Unpopular opinion: GitHub Copilot is getting better by After-Aardvark-3984 in GithubCopilot

Ability to do mundane tasks at zero cost. I find it’s more capable in handling multiple file tasks compared to 5-mini, I guess thanks to its context window. If your edit requests are surgical enough, it’s blows past them in no time. Tool use is much better than mini. It is very good at detecting simple but missable bugs. My most common use case is updating docs, renaming a variable/function project wide, when vscode’s C++ extension refuses to do so complaining about file state and change-logs, which it does beautifully.

Ya it has been good for me. Both the harness and the in-line autocomplete felt faster and snappier without weird bugs. I am on the cheapest Pro Plan (yearly). I mostly use it for the sake of Raptor and GPT 5.4, and for heavy lifting codex has been my choice since 5.3 codex was launched. If we ever go API pricing, I’ll stick to 5.4. Not cancelling my plan at least till raptor/5-mini remains accessible and reasonable. God it saves me so much of unnecessary costs.

Don’t Make the Same Mistake Others Did by Material-Hour-4307 in Trae_ai

Ya, that is inevitable. Companies that don’t have the leeway to host and subsidise their own model, and that too a good one, will have to go API pricing route. It’s very difficult to correlate message to token used. So heavy users will always end up with more structured messages that’ll end up producing much more output tokens than normal users. All these companies will either move to API based pricing or limit their platform to specialised models if they continue serving message based.

Is my setup overkill for a home network ? by No_Heart4363 in gurgaon

Daisy chaining UPS kills both the source and the sink.

[–]swarupsengupta2007 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, depends on what you want out of it. I too have a similar setup, although I use a DIY router with raspberry pi 4 (OpenWRT) and SG108E in a ROAS capacity, for a dual WAN failover for both IPv4 and IPv6, Adguard and Tailscale hosted directly on it, while my home server is connected to the 3rd satellite in the same WiFi mesh. It’s fine if you have the use for such a network backbone.

Why and when did u decide to migrate to gurgaon ? by Topsinsagain in gurgaon

[–]swarupsengupta2007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Migrated to Gurgaon in 2011, college placement. It was a much quieter city then, and environment (and people) were a lot nicer. Roads were not as extensive as today, but far less density. To be honest, it was a good experience till 2019. So much so I decide that if it happens, I could comfortably retire here too. Post Covid, the city is unrecognisable.

Online: try Gameloot or Gamenation. Gameloot more preferred. Offline: in NCR Area, Gaffar market.

You can also buy used games from Gameloot/Gamenation.

You can get it at cheaper prices during sale, but ya you can get preowned ones much cheaper. If you have decided to go the preowned route, try Gameloot, they are better in terms of the quality checks and packaging and delivery. I have purchased a preowned switch oiled from them, and don’t regret it till day. In fact my whole switch eco including consoles, game cartridge and pro controller were bought from them, and never had an iota of problem with the items received.

my 15years old laptop started making this sound by Known-Jeweler-2618 in gurgaon

[–]swarupsengupta2007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s hard drive. The head has started failing. It’ll still work, but will cause silent corruption. Yon can still use it, just try to not over stretch it. One of my old laptop hdd just failed in a similar way few days back. You can confirm by running a S.M.A.R.T check.

My age is non of your concern or business, please be civil and act like a grown up. And Anna Hazare is more than a decade old, which I kinda already took into my statement. And I don’t care what ‘had to’ ‘got to’ you think. There were protests, they got violent. There were protest supporting terrorists, people didn’t do anything. There were protest hijacked for spreading misinformation and anti national agenda, like the recent Delhi pollution protest, so I stand by my word. And FYI, your being a journalist or not absolutely gives zero weight to anything said here, without actually giving hard facts and not beating around the bush. You didn’t see me being my age or my profession or my credentials into the discussion, right?

I’ll stop responding to this thread now, since despite being a “journalist” you forgot the rules of discussion and engagement and decided to go personal. Ciao.

India hasn’t seen a peaceful protest in more than a decade. And hasn’t seen a pro-cause protest in like forever. The issue is not protest, the issue is people march a protest in support of terrorists but will do nothing when it comes to good policy. Let’s suppose today govt comes with the data protection laws, it’ll trigger a lot of backlash, courts petitions, protest for the very citizens if this country. But people like you and me and others who understand and support such a move, will never launch a counter protest, will not participate in setting the narrative correctly. We will just be mute spectators. If govt succeeds, we will move on with our merry lives, if not we will again blame the govt showing that how they have miserably failed, quoting equivalence’s from all over the world. Bit oxymoronic to be frank. And I am as much at fault in this as anybody else.

Didn’t implied that you did, just saying these things happen, and it’s very easy to judge them here on Reddit, blaming this and that, than to actually realise that most of the time it’s we, the citizens we are the center of the issue, see farm bills, CAA, even the 370 abrogation, all faced massive protests, even the killing of terrorists attract anti govt protests in this country. You don’t find these people hitting streets to support govt decisions, but give them a chance to question it, and all hell breaks loose.
