I have no idea. Probably depends on how big you are as a company that the credit cards would care enough to step in rather than lose a customer or how much that customer costs them.

All I know is that for the chargebacks I've gotten for my saas, I submit a mountain of evidence that the user used it heavily and then filed a chargeback after the subscription ends.

Most of the times paypal will even agree the customer scammed, and they say they will talk to the credit card company on our behalf. However we have never once won one of these chargebacks if it was done with a credit card. Then paypal proceeds to remove the money from our account and tack on a chargeback fee.

> On the other side of the transaction, the credit card company is guaranteeing payment to the merchant, who now doesn't have to care about trying to assess the financial reliability of every customer.

The customer can file a chargeback in which case they win almost every time even if they are scamming.

How hasn't reddit sued them offline yet?

How did you scrape reddit comments? Doesn't this require expensive licensing from reddit? How do you handle comments that were deleted by users?

The problem is most of the botnet zombies are in places with very little rule of law like eastern europe/russia/south america/china. It is an exercise in futility and the richest customers just opt to just spend money on more protection than shutting down the zombies.

If the zombie is in the US, hosts like Google or Amazon will take 1+ month to respond.

I never said offloading was impossible. It will result in a large slowdown.

It would look bad for cerebras if other people are hosting the 27b version and show a higher TPS than cerebras.

The wafer only has space for 44 gb of sram. If they offload ram they lose the speedup of having everything on 1 chip (the whole point of cerebras).

They are still offering full mythos to project glasswing companies and those that pay them enough.

They gave a few of the largest companies access to mythos.

Half a year later, it is still not available to everyone else.

I don't have any issues with the extra features they try to tack on. I just disable them.

I just wish they would fix the memory leaks and stuttering.

I want to be able to recommend firefox to everybody, but after 15 years of chrome and going back to firefox, it still feels jank.

Web apps like twitter youtube discord that is left open for a few hours take up >2gb ram and is jittery. I have to shift+esc and close them to make them run smoothly again. Why hasn't stuff like this been fixed yet?

Why do I need to open about:profiles just to launch a new profile?

Rumors are that if your company spends a lot, they will also remove safeguards.

I heard the only way you are going to get into the CVP program is if you have public CVEs. Doesn't seem to matter if you are in a company account or not according to people that are supposedly in the program.

I used to use firefox a long time ago but got tired of all the memory leaks and lag before I switched to chrome.

Now that mv2 is going away, I switch back to firefox, and it still has memory leak issues after all these years, it is really disappointing.
