Some of these numbers don’t quite make sense. AppSmith has the highest percentage increase (16567%) but that’s because the minimum is 100 seats, so the actual number is $25/mo or 66% increase. How often do vendors enforce these minimums? I’ve never had a problem getting past them (at least with small to medium sized SaaS companies) when contacting sales as long as I had a few tens of users.

I really appreciate Cloudflare not putting SSO behind a paid subscription because using their Cloudflare Access product with Github SSO has been the easiest way to secure my personal services running on a VM.

Out of curiosity, why GitHub as the SSO provider? Am thinking about local SSO for my homelab and was debating passkeys vs tying to Google accounts.

I think this post is useful where the thread author proposed some solutions to the people affected: https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/11523#issuecomment-318...

The main thing that seems unaddressed is the UX if a user opens a direct link to an XML file and will now just see tag soup instead of the intended rendering.

I think this could be addressed by introducing a <?human-readable ...some url...?> processing instruction that browsers would interpret like a meta tag redirect. Then sites that are interested could put that line at the top of their XML files and redirect to an alternative representation in HTML or even to a server-side or WASM-powered XSLT processor for the file.

Sort of like an inverse of the <link rel="alternate" ...> solution that the post mentioned.

The only thing this doesn't fix is sites that are abandoned and won't update or are part if embedded devices and can't update.

Purely out of curiosity, what are some websites that actually make use of XSLT?

Hey, I just went to Kann to try it. It was very… smooth

Similar to sushi-grade salmon?

Ouch. Red states are pro-deregulation, until laissez-faire innovation offends their beliefs.

Isn't this just Mixture-of-Depths but for DiTs?

If so, what are the DiT specific changes that needed to be made?

> A Pass Type ID certificate from Apple Developer Portal

How much does this cost? I'd love to create Apple Wallet passes for things, but I'm weary of setting up a Apple Developer account and paying even more fees for just this.

Who needs it except entreprises for the 99.99% usecase?

E.g. the homelab admin who doesn't want their family to have to create and manage accounts on 12 different self-hosted services.

SSO is really important in the "few tools, many users" case, but just as important in the "many tools, few users" case. I'm self hosting dozens of tools, and without SSO I'd have to set up username, password, TOTP and WebAuthn for each and every one of them, my 2FA app would be 90% my own services.

With SSO though, it's much simpler. I can just run an OIDC server and log into all my self-hosted services once, and I can use all of them. Vaultwarden is an exception to the rule though, as you can't really bootstrap that in the individual case.

Another use case I'm currently exploring is for sharing netflix/prime/disney+ passwords with roommates, partners and friends. They just sign in with their Google/Apple/whatever account and get access to the shared streaming provider passwords.

What's your (OSS?) OIDC server of choice?

Authelia? Authentik? Keycloak? (These are the three I see a lot about.) Something else?

arjvik commented on Ask HN: How can ChatGPT serve 700M users when I can't run one GPT-4 locally? · Posted by u/superasn

ritz_labringue · 15 days ago

The short answer is "batch size". These days, LLMs are what we call "Mixture of Experts", meaning they only activate a small subset of their weights at a time. This makes them a lot more efficient to run at high batch size.

If you try to run GPT4 at home, you'll still need enough VRAM to load the entire model, which means you'll need several H100s (each one costs like $40k). But you will be under-utilizing those cards by a huge amount for personal use.

It's a bit like saying "How come Apple can make iphones for billions of people but I can't even build a single one in my garage"

Essentially, inference is well-amortized across the many users.
