  • If they send 2 emails per subdomain per year, that could easily be 10s of millions which would make the cost per email measured in thousandths of a cent. And I could see the number of subdomains being larger by a factor of 10, maybe more.

    Another angle: someone with IT experience needs to manage the system that seems emails, and other engineers need to integrate other systems with the email reminder system. The time spent on engineering could easily add up to thousands per year, if not tens of thousands.

    I'm guessing their figure is based on both running costs and engineering costs.

  • If your server goes down you'll miss incoming emails, and IMO residential ISP and power service isn't reliable enough for your main email address. If mail can't get delivered people get the impression you gave them a fake email address, which can be more than embarrassing.

  • It's the only service I don't self-hosted, although I do backup my email on my home server. Email protocols don't tolerate downtime, if your server is temporarily unreachable you won't get messages and people will probably assume the email address/domain isn't even valid.

  • I don't know what, if any, CS background you have, but that is way off. The training dataset is used to generate the weights, or the trained model. In the context of building a trained LLM model, the input is the dataset and the output is the trained model, or weights.

    It's more appropriate to call deepseek "open-weight" rather than open-source.

  • I used the word "source" a couple times in that post.. The first time was in a general sense, as an input to generate an output. The training data is the source, the model is the "function" (using the mathematics definition here, NOT the computer science definition!), and the weights are the output. The second use was "source code."

    Weights can be changed just like a compiled binary can be changed. Closed source software can be modified without having access to the source code.

  • This doesn't answer OP's question, but since other people might be interested, MIT also has free graduate level courses. If you choose to pay for a certificate of completion for the courses then they can also count as credits towards a degree at MIT, Harvard, etc.

  • I'm happy to question my own biases, but only when the other party is willing to act in good faith. You clearly aren't. I checked, and none of your other posts in this thread cite sources that disprove what I've said.

  • Your slicer should have generic profiles for each material which should give acceptable results with most brands. Density and flow tend to by the same across brands for any given material, unless it's a "rapid/high flow" or foaming filament, in which case the manufacturer prints the recommended settings on the spool. Basically if it's not printed on the spool you can use just the defaults in your slicer.
