> A 2012 paper on dishonesty — published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences and coauthored by Harvard researcher Francesca Gino — was also retracted over concerns data in the study were fabricated.

Mfw when the paper on dishonesty in fact dishonest


A genuinely impressive and novel use of machine learning? In this economy?

Looks really impressive, although one issue I do see is consistency. For example, it seems to highlight `null` as a value, unless it is on the left side of an `===` expression, since it probably hasn't seen that in training.

Was it ever actually tested on languages not in the training set? Would be interesting to see if a model this small can actually generalize...


How would it generalize? Let's say I use C, in which `class` is not a keyword, how would a model generalize such that it recognizes this?


I can kind of see it, but hetzner costs, what, 5€/m for your own server with 10TB traffic included? How is a 4€/m markup remotely justified for what amounts to setting up an apache server and pointing a domain at it? And cutting traffic to a twentieth?


Some (or maybe even most) people just want something that works, without dealing with the maintenance.


Why I currently use Netlify for my sites

1) Netlify forms. I get contact and update workflows for free

2) zero setup SSL, Webserver and CDN

3) It builds a preview link for Pull Requests.

All super useful, and worth paying for.

If I started paying lots for one of these services I would build a form handler, and manage a vps... but today it is cheaper not to


His has been my setup for many years. A simple cheap Hetzner VPS, setup to run Caddy printing a bunch of subdomains for all my side projects. If I wanted CDN, I’d look at bunnycdn. I haven’t researched a European DNS provider yet. For now it is Cloudflare.

I see the value for someone who doesn’t know or want to fuss with running their own VM in the cloud, but given the usage of LLM these days… But, one only needs a bit of education to take control into their hands.


If motor oil for your car costs 20€, what justifies spending 40€ to have a shop change the oil for you?


Bad analogy, a shop can't write software to cheaply automate oil changes


> but hetzner costs, what, 5€/m for your own server with 10TB traffic included?

Nope, they bumped the price to €7,13 several months ago. One could still find €5 managed web-hosting though.


You'd be surprised how many people pay hundreds of bucks per year for hosting wordpress sites that are completely static with 0 updates. Sites that can easily be hosted as static for free on codeberg (or github pages if you are a sociopath). The local peanut butter manufacturing facility with photos of their jars and no backend logic required type-of-sites.
