    I tried Neeva, and the quality of results was just not there. Would have been happy to pay. "It is one thing to build a search engine, and an entirely different thing to convince r…

    The quality delta is so huge that it's in a different league. Replit's model seems to have focused on being cheap to train and run. StarCoder seems to be vastly better on quality.

    In other words, a shallow big == bad without taking specfic context into consideration? Imo I want competition and choice as a consumer. This basically sets things up so that conso…

    I had a similar experience with an Adwords account getting banned for "Circumventing systems", and we were completely confused as to why we got the rejection. And then the appeals …

    A past project used OR Tools. I generally liked it. It was a bit confusing at times and the documentation was a bit cryptic for using some of the advanced features, though the comm…

    The real problem is that the LatestInML subreddit is effectively an ad for the extension. Solution: don't subscribe to that Subreddit.

    How do you get a notification for what picture was viewed? I don't see any Google account setting for that. That kind of makes me doubt this report, at the very least part of it.

    A different take: read unit tests for the standard library. That shows you call sequences in context, rather than just getting lost in the code.

    TLDR of the top two point: "get accepted to YC and use cloud credits." and use dedicated servers from Cirrascale. Saved you a click.

    This is one reason I have been a big fan of Google Cloud Storage over AWS S3: at a past company AWS consistency was a huge pain, and GCS has had this for years. https://cloud.googl…

    What is the bait and switch ? The stuff you uploaded already is still free. It's for more usage. You don't like it, you have the option to take your photos somewhere else.
