What you want to do: You hire a couple which creates a company which buys the property. It then setups something like a hotel keeps everything maintained, creates a garden, food storage etc. etc. etc. and keeps a more hidden area of the house compeltly private.
When he wants to visit, he has the convidence that he is under full control, but no one would start investigating the property, no one would assume he lives there etc.
And it doesn't need to be maintained just because, which will lead to missuse, fraud etc.
He could do this around the globe and put some sustainability/renewable whatever story in front of.
And there are plenty of things you did not opimize for. Like making sure certain dimensions are already known to the dom renderer so that the layout doesn't jump around.
Or progressive images so that it doesn't just popup suddenly.
EU and even USA should start doing something reasonable. Like introducing quota on how much overall can be imported/exported to protect local markets. Like lets say 40%.
Everyone gets a piece of cake.
But lets be honest, germany (my country) also never played fair. We gained quite a lot of export strength through the Euro and overall german politics.
And its not just the energy prices, it was quite clear what the energy prices going to be but no one really invested into reducing them early or fast enough at all. No one cared. BMW new factory in hungarie though does has a lot more reneablw and was able to continue production despite hungaries energy issue.
In China a person makes 500-1000 per month, in germany the same person makes a lot more.
China you have raw resources and cheap labor and cheap energy on EVERY SINGLE point of the process. From iron ore to the assembly itself.
And it doesn't matter much anyway because with the current and future grade of automatisation, a lot less money is getting directly to the people.
We need laws enforcing the rich to pay the taxes and/or invest A LOT more a lot faster and a lot broader.
We need real politics and not this garbage happening in germany or in the USA or in Russia.
All the log ingestion systems i have seen were bigger elastic search clusters.
Tracing traces a particular event.
I'm quite aware of the difference between sampling, tracing and profiling.
You don't have a metric 'person logged in' because you would need to scrape the metric at the moment a person logged in.
You have a metric called 'overall people have logged in so far' and you do math on it.
The 'person logged in' is an event you log out.
A metric is a point in time. A metric is very small but you have a lot of them.
A log is when something is happening but you need to log it out. A logline is heavy and has a lot of context. User id, message, etc.
A trace needs to start at the request level and tracing until the response. This is the slowest and heaviest operation.
How do you decide when to suddenly do the trace and send it? IF you always do the trace, you have to pay for the overhead of that tracing constantly.
Even if its not intelligence, a LLM found a bug due to one error message, fixed it, created a PR and it solved it.
If an LLM is only able to do all of this after training on it and never achieving AGI, we already at the point were it is cheaper to teach one LLM one problem than teaching humans to do so.
Btw. an advanced search engine is probably the worst comparision i have read so far.
A LLM is a latent space which is capable of a lot of things a search engine can't do. It can apply different type of patterns and flows onto data, it can combine these etc.
My 'advanced search engine' was just able to create a working PR for exactly what i wanted it to solve (fixing a bug) by analysing the bug, finding a valid solution then commiting the solution itself.
But we never scaled intelligence like this. The industrieal revolution created for the people at that time quite a huge issue / it was disruptive.
What will hapen to us though?
I started to skim a lot more text due to me having read a lot. Like in news article, i stoped reading the first paragraph because it repeats just what it was already written in the short subtext. Then there is the second paragarph which is used to have some historical view or whatever it is.
Nonetheless, just because someone payed that much money for it, doesn't has to mean antyhing.
Just because some Higher Ups in Stripe bought this, doesn't mean its that valuable.
It can easily be, that Stripe can just afford it and think that they are part of the big boys and thats just what companies cost today.
It could be that Stripe really really like the brand name and all the positive notion of it.
It could be that Stripe doesn't want to build this from scratch in a timefrime of 1 year or 2 because Stripe might be too corporate to be able to do startup stuff.
Stripe has quite a high motivation to leverage agents thoguh because they are preparing for Agents which will buy through stripe. They already provide the SKU backend and support the agent payment stuff.
Stripe and every other big company could build this without any issues.
It either is just a really stupid business decision or it is about the name. The only model proxy i know is OpenRouter despite plenty of other model proxies existing.
DOn't get me wrong, great for him to make money and being able to move fast and succeed, but you could play this game to if you want.
Like you have a threat which does all your checks for connectivity write it into memory and the api endpoint checks the last values written.
Then you can respond to different upstream issues differently: Your DB says 'permission denied' due to broken auth data? Your Pod is not ready.
Your backend understand what a db maintenance mode is and should still return "Maintenance", your pod stays ready.
It can be more nuanced.
But the problem with restarting is, as he stated in the blog: What if now EVERY pod restarts in parallel.
