in_the_Fast_Lane).

I recommend http://readder.co as a Reddit client instead :)

Newsblur is great on the Apple TV.

A-Painter is great and was probably the inspiration behind several iOS AR apps like Paint Space AR (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/paint-space-ar/id1260267722), Draw AR (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/world-brush/id1255729229) and World Brush (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/world-brush/id1277410449).
