Tbh, my one server paperless deployment has a higher uptime then most services.

If your scaling need is not that high, you can get very far with a single server

In single threaded workloads, still impressive

Nah locally is fine, if you have a good 6ghz coverage, but that means a hotspot in every second room

I don’t have WiFi 6E, just 6 (5ghz). If the input latency is imperceptible for productivity work, and the resolution matches my laptop resolution without pixelation, then why the heck am I not streaming my powerhouse main pc?

Weekend project.

>Take off with the assurance your will will be done

* Whatever the ai things is your will, will be done in a way the ai things is correct...

There are not? So Lyft and bolt do not exists?

Same with Salesforce, there are a few hundred alternatives

Then you have access to better models then I do (4.6/5.3)

The code is mostly not bad, but most programmers i have worked with write far better code.

I mean, if you tell a chain of 100 humans to redraw a a picture i would expect it to go similar, just much faster

If you handed a human an image and said please give me back this image totally unmodified, I bet the human could do it.

Not if you were asking them to redraw the image as they saw it. That's what's happening in this particular case, only with an LLM.

I would argue the opposite..

What you get right now is mass replicated software, just another copy of sap/office/Spotify/whatever

That software is not made individually for you, you get a copy like millions of other people and there is nearly no market anymore for individual software.

Llms might change that, we have a bunch of internal apps now for small annoying things..

They all have there quirks, but are only accessible internally and make life a little bit easier for people working for us.

Most of them are one shot llms things, throw away if you do not need it anymore or just one shoot again

The question is whether that's a good thing or not; software adages like "Not Invented Here" aren't going to go away. For personal tools / experiments it's probably fine, just like hacking together something in your spare time, but it can become a risk if you, others, or a business start to depend on it (just like spare time hacked tools).

I'd argue that in most cases it's better to do some research and find out if a tool already exists, and if it isn't exactly how you want it... to get used to it, like one did with all other tools they used.

So that Excel spreadsheet that manages the entire sales funnel?

To be fair, i have never seen a business with a 500$ monthly cloud bill, AWS seems to start around 10k given or taken for a light production workload

You have never seen a small business then. A local shop is not spending $10k to host their website. Lots of VPS hosts have products aimed at this market so it must he significant in aggregate.

My point is small businesses tend to be owner managed and therefore more cost sensitive and the costs are still not a significant factor. AS businesses get bigger its even less significant and its other people's money.

A local business is not using AWS usually but shoppify or Odo or whatever hosting provider provides a management wp.

And at least here in Germany, they are nickel an dimming on the hosting cost.

The last comparison I did was Hetzner offers 14x the performance per dollar

Not including the faster SSD & included traffic

Is that based on their cloud or dedicated offering?

Cloud, dedicated is even cheaper
