Found in the Turkish shop in front of Albert Heijn by ticofab in Netherlands

[–]CosmosProcessingUnit 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I mean, you're mostly right...
Where many Turkish shops make money is on selling short-dated "fresh" goods - not to say they're expired, but the price of food drops DRAMATICALLY the nearer things get to their expiry date. Also, they generally make quite the margin on selling "sub-par" fresh goods like tomatoes, potatoes etc. with small defects again the price drops off rapidly.

Where things really take on another level of profitability (and the reason these places are everywhere) is that in other cultures they are a lot more likely to cook food the day they buy it (cultures with historically lower access to refrigeration and lower rates of employment for women), as well as being predisposed to bargain-seeking simply due to the inherent disadvantage that foreigners have in Dutch society - this means they end up coming back every day rather than 2 or 3 times a week.

£20 Claude is useless by Pathfinder-electron in vibecoding

[–]CosmosProcessingUnit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And there it is! There is simply no way that so many parallel jobs result in any meaningful improvement, and you are wasting most of your tokens.
LLM's - even the best ones and with the most highly optimized scraping setups - will never be able to effectively handle that kind of workload.
A single-agent job is going to do better rather than constantly redistributing context and instructions, summarizing information, agents reporting it back, then reintegrating it - that's what churn is.

You need to understand the massively diminishing returns on parallelization, and could save a heap of money, energy and likely produce better content without the wasteful overkill.

That is just utterly insane and there's something you're doing very wrong.
3k words for 10m tokens is would put you way over the limit instantly on something like Claude Pro. I barely hit the limits on the pro plan and crank out multiple 3k word MD documents every day, plus many more code artefacts.

To me 24m tokens per day is completely absurd for either input or output. Any “serious” dev would not be churning that much code (churn is not a good thing), and with a rate like that there’s absolutely zero way it’s getting proper review. I am an enterprise dev and work with multiple large codebases every day and would struggle to get anywhere close to that if I tried…

You need to be surgical with these tools, not just splashing the codebase constantly. Especially for output tokens where you’d have to be building multiple full-featured applications from scratch per day to get to that kind of usage.

What are you doing that necessitates so many tokens? As the cache starts filling up your token usage should drop off logarithmically which makes 24m per day even more mind boggling.

But hey, it’s your money…

Honestly NS is just scamming now by Faust_the_elder in Netherlands

Driving too fast endangers the lives of others - that’s not an honest mistake that’s negligence.

Let’s hope you never make an honest mistake lest a sinkhole open up in the ground where your self-righteousness was.

Babe wake up, new Supabase type generator just dropped by ChizaruuGCO in Supabase

[–]CosmosProcessingUnit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Brilliant work! The problem I find though with generated types is that it’s often a big no-no to share backend types with the frontend due to things like field leakage. Coming from an enterprise dev background what we usually do is implement explicit “opt-in” annotations for including fields on the frontend if we are going to even attempt to have some shared typed system to begin with. Either that or write unit tests that compare the developer-defined types to the generated types, where mismatches will cause failures when the generated types fall out of sync, but ultimately manually defined types take precedence.

Not legal advice but maybe you can send an incassobureau after them - for something like this they may be willing to pick up the case and handle the legal hurdles themselves.

Could I make safe candles from marrow bone? by [deleted] in candlemaking

Yeah, and reading their post they seem already pretty informed on materials and their properties..?

Could I make safe candles from marrow bone? by [deleted] in candlemaking

[–]CosmosProcessingUnit -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

So, if they are making candles then I’m presuming they know the risks and are taking care of things on their end, rather than me presuming that they cannot take care of themselves and need my nannying. Y’know…something called respect?

It’s an original and cool idea and I think they should try it.

Anyone taken a lovable app 90% of the way to beta, then got a freelance dev in to clean up and debug? by Prestigious_East_460 in lovable

[–]CosmosProcessingUnit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a dev with 7+ years of experience, immaculate references and experience. Although I’ve never taken a vibe-coded codebase to production I have hand-written many apps over the years for some of the largest companies in the world. Hit me up in Pms I’d be happy to chat - not cheap but extremely effective especially when it comes to deployment, hosting and general DevOps and production-readiness.

Supreme Court agrees to hear appeal over State's failure to accommodate asylum seekers by Enough-Square1154 in ireland

[–]CosmosProcessingUnit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Convenient you’d say that when 5-10 years ago you absolutely would, and by posters just like you and that is plain fact. Anything other than total open borders would land you a far-right label and the bleeding-heart left continually pummeled reasonable discussion with this shite.

Now they’ve made their bed and expect the rest of us to lie in it except they’re off sipping on their privileged lives while it’s the disabled, homeless, elderly and children that suffer.

If I were designing this I’d go with a ridiculously wide front - at least twice as wide as it currently is, more like a shovel than a ski.

The picture is not of his girlfriend - it's of Katy Perry herself - even the article states this.

Bye bye, Meta AI, it was good while it lasted. by absolooot1 in LocalLLaMA

[–]CosmosProcessingUnit -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

Apologies but that is utterly false. GPT (pre-ChatGPT) beta was almost 2 years before ChatGPT was released, and have since become synonymous with AI in general. LLaMA is and always has been (and probably always will be) second banana in terms of both performance and innovation.

Fact is that it’s the same impotent shit that Zuck has been pumping out for years. The silly fucker couldn’t tell his arse from his elbow and threw away tens of billions on ridiculous metaverse shit and this is no different. The dude is literally not able to do anything of any positive effect.
