I can't believe I bought a few shares of IRDM with a few hundred bucks in my trading account. Primarily because it was a RKLB adjacent company with decent fundamentals whos stock price wasn't scraping the sky.
I don't know how to feel about this acquisition though. Never thought IRDM would've been a bad investment.
Googles been quietly chipping away at AOSP for years. There was a point where AOSP was actually decent, google made sure that wasn't the case for long.
Because I was suicidal, had extreme mood swings and all of the muscle pain and instability.
I didn't even know about vit D, didn't research it. I just got a panel done to get an idea of what's going on with me and discovered I was severely deficient on vit D
My life changed after I got tested for vit D and started talking supplements. I was severely deficient. I am now sufficient and everything changed for me.
Claude code is good, Opus as general model is a hot hallucinating piece of garbage. I asked it to review a single page 50 rows, 2 column excel file. It hallucinated almost everything in the file. It repeated that for the next two files I asked it to review, these were tiny files, barely 20 kb.
The funny part is Opus was the one which generated the files in the first place.
This was Opus 4.7 High. So no thank you, Anthropic.
I considered going to hetzner at one point but I read a lot of stories around hetzner that didn't inspire confidence. Primarily that they're not really that much cheaper than going to other companies offering something similar.
If some people can chime in with their positive experiences I might switch.
I shudder when I read DRM after building a embedded display raspberry pi build. There was a problem with Raspberry pi kernel incorrectly detected an HDMI display was connected even though I was trying to display to DSI. The only work around I had was to write a kernel module that would disable HDMI as a possible interface.
The base fee doesn't need to be monthly, they can take $50 dollars as a one time registration verification fee. That should be enough to cover their compute costs for the year, specially when you pool in that from multiple customers. Who is spamming with 100 monthly emails? How much compute do they need to verify you aren't spamming. They can bake all of that into the pay per use price, they choose not to and I'm glad cloudflare is offering this.
The problem is how bullshit transactional emails are when you're outside of AWS. If you're not expecting to use 10,000 emails a month but would like the option to go over the free tier without committing to 10,000 more. Just let me pay per use FFS.
I agree, software (software startups) has always been the golden child of investors because of how cheap it is compared to hardware or any other physical good.
Good software is expensive regardless of the involvement of LLMs because you need someone to take responsibility. Large companies will save a buck because there may be fewer people needed to take said responsibility, but it's probably a marginal saving compared to the overall scheme of things.
