Psychoanalysis?

This is a technology review and discussion website. It's poor design to put a link to a pricing page and not list any prices.

You're literally the only GPU provider that does that.

I was trying to give you my perspective as a consumer since I know you frequent these forums but I apologize if I have offended you in some way.

I was considering these guys the other day until I saw their pricing page: https://fly.io/pricing/

(There's not a single price on there, why even create the page?)

Been downloading literally whatever I feel like in Canada here for the past few decades with nothing more than an email forwarded to me from my ISP with some "threats" from the original copyright owners :P

While I was initially impressed with it's context window, I got so sick of fighting with Claude about what it was allowed to answer I quit my subscription after 3 months.

Their whole policing AI models stance is commendable but ultimately renders their tools useless.

It actually started arguing with me about whether it was allowed to help implement a github repository's code as it might be copywritten... it was MIT licensed open source from Google :/

We shouldn't be listening to the NIST for any sort of Cryptographic advice. [1]

> complex questions of what "rightful owner" after hundreds or thousands of years even means

I think that's besides the point.

To me this means a goodhearted effort to right past wrongs.

A tax would make it even more dystopian. Imagine the rich paying for the right to murder people on the road.

Their stock valuation and chart is looking strong over the past decade. Is Japan playing with their currency valuation that much that it's making failing companies look like rockstars on the charts?

Isn't the most surprising thing is that a curator would sell a $15,000 item for $40??? Was he addicted to meth and just really needed an easy $40 or what?

Or perhaps he really was a moron and was just breaking the stones out, selling the gold for melt value, and selling the stones for whatever worthless sum he assumed they were/just rocks?

>The field of programming is young and still developing rapidly, and it is varied enough to have room for wildly different approaches.

This was an interesting line of thought to digest. He's right, of course. Programming is probably still in it's infancy.

Studying and learning about programming however, can make you believe it's some ancient art mastered by the giants of our recent past, the perfection of which is never to be surpassed again.

Very cool. Just curious, is this legal? I would assume the legality falls on the user of the service?

Graeber died suddenly from necrotic pancreatitis on September 2, 2020, while on vacation with his wife and friends in Venice. Graeber died during the COVID-19 pandemic and instead of a funeral, his family organized an "Intergalactic Memorial Carnival" of livestreamed events that took place in October 2020. His wife, Nika, attributed the pancreatitis to COVID-19, pointing to his prior good health, strange symptoms they both had for months beforehand, and the connection scientists have found between COVID-19 and pancreatitis.
