Honestly if you are putting models behind your own terms of use it's only fair use if I get to do the same for my content, but it's too late for me I folks in US sue them for every dollar or force them to make their models "fair-use".

I don't think scooping all of the internet and saying rules for thee but not for me is the way to go.

Not if you are using enterprise ssds... but this is some insane profit seeking. I think they should just ask for service providers to pay a share of the local revenues that would be easier to digest than this insanity.

I feel like torrenting is tax evasion now as well in France.

> but many of said startups will fail due to said choices. So by the time you have a viable company making good money, the really badly aligned companies are gone.

I wish that was the case, but that isn't how startups fail generally, sure very bad user facing breaches could cause something like that, but lots of platforms with too much jank have somehow survived all of these cyber vulnerabilities before, and will probably keep at it.

For a majority startups it's about connections and relationships rather than competence. Very few even consider building actually useful products to be a priority after the initial work of building it.

That's a problem across all of tech, I know a startup that recently had a security incident, lost over 40K USD and none of the heads have rolled they haven't completely revamped their security posture or anything like that.

I have a bridge to sell you if you think everyone on the Azure team is sub-moron. Infra security is a hard problem to solve, GCP and AWS don't quite have a perfect track record either, perhaps AWS stands out as a better option but it's hard to argue about it.

Can't their millions of agent swarms detect a malicious supply chain vector, sure it can happen to any company but not the one people are literally handing over their entire companies too.

Anthropic holds the SLA/MSA agreements not this bad actors what happens to your data is unknown if these become frequent and accepted. Given how much data is piped to Claude code via these services/extensions.

sigh.. damn I just started star trek.

Personally a doordash and instacart are like utility platforms if we are planning to use them to replace conventional means of delivery and discovery.

So I honestly think they should be under heavy govt regulations or be co-owned by everyone in the supply chain. Or firm regulated to avoid overcharging for useless stuff, everyone loses out including these companies as in needing to compete with eachother they have to offer dozens of benefits offers etc to customers, and customers get shafted when they are the most desperate because making money from the desperate is the best money making formula in the valley atm.

I have managed to find zero-days in my Canon with some effort over the last few weeks, me and a cheap model, well it was never really that hard, but I feel like it has given me more time.

I am considering reverse engineering the entire thing, I honestly don't know if that's worth it given I can connect an rpi to the system and get everything done via my own app now.

And keeping printer off of wifi networks was the best decision I ever made imho. Either way printers suck, but I like them so much as a technology, converting digital to physical is such a great thing.

I mean all big businesses (150+ peep) have to pay that much, it's the reality of the times. Getting some AI imho essential/good, one 200$ plan or spending 5000-7000$ per engineering team sure, 100$ plans or 3000$ for most semi technical staff definitely.

But if you are telling me I am wasting like a good 10-20% of my tokens on summaries I might as well stop using your service, worst part is claude doesn't let you use something else.

Using Argon? Are you certain you aren't using the Flash models?

Their Argon limits are the real issue, Flash is ok, but honestly compared to Clause's limits they are all horrid, OpenAI is the next best option if you want Astra, otherwise suck it up and send money to DeepSeek or find a provider for it for cheap.

It's 0.1 I think brain fart I typed the rest correctly though after 10 summaries you still burn the same amount of tokens

I don't want to sound rude but even at cache hit you are burning almost input * 0.10 * context amount of tokens multiple times.

If it happens 10 times you have already accepted the same cost as the entire session fresh prefill.

People on HN are either too rich or wayyy too rich

Also limits are horrendous on all plans I might as well instead use Fable that would cost me less

Nothing is an easy to use intuitive api with all the features and all the performance, it's (Dx11) the sweet spot of where I felt like it was easy to learn and easy to use without worrying about performance too much.

Sure if you are building the newer rendering pipelines DirectX 11 leaves a lot on the table but it brought a lot of nice things with it, Debug Runtime alone was worth moving to it, 99/100 times your app written in DirectX 11 even if not optimised properly will perform better than DirectX 9 in my experience.

This holds with OpenGL though the modern OpenGL 4.6 and stuff wasn't bad, but it's a lot of cruft still.

Either way there are no perfect APIs, a truly general purpose API that just gives you basics like Texture handling and io and data mapping would be enough today imho. Fully general purpose compute APIs are the solution with some additional tweaks to make graphics stuff convenient. IMHO

Though it's definitely much harder than plain and simple paint colors and textures on vertices & geometry uv approach of old.
