Anything stored at a third party will be abused by said third party, but for some reason people think it's okay to drop their entire life's work on a platform that could their strongest competitor in their field, but get upset if I throw their life's work on lemmy.

Vibe coding is a disaster and companies need to stop forcing it on their employees

[-] harmbugler@piefed.social 4 points 5 days ago

It's a small disaster now, but it will be yuuuuge

We should have stuck with network file shares and FTP instead of outsourcing everything to Google. 'Unlimited storage' for select organizations was really good bait, but it was never sustainable.

The problem is that the Internet has become more dangerous and complicated than before. Companies and people don't choose the cloud because of the storage, they choose it because they don't have to maintain the server.

Private Cloud is nice.

Aka. My own damn hardware.

Go slower to go faster.

It's a wallpaper not a goddamned "screensaver"!

[-] Jimmycrackcrack@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 days ago

Are people calling desktop backgrounds screensavers now?

[-] electric_nan@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 days ago

Have been for awhile. Phone backgrounds too.

Moving to the cloud isn't going to solve your uptime issues, it's still hosted on a server, just now you can't physically touch it. Please bring critical stuff back in house so we can maintain it and know why its down.

There was a YouTube video I watched recently where they did performance tests on equivalent sized VMS on AWS and heitzer (I think).

The AWS VMS constantly fell short. Like we're only doing 1/3 the performance.

It would be cool to see results from other cloud providers.

A lot of the increased costs to US infrastructure projects comes from an overburdensome permitting process and politicians being unable to generate public will to cause inconveniences to the public.

The value of removing concrete deck stay-in-place forms after the deck is cured is negated by the value of keeping concrete from falling into people below.

[-] Sadbutdru@sopuli.xyz 2 points 4 days ago

What are the options other than removing the forms?

[-] HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 1 points 4 days ago

Leaving them in place

Auto-generated captions take 10 minutes to make something that a human will take 12 hours to fix.

The samesuch human could have used the samesuch 12 hours to caption by hand, the only difference is you didn't have to pay a license to an AI provider.

In modern NLEs, you don't need to use a broadcast safe filter before mastering unless it's some really bizarre circumstance, for basically any normal broadcast master, the very process of encoding the file, essentially IS the broadcast safe filter and adding one on in the NLE just mucks up the grade.

Any technology after coming down from the trees is bad and should be avoided. However, survival depends on increasing usage of tech stacks.

It was out of control 3 million years ago and is certainly disaster now. Exponentially growing worse.
