Cynically though... they've been peddling nothing for two decades now. Big data, the cloud, SAAS, web 3.0, metaverse, nfts, llms, there's always a new nothing born.
Selfhosting Gitlab takes a bazillion RAMs lol. I think I got it up to 12gb idling without doing anything.
They are all going into debt over datacenters. Google issued new shares... how? why? They all make so much money and still they can't cashflow this expansion.
What blood will there be to take?
Or his pivot to threads?
Yeah, that's the neat part about servers, they don't necessarily need to be snappy. Most of what it does is background work and it doesn't have anything else to do. DDR3 and DDR4 get the job done just as well, and save you a buck.
My NAS has 16gb of ddr3 ecc, it has 10tb of ZFS pools and it runs an embedded OS. No problems with that. Not going to use it to host Gitlab lol, but it gets the job done for what it has to do.
Farming equipment is a particularly annoying one, that and construction vehicles, are becoming increasingly locked down by proprietary software and impossible to maintain yourself. You can't even employ mechanics outside the dealer network in some instances and it will be more so in the future.
We'll they said they only scanned stuff that would have allowed them implicitly, now did they really respect that? Their ''stack'' is public, so people can review it. It's opensource, people can audit it at least.
The big giants can lift whatever they want from Github and we wouldn't have the means to prove it. I'm sure Microsoft is using private repos as they like. It's not a coincidence that Copilot was one of the earlier coding LLMs.
Yeah, they aren't supposed to scrape that stuff. That's kind of where I'm wondering if they limited their collections.
Yeah, its a strategy when you want someone to understand something they clearly haven't. You restate it in different words. You may have addressed it, that doesn't mean you understood my position. I don't mean that to sound bitchy btw. 😅 We just chatting. We cool. 👉 👉
You're just refusing to engage with point. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Would you find it acceptable if their claims at face value were true?
