Not the only thing that matters but still important: i don't think your brand name is good. The name is so generic and hard to search, you picked marketing on a nightmare difficulty level. Besides from recognizability i think even if someone recommended your app directly by word of mouth they would not be able to find it

I feel you. I've been coding for about 20 years and the last 2 years were an absolute downer, draining all the joy of programming by offloading the actuall puzzles to an ai third party thst i just navigate and correct. I am 20 times more productive but 20 times less happy

I love the random hyperlink underlines on that page

"Policymakers around the world are advancing age assurance proposals to protect children and teens online." Noone is doing this in order to "protect children"


I find it a bit embarrassing that this kind of propaganda is in the first page without any form of disclaimer.


Are you saying that the proposals will not protect children?

Or that they may protect children, and that is being presented as the rationale behind such proposals, but that is not the real underlying reason?


Yeah and if you have 20-50 people aboard you are already considered medium/big sized company. 500 is HUGE


Reminds me of openai paying Kenyans $2/hr to flag violent and toxic stuff for them and a bunch of people ending up with ptsd


In that video over Madagascar, the lowest tier jobs on AI tagging is at 1 €/3h of tagging, beating the Kenyan price.


or the amazon store with no check-out having indians monitoring you via cameras to build your checkout bill as you out items in your shopping cart


I wonder what Sam's club is doing because their checker is using some sort of video based pre-check and sometimes they don't need to check you at all. Still, everything is scanned ahead of time by you or the cashier. Once I did forget to scan an item and they noticed.



Source? Curious to know more.


There's tons of articles all over Google about this, it's not exactly hidden knowledge hoarded by this HN poster.

I don't think we should be giving media presence to this red herring that is used to divert the attention from war, failing leadership news, and epsten files


Works here. Also, use Kagi!


sorry to hijack this but since we're talking the AWS egress exorbitant prices, could someone recommend a reliable production-tested s3 service that will not ruin me financially? i have been with hetzner and while their vps server are great, they are absolutely terrible at s3. random downtimes, incomplete uploads/downloads, capacity issues, terrible api key management, etc - but the failure rate is really high

It looks quite nice on the paper, but honestly, i have browsed the website and see fal.ai in the case studies which is a very red flag for me.

We use fal heavily in our manual production pipeline and their cdn/storage speed is really bad. Like, my colleagues that generate videos in the platform sit on the platform sometimes wait for minutes before a generated 5-10 video downloads from the servers, the speeds are very slow. Sometimes it works but half of time i hear them b!tching about fal being slow, when i checked the network requests, the content that's getting fetched from the v3b.fal.media for example goes reeeeally bad
