@redaction Huh? The Norse founded Dublin

You don’t need this database.. all of you younger guys buy into all this third-party extra crap

You can run a local psql with some auto backups, a heztner vps with a lot of ram is like $30-40/mo and cloudflare R2 for your media, pushing it from your vps with their s3 clone api.. you could host your whole thing for $100 or less and have complete control without all these crazy third-party services you dont need

I used to have a large casual game site that had 5 million uniques a day and I ran it on five clustered web servers with 3 replicated sql dbs.. everything every modern app does is complete overkill bullshit

@permexpat Been here 20 years.. sorry to hear this. Try to hang in there.

@PeteHegseth @POTUS there is no way that UAE asked for a pause/deal

@KarstResearch Yes I am parsing tax records and also county recorder distress signals from many counties. You just have it use playwright for session initiation, most counties use software powered by a simple API.

@bcherny @DavidKPiano from what i saw, opus 4.7 is like codex tbh.. 4.6 is much more a pair programmer which is sometimes needed, 4.7 u have to plan, build md file, execute it in new session over and over.. i.e., 4.7 is good for 90% but u really need to go to 4.6 for last mile stuff

@profmarkcollard @AdamZivo Maybe the oral exam could be done in front of a camera in a few private side rooms, and AI could analyze the results

[Dustin Hamilton @DustinGHamilton]

@BoringBiz_ And also - less philosophically, no company has a need for unlimited product development, and incremental improvements/maintenance engineering can be done much faster and with much fewer engineers (if any at all)

[Dustin Hamilton @DustinGHamilton]

What you’re missing is that engineering with AI is now a direct technical product management role instead of a transcription role, which is all it really was before.. or another analogy: engineers were basically Catholic priests gating access to the bible and now people can go direct to God

Traditionally in the past, you would have a technical product manager that would sit there and explain to an engineer what they wanted, wait a few days for them to finish, tediously QA it, and repeat the cycle.

Now any solid technical product manager can go direct to the source and cut out maybe 80% of the back-and-forth for 20% of the cost.

@zerohedge lol

@Knesix Accurate

[Dustin Hamilton @DustinGHamilton]

@jess Dumbest idea way underpriced will go bankrupt or pivot

[Dustin Hamilton @DustinGHamilton]

@JasonL_Capital I remember the last tech bubble everyone started running up these bs companies too.. like now out of business AVNX etc, looking for any second and third order scaler adjacent biz

[Dustin Hamilton @DustinGHamilton]

@chamath all the comments here really are pathetic cope, we've replaced so much of our legacy bullshit so far... institutions are slow/inertia-prone but they eventually catch up.. and the entrepreneurial ones and/or tech forward PE firms are going to make a fortune in the meantime

[Dustin Hamilton @DustinGHamilton]

@smaxor doesnt work anymore

[Dustin Hamilton @DustinGHamilton]

@robbiehendricks @BeardyBrandon 55+ section 8 isn’t bad NGL, just just did this to one of my properties in a generally no-go section 8 area and it’s actually working really well

[Dustin Hamilton @DustinGHamilton]

@moseskagan Bro if are even reasonably good at leasing or know someone who is there is literally no comparison

[Dustin Hamilton @DustinGHamilton]

@chrisalbon Yeah, it’s cool. Abu Dhabi has this too, and Bermuda as well

[Dustin Hamilton @DustinGHamilton]

@atelicinvest No people are just stupid IRL

[Dustin Hamilton @DustinGHamilton]

@mert Yeah they gotta get out of their comfort zone.. terminal cc and vim all u need, way better actually
