Nobody ever offered free web hosting. They put ads on your shit or you paid for it. You became the product. You’re talking about shit that very few these days even know how to do. And no those costs weren’t negligible which is why geo cities and all those other “free” pages disappeared. Same with all the couple dozen different chat programs that sprung up. Free shit works partially at small scale but can’t handle any kind of serious activity. People can barely navigate Salesforce there’s no way they’re setting up their own hooks or poking holes in their routers or setting up external dns.
Don’t pull that age bullshit on me. Im nearly 50. I was there in the muds, in the bbs, on icq, watched Napster sutdown. Been configuring this shit since 3.1 and wordperfect in dos.

Basic hosting doesn’t support the backbones of the internet.

I did consider them. And they’re false. It’s a simple concept. Remove that which pays for everything and everything will go away. This isn’t difficult.

So what’s your public facing site address and we’ll see how we’ll it can hold against the onslaught on the net. You gonna pay to host all the YouTube videos too. Do you host instances for thousands of others to mess with. What SaaS offerings does your site present. If you’re not sure what my point is you’re not informed enough to present a legitimate argument.

I don’t want to livelihood we’ve been adapted". We were adapted to run through grass from tree group to tree group while avoiding large predators. Dying horrible and often gruesome deaths. Or slowly withering away in pain thanks to a simple infection. Society can not exist in the way that we evolved. Again. Rose colored glasses.

In a cave with pen and paper is nearly what I learned with. I learned with the run time, msdn, notepad and the cmd line. And yes you do end up in many situations where you simply don’t have or can’t use a full on ide everytime. Sounds like you’ve never really left your comfort zones and stuck your neck out in some tech you don’t understand quite yet. Or worked in areas under strict software controls.

It’s only assuming if you aren’t specific enough. And you do know their training is usually a year or two or 3 old. So they don’t know about whatever new shit your trying to work with.

No you can’t if you don’t know the libraries. Python is entirely dependent on what libraries you include. If you don’t know what you need you can’t do shit.

We all understand that. But if those users keep insisting on giving everyone their life story and current option in world politics before giving us the bread recipe we came for, they can fade away.
- Comment on We need to stop pretending AI is intelligent 3 weeks ago:
No we invented “human” language. There are dozens of other animal out there that all have their own languages, completely independant of our.
We simply refined base calls to be more and more specific. Differences evolved because people are bad at telephone and lots of people have to be special/different and use slight variations every generation.
