Why is Google in that state? What happened?
They have to give their product for free and it’s so bad that even for free it seems nobody wants them. During that time you have company like Cursor that are super popular and charge for their service. Anthropic their servers are melting under the load and they charge top dollar for it.
If this came out 2 or 3 years ago, that would have been good.
I still have apple care+ on mine. I knew they will probably never make a new one again. I use it without a case, so when I drop it break the screen or something, I just get an express replacement. There is a small fee ($100 or something) and I basically get a brand new iPhone mini. Hopefully their replacement stock last for a while.
Any one have good suggestions for music exploration on Spotify?
1 year ago Cursor was way ahead. Copilot had only one model and it was 4k input 4k output and it was forgetting about the previous reply. It was horrible.
One year later, the input context is at 128k token if you use vs code insider (64k for stable). You have multiples models, etc. they still cut corner like o1 barely answer (I guess they severely restrict the amount of output token) but sonnet 3.5 works surprisingly well.
They do have rate limit, you can check their issues tracker on GitHub, there are complaints about rate limits every day.
All in all, for $10 it’s good value. Cursor is also great for $20 and you get more models and more features.
Copilot is catching up fast, but they are not there yet. But they finally woke up.
Uptime wise I had 2 outages last December with one of my server with them (electrical issue). Prior to that I don’t even remember, maybe in 2018 or something. Thankfully I had no server in Strasbourg, I saw pictures of their containers datacenter there and decided to choose Roubaix.
OVH is great if you need a lot of bandwidth. Servers price are no longer as competitive as before.
