You can use their CLI and registry for free. I agree that their paid offerings are crazy expensive, but it's simple to just commit your protos in your monorepo (or a proto repo), install buf, create buf.gen.yaml with a few language plugins, and you're up and running. All the pain of protoc is handled. It's been a massive improvement in usability since they came along.

> The government mandates that cars get safer every year and fatalities are down 78% from the 1960s. Whenever government regulates things to benefit people, people tend to benefit.

On some metrics. On affordability, new cars are considerably more expensive. Whether that's a worthwhile tradeoff is beside the point. The GP's point is that there's no free lunch, and your example doesn't address that.

They did not. The rep told me to return it and buy another. :/

Funny, I just bought one of these last week. Agree with the article. Mine came with storage and Debian preinstalled. If you buy one from Amazon, keep an eye on price. I bought, then the next day the price dropped $150. Ordered another one and returned the expensive order.

> I can probably bring up a hundred topics that our AIs in EU in US refuse to approach for the very same reason.

So do it.

Those sort of flaky or non-deterministic steps are written as activities, not as part of the deterministic workflow. The orchestrator will retry the non-deterministic activity until it gets a usable output (expected error, success), and record the activity output. If the workflow replays (i.e. worker crash), that recorded output of the activity will be returned instead of executing the activity again.

Try a short story collection. Ten page chunks are easy to consume and you get to tell yourself you’re reading literature. It’s a good way to get back into reading on paper if you’ve been away and want to start small.
