Seems like open AI is rate limiting me for a minute, I didn't expect to get top of HN this quickly. Use Starmer's for now - WC2B6NH

- dom96 1y agoWhy didn't you just create the images for all 650 MPs ahead of time?
- timje1 1y agoBecause that's expensive as hell and I didn't know if anyone would visit the site..
- dom96 1y agoReally? Does it really cost that much to generate a single image like this?
- timje1 1y agoyeah to generate a photo of reasonable quality it costs like $.18, so multiply that by 650ish MPs and you have a pretty expensive lil parody site...
- aspenmayer 1y agoMake hay while the sun shines. ~$120 upfront would make this an order of magnitude more expensive than a vanity domain name already, but if you had precomputed and cached them you’d be capitalizing on the viral momentum.
- epanchin 1y agoIdeally you would save them as they were generated, and deliver the saved version the second time?
- timje1 1y agoYup, that's what happens. If you request a postcode that leads to an MP that's not been seen before, it starts generating that MP and saves the ongoing promise, and gives that promise to everyone else to asks for that MP. Had to make sure to implement this so that I didn't end up generating duplicates.
