With Windsurf I'm able to pick any of the premium language models. I.e. Claude 3.7 Sonnet costs 1 credit / prompt, whereas the thinking model costs 1.25 credits, and o3 costs a whopping 7.5 credits.
It's simply passing on the cost of respective model's costs, I think. I can image it's hard to come up with an affordable / interesting flat rate _and_ support all those differently priced models.
My theory is this: the washing machine uses residual heat in the washed items to get them to dry. Plastic cools down too quickly to dry them completely. Mugs, plates or metal items stay hot longer.
I've been running mailcow for a long time to _receive_ mail. Sending was hit and miss. For a long time I could relay through my ISP, but that got me into delivery problems as well.
Now I've been relaying through Mail.baby/Interserver for 18 months or so and it works great. $1/mo base fee + usage. With the <100 mails me and my family send that adds up to $1.01/mo.
It's a complex discussion in the Netherlands in which the data protection agency (AP) has a very strict view (they claim it's not allowed) while for example the associated press sees it very different.
There is a key difference between recording vs publishing. There are more restrictions on publishing and an objective assessment needs to be made between the interests of the person in the footage and the general public or publisher.
I would argue that recording the road to collect speed data, not keeping the recording longer than needed and not for example recording license plates, would pass in the Netherlands. Since you're making an assessment between different interests and the is limited privacy impact. Of course assuming this is happening on a public road and not someone's property.
Publishing the recordings instead of just the average speed data would be a very different story, especially if the cars or drivers can be identified.
Meh, this feels more like marketing than open source. The "free" on premise hosted version is limited. Also, no mention of "apps", like inventory, stripe, PoS, etc. for the self hosted version.
Edit: it seems the on-premise version supports apps: There is no app included in any plan. All apps must be purchased separately from the App Store.
It's not uncommon for solder joints to get damaged due to heat stress. It happens to BGA compontents too when not properly cooled. The hair dryer may or may not have provided enough heat to fix a small crack (I didn't look up the temperature a hair dryer provides).
Did kind-of the same with my Philips TV a while back. Still going strong.
"Hair dryer" is such an imprecise term in a use case like this. One can find 600 watt units all the way through about 2300 watts. A typical general-purpose heat gun one might use to strip paint or shrink some heat-shrink plastic is usually between 1500 watts and 1800 watts.
Put a thermocouple in some hairdriers and you'll find some get well over 400 Celcius (750F!).
They just rely on the fact air has a low thermal mass, and it's easy to just keep it slightly further from your skin if necessary - the air quickly cools with distance as more room air mixes in.
There is a huge difference in whether one can actually reach that temperature, how quickly, and how much airflow it provides across the heating element and on target. A heat gun is a much more consistent tool for the uses for which it's designed.
A heat gun is also designed to put pretty consistent heat an inch or so away from the nozzle, whereas hair dryers often have what appear to be left-over jet engines for fans, for when you need to dry someone's hair from ten feet away.
