Today I had to disable dual band WiFi on my windows gaming machine because PoE2 has this bug when a group of mobs surround you, network latency suddenly spikes, but only if the network card works on dual band... Sigh.
I assume many issues like that will still exist on Steam Machine, as it's kind of unrelated to what's running the buggy software.
Tourism is relatively big there but only relatively to the population numbers. I'd argue gambling contributes more to the GDP, while tourism only keeps the light on on the economy. Tourism allows the citizens to make money but it's a small country so it doesn't scale. Gambling scales globally.
Malta makes money with igaming and money laundering. There's literally no other businesses there, other than basic necessities, and even these barely work. It's only focused on entertainment.
They import food and water. Malta is very hot during the summer. There's AC unit everywhere and it's a default cooling unit as well, as there's no "European winter" there. Everyone collects rain water and stores it on the roof.
They are one tsunami away from being decimated.
There's one company renting servers and it's full of online casinos, just so the companies meet the regulatory requirement.
Malta is the worst place on earth to have a data center I can think of.
Thank you. I think their biggest threat is rapidly rising interest rates but as you said, they are profitable currently, so I wouldn't say they will go under anytime soon.
I don't have a horse in this race, but I'm curious. Could you please shed some light on why they are on their way out? I'm from Poland and they seem to keep hiring here. Afaik most of their engineering department is in Poland. At the same time, I don't understand the product as credit cards are not popular here and Affirm as a product isn't available in Poland anyway.
Serious question, do we actually know what we're paying for? All I know is it's access to models via cli, aka Claude Code. We don't know what models they use, how system prompt changes or what are the actual rate limits (Yet Anthropic will become 1 trillion dollars company in a moment).
I can't believe that's where we're at, as software devs. I miss predictable outputs, state machines. All those LLM (prompt) based rules make no sense to me. Same with AI WAL. All of it, at some point, will fail.
I only add the ones where its proved its AI, fe. if it has SynthID or some users found obvious AI mistakes. I have adding proof on the roadmap, but it's a bit tidious and there's no point in making it without a traffic.
The project got some traction, over 5k requests since I posted this. Probably the DB state needs to be optimized a bit. Thank you for reporting! I really appreciate it
Edit: I don't see slow traces in Sentry. No idea what caused this. Also, voting goes through redis and the dB load is low. Weird. I probably have to add gunicorn workers.
Edit2: Bumped gunicorn workers from 2 to 4. Should be fine now, under the current load. Again, thank you for reporting!
Yep, my thoughts exactly. But the consumer rarely thinks critically when looking at ads, not to mention regular social media posts and the Big Corp has no money in proving what assets are AI generated.
I'm trying to gamify the training to make the experience more appealing.
I store a "proof URL" on the backend, but I don't know if it makes sense to serve it to the end user. Also, a Reddit discussion is not necessarily a proof one wants. A fingerprint would be better, but not all images are generated with Google. That's another problem to be solved.
Thank you for the kind words. I don't expect it to spread like fire, but I'd appreciate if you could share it with your folks. I don't intend to monetize it, my goal is to have some small daily traffic.
It's SFW and localized to the most popular languages.
Since subreddits related to identifying AI images/videos got very popular, my wife started to send me cute AI generated videos, older family members can't distinguish AI videos at all, I've decided to code a weekend side project to train their Spidey sense for AI content.
I live in EU and bought from the US SinuPulse Elite, so I spent a little fortune on it. It was advertised as the best in class. It's definitely safe as the pressure is just enough, but it did not help at all for my problem. Most of the EU irrigation systems turn it up to 11 when it comes to pressure. I don't think that's safe.
I always had problems with sinuses. I've had a few surgeries and while it's better, it's not good either. I literally had a drill up my nose, in my forehead. They still hurt and pop on their own, many times a day.
One day my kid brought a nasty flu from the kindergarten. My otolaryngologist recommended the strongest irrigation stream I can find to clean my sinuses.
Not only did it not help, but it also pushed some goo to the end of my sinuses, which resulted in pulsatile tinnitus.
After about 6 months my kid got sick again, so we all got sick, and I got rid of this tinnitus where I was hearing my heartbeat, by casually blowing my nose. The trick was having a stiff blockage, I guess, so the pressure builds up.
It sounds stupid and probably won't help you, but I wanted to share my story. I had no support from the people close to me and the heartbeat was driving me insane.
I'm sorry you have to go through this. Even though it's not a life-treating condition, it might be a life changing condition (QoL).
Author from the other thread here. I'm surprised to see so many similarities, but in good faith I'll assume that it's just a coincidence because many devs start to notice the upcoming problems.
Hi HN, I've been using Claude Code heavily for the last year. Recently I've noticed a shift in sentiment among peers, here on HN, and over on /r/ExperiencedDevs. I wrote down some thoughts on the hidden costs of using AI too much that are not obvious, yet there's no concrete data yet. I tried to pull together data from a few different places to articulate something I think a lot of us are experiencing right now. I'd love to hear your thoughts
