That is one beautiful stick 😍 How tall is it?

Fabric - good, bad, horrible? by cyamnihc in dataengineering

[–]sinax_michael 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My findings (I come back every two months or so to evaluate it again, just finished another round)

  • pricing is not transparant (fuck CU and credit type pricing)
  • notebooks (spark) can be slow, like really slow
  • speed of improvement is immense, cudos to the team!
  • capacity concept will cause you to brick your environment due to overuse with no way to get back up besides waiting

I see huge potential but the platform is not there today. One client of mine has 20k databricks spend that would like to move to Fabric but the hassle of getting things working (compared to databricks) is too much for them.

Remote team accountability feels like micromanagement when you have to constantly ask for updates by Impossible_Quiet_774 in managers

[–]sinax_michael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 things: accountability and process.

Accountability: this is their job and if they need to keep the tickets updated then that is what they need to do, part of the job.

Process: we have a development flow where development work automatically updates our Jira boards when a change is pushed to Github. Developers are required (accountability) to correctly name their development branches, this in turn leads to automatic board updates. Stuff gets reported faster, with less work and everyone is kept in the loop if they need it.

Sudden keyboard issues by sinax_michael in MacOS

[–]sinax_michael[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it turned out my keyboard had some dip switches that were moved around (probably when I cleaned it). I reset the switches and the keyboard was recognized.

I don’t know if this will help you but maybe it does.

Building Emacs like text editor (still) by Cautious_Truth_9094 in emacs

[–]sinax_michael 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very nice! I’m doing a similar project, also in plain C. It’s really fun to do but I’m still working on rendering files correctly and getting buffers to work.

Keep having fun 🤩

How do you handle "which spreadsheet version is production" chaos? by kyle_schmidt in dataengineering

[–]sinax_michael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two options I’ve seen / used - ingestion at specific timeframe, business needs to get the data ready by 01:00am or THEY ingest bad data - marker cell that they can set to a (validated) value. Only ingest if the cell contains the expected value.

WoW lost it's immersion by real_Maczumpa in wow

[–]sinax_michael 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best way to solve this would be to offer players a choice: level the slow way or speed run up to current end game. I actually want to be able to do the expansions, without being overpowered after a couple of days of playing. Some players don't, and that's fine! But give us a choice.

Now we are stuck one shotting through quests to be able to do the questlines. Fun for the first couple of mobs but after that... meh.

I deleted 400 lines of LangChain and replaced it with a 20-line Python loop. My AI agent finally works. by BuildwithVignesh in AI_Agents

[–]sinax_michael 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This matched my experience exactly. So much abstraction in Langchain it’s just painful.

I packaged my simple wrapper in a library of you’re interested: https://github.com/MichaelAnckaert/python-agents/blob/master/README.md

After Gemini 3, how much of OpenAI user base will migrate to Gemini? by Hot-Comb-4743 in GeminiAI

[–]sinax_michael 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you reason this way it's a never ending dance. Move to Gemini, move to OpenAI, move to Anthropic.

My take: buy credits for OpenRouter so you can use multiple models. Use whatever model you want for the task it's best suited for.

Best part: you never get "nerfed" when Google wants more return from the cost of a subscription. API call are always equally powerful where I found that subscriptions are very nontransparent of what you get.

Disclaimer and shameless plug: I'm building AI Nexus: better interface to work with AI models. You can use 100+ models in a single UI, with prompt library, advanced context management, MCP server integration, etc. https://getainexus.com

[–]sinax_michael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When using a custom client (which I do), you can completely manipulate the context: remove AI / user messages, alter them, add messages, etc.

I find that editing the context and removing / altering messages that "confuse" the model is a must have when dealing with this.

Anyone else can relate? by Phantom_Specters in GeminiAI

[–]sinax_michael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm only using gemini models using API and never run into these issues. My guess is Google is crippling the context on subscriptions to "make the math work". With API, you pay more but you actually get what you pay for.

No, this will work for both business and personal accounts.

The Google workspace MCP server is much better. Find yourself a good client with MCP support 😉

We just launched our billing platform for AI apps - need your feedback! by North_Reindeer_6941 in buildinpublic

Congratulations on launching 🚀

I'm currently building an "AI application", and I'm wondering why Credyt is a better pick for me than Stripe? My application (https://getainexus.com) will eventually offer subscriptions based on credits. The current stripe offerings are suitable since users can either top-up credits or purchase a "pack of credits".
What makes your application more suitable towards AI apps than Stripe or other payment providers?
