7.9 x 4.9 x 9.3 in build volume is small. Since it is resin, does it really make a difference to make the build area bigger without upgrading the hardware, just by increasing the frame size?

That's exactly what I am doing. I have a Dell R740 with 96 cores and 512 GB of RAM, and RAID 10 with 16 SSDs. All of my machines connect to it via Tailscale.

and I thought I was doing something special with my little GMKTec 32GB machine I use for a dev server haha

There's (at least) 2 of us! Well, mine is a little minisforum unit, but the idea is all the same.

I have a similar setup! I use a Dell R820 though, with 1.5TB of RAM and NVMe ;)

DigitalOcean ruins everything they acquire. Just like they did it to CloudWays.

They also ruin things they don't acquire, such as their own control panel. It used to be simple and clean, now it's a horrible mess, so horrible it looks like they don't even sell virtual machines anymore.

I agree. They renamed the servers "flexible". Ui is trying to sell products nonstop. They are trying to squeeze the most out of people with their shitty fear tactics. They are going downhill.

Yes, agree. I migrated from DigitalOcean to Hetzner some time ago (also because they're European, and a bit cheaper), but then the AI craze started and now all their smaller virtual servers are always sold out...

I disagree. AI is supposedly a more disruptive technology than a simple e-commerce website created by a single dude.

What do you disagree with?

Maybe it is the bottom now?

I bet it is large-scale data crunching for labeling or categorization.

Probably not because this is usually not a time sensitive task.

High frequency trading? :)

Fast LLMs seem to be mostly useless, otherwise it wouldn't be so hard to come up with realistic use cases.

You think too negatively about its use. My company definitely needs it desperately.

If it did, you would be able to specify for what, you can't specify for what, so it doesn't.

I literally said it in my first comment, which is large-scale data crunching for labeling and categorization.

Why is it time sensitive?

I need to have the answers faster it is that simple, I don't want the users to wait for more than a few seconds.

PHP is dead to me. Countless WordPress and Magento hacks, countless lost customers because of these issues. I am done, and I will spread the hate with passion. I wish I had never learnt this garbage and spent more time with Python and C.

This is not a slap but a lick on the wrist.

Not a trio, but Magento beats all of these 3 combined when it comes to being an exploitable POS.

It took 8 hours for CloudWays (DigitalOcean) to apply the patch. Big companies suck at responding to major stuff like this.

They also have more to coordinate and manage. I don’t think it’s fair to frame it as them being bad at something. What they have to do is much harder, and it takes time.

When I’ve worked at small places, a security patch is bumping some versions and restating some servers.

I worked at a massive Rails shop for a decade and a big security bump meant mobilizing a team, coordinating updating dozens or hundreds of apps, all while maintaining platform stability and staying within SLAs. It’s a nightmare.

We have 4 servers with CloudWays. 2 of them are still not patched (20 hours since the patch was released). We cannot control the PHP version for our customers. Sucks to suck.
