Your comment relies on a racist double standard. A person should not be judged by their country of origin or held personally responsible for the actions of that country.

> He speaks perfect German, though.

No, Özdemir doesn’t speak perfect German. He speaks German with a heavy Swabian accent, which sounds very rural to the average German.

I was under the impression that YC startups need to be open source. My bad!

YC startups still have to be open source though, right?

Yes but I think it's generally how non-technical people use it

3 days after I said that they are affordable they have increased the prices by 38%.

I wil never say anything nice about Hetzner ever again lol

I have literally never thought about it like this, but I think you are right. In my mind mobile phones were always separate from other devices, kinda like consoles.

Can confirm on Hetzner. I'm building a SaaS on it right now and had to request a VPS limit increase. I was so worried and carefully crafted my request message. I was bracing for a multi-day back-and-forth but they just... did it in like 10 minutes lol

> The pricing is almost absurdly good compared to AWS, and the performance is solid. If you've never spun up a Hetzner box, you're overpaying for cloud compute.

Yep!

> +1. I see all these posts about tokens, and I'm like "who's paying by the token?"

When you use the API

> China has a huge population that mostly speaks Mandarin.

It's about incentives. The Chinese had to come up with their own solutions because of their firewall.

Maybe it's time for a European firewall?

I find the premise that coding is one of the hardest problem for LLMs flawed. Isn't coding the easiest area for AI, with lots of data to train and easily verifiable?

Yes, it is very common to change your useragent for web scraping. Mainly because there are websites which will block you just based on that alone

I’m surprised TypeScript is controversial to some people. Having worked on a large vanilla JavaScript framework, the benefits were pretty clear.

> It also reduces your incentive to change, if “the internet is down” people will put down their device and do something else. Even if your web site is up they’ll assume it isn’t.

I agree. When people talk about the enshittification of the internet, Cloudflare plays a significant role.

But now you need someone to deal with the hardware.
