If you're fine with sending your company data to a country that is openly hostile towards most other countries. Afaik, there are no subscriptions with inference outside the USA.

Ok, but subscriptions only work for individuals, not for companies, right?

Do you have a source on that? I thought inference was highly profitable. Are you saying AWS is subsidizing Bedrock and incurring heavy losses?

I mean it sounds wise to not go all in on publishing expensive models when they can earn money with more efficient models while still not bleeding too many customers?

It is harder to install fiber in densely populated areas than in some backcountry farm. Imagine tearing open a busy street in NYC for a few weeks to install fiber vs. digging a trench in the dirt next to the farm road. Which one do you think costs more? For which do you think you need to jump through 1001 bureaucratic hoops?

You seem to be mixing up e2e encryption with at-rest-encryption?
If you have a server in your homelab where you self-host I mich just encrypt the hard drive with LUKS.

Hyperscalers buy so many CPUs and so much RAM they can dictate prices (to a point) or at least make an agreement to buy at a much lower price but buy X amount for the next 5 years.

Yes, although to be fair we have around 1.8kWp, plus roof installation material, plus shipping.

Hi, sorry I'm late to respond. The price was something like this:
150€ Hoymiles HMS-800W-2t
300€ 4 Trina Solar 445W Full Black panels
100€ Shelly Pro 3em (not necessary but I wanted to see how much we feed in)
The rest was construction materials and small stuff. We have mounted it on our roof, 900W East, 900W West. One east and one west panel are wired in parallel and connected to one MPPT of the HMS-800W. We're producing around 1.3MWh per year.

I live in Germany, installed a micro solar system in September 2024. Since then, we've been producing 45% of our electricity consumption ourselves. This has saved us 550€, while the initial cost was around 800€. So this September, after 2 years, the system will have paid for itself.

Does that mean that you also don't switch to newer Anthropic models? Because they would change similarly, wouldn't they?

You're right, I didn't pay attention there. Still seems that there a many solutions better suited than S3. Probably a classic case of "We need an MVP fast, let's optimize later".
Re:We Saved $500k per Year by Rolling Our Own "S3"
on Monday October 27, 2025 @04:56AM (#45718702)
Exactly, my first thought was "Why in earth would anyone think that S3 was the right service to store millions of tiny ephemeral files?" and now it seems they have invented their own in-memory store instead of just using something like Redis. I also wonder what happens if their DIY thingy crashes, are the videos lost? Why not send to Kinesis or SQS in the first place?

To be honest I have never used Cursor nor do I know their pricing, but isn't revenue kind of a stupid metric if you're just a frontend for a paid API? Like wouldn't almost all of this revenue just go through them towards OpenAI or Anthropic?

It is a fungus that is harmless for humans, so I assume not that much. Of course it is always dangerous to artificially mess with an ecosystem. It has backfired more often than it has worked as intended when humans did that.
