Off topic, but how do you operate without email? Is it not essential for many government services and utilities where you are? (Here, it is technically optional for utilities but is an additional $10/month to have your electricity bill

Batch can take up to 24 hours (and often does) and may never complete if it gets cancelled so it’d be hard to build a user workflow around unless you kick off planning on Friday and come back Monday

The Chinese labs would only go dark if they believe they’ve surpassed the American labs, otherwise what benefit is there to them to refrain from sharing the models? Better to have all of their allies able to use the same models by making th

30g? That seems like a lot - isn’t the standard dose 5g? Did you build up incrementally and find that to be the best?

How does this compare to Automation Anywhere? They’ve been in the RPA market a long time but did a hard pivot to AI.

$200k is more for FedRAMP or PROTECTED+, but I think you’d be able to create a “compliance” addon for $20k quite successfully.

Beyond the other comments denouncing it as AI slop, it’s fundamentally wrong. GMV aka marketplace thru-revenue is strictly defined by accounting standards and most tax offices (including the IRS and ATO). It’s not something you just decide

Those days are long, long gone (15 years ago) for most of the US/UK/EU/Australia and parts f Asia. You require government ID to purchase which gets tied to the IMEI.

I want to like Zoo but the rendering engine is so buggy currently that it’s not really usable for more than simple shapes. The text-to-CAD feature they highlight is slow and error-prone, so much so that they explicitly use a “prebuilt” vers

It’s the symbol to the left of the URL > Show Certificate. They even make it available on iOS Safari (Page Info > Connection Security Details), but if it’s expired, you’ll know by the big red warning page.

Gartner claims 25% of the Fortune 500 are currently working to move back to on-prem for the majority of their applications. It’s not sexy so doesn’t appear in tech news as much but it’s happening

I’ve worked in a lot of enterprises on “tiny projects” but never on something that only went to 5 users. In one role I was the sole maintainer of a “small internal tool”…that had 1,000 daily users logging 5 hours/day each.
