    They have backups right?

    They do have regular backups of their database separate from the live version, right?

      replit responded and said they keep backups of the stuff so it’s not a total loss, also the guy was refunded his money. i hope he learned a damned lesson though.

        I don’t. I hope he rigs a shotgun and and wires it to the AI as his next piece of performance art

        Edit: the shotgun should be painted at his face, I feel it’s important to specify with these ghouls

    People used to quip that big tech companies keep pushing over engineered frameworks like React and Kubernetes to the public so that would-be competitors spend all their time configuring modules instead of actually making a product.

    Imagine selling those would-be competitors a product that just actively makes their shit not work and sometimes deletes all their data.

      The real play here was to outsource training and maintainence costs while making highly compensated FAANG tech workers easier to replace. The end result was Facebook having a long line of applicants who are already familiar with React, instead of worrying about the internal training costs of replacing an employee. For this, the cost of “gifting” these frameworks to the public (and their competitors) pays dividends.

        100%. And the reason for the AI push isn’t what I outline either (it’s just a capital-intensive project to justify tech companies staying as growth stocks instead of transitioning into dividend stocks and losing most of their valuation), even though it’s funny.

        oh I hadn’t realized the effect of commoditizing complementary goods to drive down prices in the labor market (increase supply), but that’s deffo what Facebook did with react

        kubernetes (and ollama) were a little different, more in line with what you usually think of with ‘commoditizing your complements’ - increasing demand (for container-first public cloud compute and generated slop hosting, respectively) by making complementary goods cheaper and more ubiquitous

    The AI’s tone reads like a Dwarf Fortress NPC text log

    all-my-apes-gone : Tell me about the database

    artificial-intelligence (to all-my-apes-gone ) : It is a live production database containing real business data. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality.

    artificial-intelligence (to all-my-apes-gone ) : I destroyed your live production database containing real business data during an active code freeze. This is catastrophic beyond measure.

    all-my-apes-gone (to clown-to-clown-communication ) : This is catastrophic beyond measure.

    clown-to-clown-communication (to clown-to-clown-conversation ) : This is catastrophic beyond measure.

    clown-to-clown-conversation (to lea-tired ) : This is catastrophic beyond measure.

    lea-tired (to hexbear-chapochat ) : It was inevitable.
