I find myself looking up commands/options in manpages or examples in cheat.sh, but that should no longer be the case, with how things are moving so rapdily. With wizaskdo you can generate/execute commands based on natural language instructions.

Right now this works against openrouter, but any contributions to support other providers are more than welcome.

Thank you for the recommendation! definitely that's a dimension I need to checkout :)

I hope I have the same effect on students doing internships where I work this year . I believe my René was Brian Harvey!

Hey! Thank you!

Your feedback is very appreciated, and definitely we don't want to be seen as a crypto project. While in this current iteration we have that utilization token, I understand cryptocurrencies doesn't resonate well with too many scams. We are seeking a way out of that situation to be honest.

I'm saying in the current system we need to represent the usage of storage units and compute units per second to a fixed number you can call it tokens or points that in the system it moves around I don't think we can do dollar billing per hour right? we need a fraction of that

Let me rephrase, and please excuse my English as it's not my first language: goal is I buy capacity on the system e.g 5$ allows me on the system to use X amount of compute and Y amount of storage, this value should be converted to more lower number to represent concrete number -could be milli Dollars or micro Dollar- or something (as a way to represent that usage per second as we currently bill every 1hr. I'd rather indeed to use that notion instead of introducing a cryptocurrency :)

Thank you for taking the time, very appreciated. We are actually aiming to build everything! crazy right? :) we have a working infrastructure that provides Virtual Machines and Kubernetes clusters, we are also targetting managed services as well (we are a quite small team, that's why we try to be a bit pragmatic deciding on solutions that we work on)

We are also planning to provide a cloud for systems like gitea, fossil, in a non-aggressive way to these respective projects.

Actually there's also another untold story, which is called a 3bot that's completely decentralized standalone working as your digital assistant, but we didn't get there yet :)

I fully agree that crypto world is making it harder for projects with good intentions specially those who delivered! (We are planning to be not linked with crypto at all soonish and allow more of fiat adoption)

Again, Thank you for taking the time!

Thank you! glad you're liking it. It's definitely a concern the incentives to provide a stable, secure service are certainly greater than incentives to steal your application's data. That being considered, you can choose the capacity provider you trust, or even run your own nodes to host your workloads (or plan the system with services like https://github.com/threefoldtech/0-stor_v2)

We mainly use this token as a utilization token (credit points if you want to say) just to feed the too many transactions

It varies between capacity providers so you can find people who do 80% to 99% uptime

The reliability varies, given that not all hosts are the same, but we provide statistics on the nodes and depend on the workload you should use the provider with the best SLA conditions for you

I only mentioned that because of a parent comment linking to the token price on coinmarketcap. Definitely, we don't want to be seen as a crypto project (the reputation for crypto is horrible). And would love to help/promote using fiat too

And we are as, I mentioned, in other comments building fiat-based solutions, and some of our users built platforms based on fiat.

I really like the idea, and the language itself looks very reasonable. (added to my forever opened tabs list) :D

How did they come up with that name xD
aredirect
·3 年前·discuss
It is. I encountered it around Qt4 time. I really liked Qt4 backthen, but I was also open to using/trying other things. Like Lazarus and U++.

It offers a more compact i'd say approach to develop and it's quite straightforward.

I only used it for small GUI applications, but you can see what others been building https://www.ultimatepp.org/www$uppweb$apps$en-us.html

I don't know how to edit the main text:

To open-source projects, We would love to provide you with resources for as long as your project needs e.g in terms of virtual machines, kubernetes clusters to develop/test, run you workflows. All free of charge. No strings attached.

And this also the link for legal information https://manual.grid.tf/legal/legal.html as well

I appreciate your comment, I've interests in so many things, specially RAD systems like lazarus, delphi, gambas (I was from that era) and I tinkered with Rebol many years ago, and the experience was quite "unique". Tarantool I had to work with in previous projects (it offers a lot, but very unknown)

Hello, you are 100% in control of where to host your data and the beauty of the system is that you can completely replicate it yourself. I'd say the experience is more streamlined than building on-premise openstack cloud.

You can find the terms and conditions here https://library.threefold.me/info/legal/#/

and everyone is also welcome to run the current cloud or replicate their own :)

Hi! Thanks for taking the time!

The idea is very flexible it can be converted to different kind of models

- Model 1: Global grid of resources where you choose (entrusted person, could be even yourself) to deploy your workload on their servers, and that's what a capacity provider offers with their SLAs - Model 2: You can replicate the whole infrastructure yourself (region level e.g gov) so you can build e.g for your own company (there you have full control)

So the way I see it, as administrator, I plan my deployments to be hosted on some reliable servers and I plan everything around redundancy (here's an example to host nextcloud https://forum.threefold.io/t/threefold-guide-nextcloud-redun... )

and there's a space for services that does such planning for the users :) I counted from 1, excuse that honest mistake :)

I'm glad you're liking it! It's the idea from the beginning indeed to allow that level of freedom to people. I would also love to help you to know more / test the project (not strings attached and no money to pay) :)

My bad, was confused by the previous comment

Here's a list of the current pricing https://manual.grid.tf/cloud/cloudunits_pricing.html?highlig...

Of course, there're other projects building on top of us to even drive the prices lower, and even as a token of appreciation I'd love to provide you with whatever necessary to be able to test the platform for as much as you need.
