So much this. The amount of unnecessary divs created by LLMs are an abomination. Let alone the blatant disregard for any semantic elements. Took a lot of strongly worded instructions to get rid of the bias for div-span-spaghetti, and it still slips in entirely superfluous elements.
Just curious: Did you move to self-hosted Supabase? Or migrated to the underlying OSS equivalents for each feature/service?
I find Supabase immensely helpful to minimize overhead in the beginning, but would love to better understand where it starts breaking and how hard an eventual migration would be.
In this particular case the only need was for Postgres migration, no other services needed.
The problems we've seen or heard about with Supabase are:
* Cost (in either magnitude or variability). Either from usage, or having to go onto their Enterprise-tier pricing for one reason or another
* The usual intractable cloud-oddities – dropped connections, performance speed-bumps
* Increased network latency (just the way it goes when data has to cross a network fabric. Its fast, but not as fast as your own private network)
* Scaling events tend not to be as smooth as one would hope
None of these are unique to Supabase though, they can simply all arise naturally from building infrastructure on a cloud platform.
Regarding self-hosted Supabase - we're certainly open to deploying this for our clients, we've been experimenting with it internally. Happy to chat with you or anyone who's interested. Email is adam@ company domain.
Pension funds. European pensions are run as insurances and/or financed via taxes. Thus, there is no investment capital from pensions. The U.S. is quite the opposite, and that fact alone probably explains > 60% of the gap in VC financing.
some people just use the governmental pensions (like in Germany) which aren't necessarily from a fund so they aren't funds at the beginning.
I heard France just aloud pensions funds to use for VC financing.
My opinion this is one of the big reasons for the lack of strong startup investments. The other one is the lacking financial union.
