if you replace in an arxiv.org link with ar5iv.org it will auto translate to html if possible


I feel like this may be the same case at PayPal too. Identity theft and random emails were not even intended for me was my experience.


Reeling us in with unlimited and locking it down. Classic


PM for Colab - I wrote the email.

No intention to lock it down? Whatever that would mean? We ensure notebooks are totally portable for any other Jupyter install you want to move to.

This change is about laying the groundwork for increased transparency for your paid compute consumption, vs. the current model of kind of hiding that away.


It wasn't unlimited though, there was always a quota. It just wasn't visible.


Used Google Colabs for the last 8 months, will fully divest from them with this change...


If you used it in the last 8 months and didn’t get restricted you won’t be now. Reading comprehension and stuff.


We actually don't know. The email doesn't indicate if the available compute will stay the same.


Read it again. If they would change the compute amount they would have to tell you that’s how contracts work and no google is not dumb enough to do it behind your back………


The change is meant to provide increased visibility in your paid compute consumption.


Yeah, I was looking on Google Colab Github page. There were some issues about "Hey! I got a Pro(+) account, and I'm keeping to be limited, but I don't know how I can check how much resources I still have" kind of messages.

I think this is one of the reasons Google is switching to this model.

By far, the biggest user complaint I get is "why can't I access a GPU" which this change will address.


Yep, similar to what they did with Google photos/gmail


What does this mean in this context? What's being locked down?


You are my hero!


I use BetterSnapTool and highly recommend it. Just set up some hotkeys and macros and you can do it all. I like to set up my hotkeys to be able to maximize for the whole screen, go to either vertical side, go to either horizontal side, or all 4 corners of my screen.

Saw Ian and Tim argue about this on Timcast IRL last night. Hope these license issues can be resolved


He wanted less attention, you can't be king of the hill forever

This is my hometown! I haven't grown any extra appendages yet from the radiation if you were curious. :)
