It's not totally obvious to me that you can get the economics of this to work. A Google search costs ~.04 cents to serve, whereas a frontier reasoning LLM request costs about 2 cents. The revenue from a Google search is also around 2 cents. So the margins are dangerously thin on an LLM.

Now there's lots of variables that can be tweaked on this. So it's possible to get it to work. But there's a lot less room for error.

This isn’t accurate even for API prices for a request/response.

Go on something like openrouter with gpt 5.1 and use the chat then check the billing and you’ll see an average joe query is like 0.00102 or something.

You’re quoting figures from articles for initial ChatGPT release in 2022

There is no future for Replit considering how Anthropic, OpenAI and Google are moving into dev tools. And then there‘s Cursor and the likes.

As an online IDE they would have had a chance. But when they pivoted into AI, they decided to enter a highly crowded place with very strong players.

Recently OpenAI and now Anthropic are developing mobile clients as well:

They were failing as an online IDE for several years then growth shot up after the AI pivot.

The Miami stock exchange (MIAX) has their matching engines colocated in Equinix's NY4 data center in Secaucus NJ, much like many other exchanges. I would not be surprised if TXSE does the same.

Many trading firms already have their trading engines in that data center and I would assume TXSE would want quick access to that order flow and this might be easier if they are in NY4.

Of course, they may want to have their colo facilities in TX in their own data center, that way they can rent out space and make some extra revenue, but then they'd have to build that out.

Couldn’t they just send some hardware down Texas to co-locate there (presuming specialist hardware) and add another deployment target for their software? Would it be that hard?

Google has been using its own TPU silicon for machine learning since 2015.

I think they do all deep learning for Gemini on ther own silicon.

But they also invented AI as we know it when they introduced transformer architecture and they’ve been more invested in machine learning than most companies for a very long time.

I thought they use GPU for learning and TPU for inference, I’m open to been corrected.

Don't leave them unplugged. The standard requires all modern sockets to have switches, so there is no reason to have the plugs lying around on the floor.

chrismustcode · 3 months ago

I’ve never had an experience in any house or office where there’s been enough sockets to leave everything plugged.

People really need to start thinking twice when adding a new dependency. So many supply chain attacks this year.

This week, I needed to add a progress bar with 8 stats counters to my Go project. I looked at the libraries, and they all had 3000+ lines of code. I asked LLM to write me a simple progress report tracking UI, and it was less than 150 lines. It works as expected, no dependencies needed. It's extremely simple, and everyone can understand the code. It just clears the terminal output and redraws it every second. It is also thread-safe. Took me 25 minutes to integrate it and review the code.

If you don't need a complex stats counter, a simple progress bar is like 30 lines of code as well.

This is a way to go for me now when considering another dependency. We don't have the resources to audit every package update.

I honestly find in go it’s easier and less code to just write whatever feature you’re trying to implement than use a package a lot of the time.

Compared to typescript where it’s a package + code to use said package which always was more loc than anything comparative I have done in golang.

People keep using Oracle because they have a ton of code and migration would be too costly.

Oracle is not imune to software issues. In fact, this year I lost two weekends because of a buggy upgrade on the cloud that left my production cluster in a failed state.

A lot of these have business logic literally in the database built up over years.

It’s a mammoth task for them to migrate
