> Also that's Series D-E, money isn't real anymore

Could you explain this? Is this commentary on voting power dilution or their class a/b share rules?

I’m guessing what they mean is that the valuation is so inflated at this point that the high dollar amount more reflects the likelihood of acquisition or IPO in the near term rather than some sort of substantive demonstration of confidence in the company and its founders.

Wow! That's the main feature for me.

No question that Ive is a legend, but I do think the fall of Humane (also ex-Apple) and the challenges at Meta, Apple, and Google in terms of VR/AR adoption (Meta Ray Ban, Apple Vision, Google Glasses and the new thing) are instructive here. The $6.5B almost feels like the largest ever aquihire.

It's my understanding that Neon had some tech to basically "wake up" the DB when a request came out -- so you could "scale down to zero," if you will. I was hoping to explore this for small personal projects: I by far prefer Postgres and would love an isolated database per project.

Is there an alternative for that? Scale-to-zero postgres, basically?

AWS Aurora Postgres Serverless v2 has that capability, though it takes multiple seconds.

Why do they feel the need to call NAT64 by some new weird “4via6” name?
ko_pivot · 4 months ago
Most people working outside the network layer are not familiar with the basics of IPv6 and how it interops with v4 systems. In fact, I would bet that many AWS admins are not familiar with dualstack VPC configurations, for example. This product name communicates clearly to those users what the value prop is.

> In fact, Cursor’s code completion isn’t much better than GitHub Copilot’s. They both use the same underlying models

Not sure that this is true. cursor agent mode is different from cursor code completion and cursor code completion is a legitimately novel model I believe.
