Great way to dispense a few billion of taxpayer money in settlements as a favor while everyone's distracted by the story and laughing about how dumb RFK and Trump are.
They're not that dumb. Anything that seems particularly illogical has underlying motives. Look and you'll find more instances of this. Much more.
I'd argue we very certainly will. Companies are gobbling up GPUs like there's no tomorrow, assuming demand will remain stable and continue growing indefinitely. Meanwhile LLM fatigue has started to set in, models are getting smaller and smaller and consumer hardware is getting better and better. There's no way this won't end up with a lot of idle GPUs.
Surprisingly not as much as I'd thought when they took it over. They just never adjusted pricing to remain competitive. The experience is still some of the best you can get for RoR apps. But nobody in their right mind deploying a new application today would look at their insane 10 year old dyno pricing and be like - yup - reasonable
Does Peertube not have federation or similar? This will never take off if users have to visit dozens of different instances each specifically for one interest of theirs.
I usually try to anonymize whatever is going on. Personal conversations key details removed or slightly modified, no real person or company names at all, etc
Code I only run through the zero-retention API accounts anyway.
I still wonder why they literally don't seem to care in Europe. I've overdrawn billing accounts (by accident) two times, one 10 years ago, one a year ago. Nothing happened until I remembered about them months and months later, I went to check and both times the accounts were just sitting there closed. Checked my email and they sent like two payment reminders in the first 2 weeks and then nothing ever again.. the one 10 years ago is still sitting there.. it's not like they couldn't have sent it to debt collections, that's also a popular thing here lol.
Yup, same. My Google API costs were way too high. Sonnet and Opus 4 are much better now so they take care of most of my "easier" tasks. Gemini 2.5 Pro is still somehow better for larger scopes so I have it do all the pre-planning and larger tasks
