So where's the line? - if I use computer generated drums is that banned? Lots of tunes use computers for drums - if I use computer generated vocals is that different? Lots of vocals are heavily processed an have been for decades. Some have been computer generated.

My 2c : automatically disliking something because a computer did part of it is at best lazy, at worst wrong, but it should be up to individuals what they do and don't like. I get that they just want to have a ban-hammer to punish bots with, that's understandable.

Nice but 2008 called and want their git web UI back. I can't take anything "modern" seriously if it seems firmly archaic, my problem I get it.

This is a great idea and definitely useful, in particular this would make sense if it can take the build artifacts of recent github action builds and test them comprehensively, particularly to green-light a release. You can already pretty much do this using the standard agent tools and a set of test prompts so anything that makes it easier and repeatable is good.

The pricing sounds quite enterprisey, the risk there is that people will tend towards building their own.

Looks interesting.

I see they also contributed a fix to the OnlyFans notification robot. Clearly doing the important work that the internet needs.

Context is important for stuff like this, I've served 350M requests (with db interaction) for $49 via cloudflare before, but it all depends what you're trying to do.

Abstracted infrastructure like Kubernetes is expensive by default, so design has an impact.
