[D] Deconstructing the GPT-3 economy
As we all know, OpenAI plans to commercialize GPT-3 come October. But will the massive language model actually become a profitable language model?
I had a deep dive into the costs of developing, running, and maintaining GPT-3. There's a lot we don't know about the process and the possible deals between OpenAI and Microsoft that might have cut down the costs.
Here's my take, based on what we do know. I would be glad to have your opinion on it:
[https://bdtechtalks.com/2020/09/21/gpt-3-economy-business-model/](https://bdtechtalks.com/2020/09/21/gpt-3-economy-business-model/)
Key points:
* The costs of developing GPT-3 are in the eight-figures ($10M+)
* The costs of running GPT-3 are in the five-figures ($10K+/month)
* There are costs for staffing, support, legal, ethics, privacy, security, etc
* Model decay will probably require retraining or fine-tuning every once in a while ($1M+/year?)
If it works, it could be huge, a new application development platform that could be as huge as the cloud maybe. If it doesn't, it will be a great woe for the OpenAI team, who are under intense pressure to turn in profits to secure the next round of funding.

Weird Requests from Foreign IPs; Should I be worried?
Hello! Thanks for reading and any help is appreciated!
Background:
I created my first web API, and I feel so empowered! My router has a DNS service, and I am able to obtain a free sub domain via the brand company of the router, so I spun up the Flask development server via Python and port forwarded outside requests to my PC via the router.
I have only shared the URL with family and friends, but I noticed foreign IPs sending odd requests after reviewing the the first day’s log. Some attempt Linux shell commands and one even attempted to post a .cgi file, but they all received 404 responses or HTTPStatus.BAD_REQUEST, so I assume whatever they were trying had failed.
Questions:
- How worried should I be about these odd requests?
- If my server is returning 404 to these requests, am I then protected from these hacks?
- Related to the above question, does the Flask werkzeug or a WSGI server provide the benefit of trapping bad requests? It seems like if my site was just a index.html file, some of these Linux shell commands would get executed on my server.
- Is there a resource of best practices I can read to

How does secret_key help?
This isn't the flask subreddit but I thought I could get some help here. In flask, you are forced to have a secret\_key to prevent cookie manipulation and session hijacking. I don't understand how does the secret\_key help and work under the hood, to prevent such breaches.

Not sure if my Django virtual environment is set up correctly.
I've set up a Django virtual environment. And when I start it by running:
>workon my\_django\_environment
The prompt then displays as follows:
>(my\_django\_environment) pi@raspberrypi:\~ $
Is this correct? Should the pi@raspberrypi:\~ still be there?
If I do this:
>(my\_django\_environment) pi@raspberrypi:\~ $ ls
Then it lists everything in my actual non virtual environment Home folder. But when following guides for setting this up - when they use ls it only shows the files in the virtual environment folder?

django best way to manage CRUD
I am performing a way to Delete/update/get in a same view like
​
class APICRUDVIEW(APIView):
def get(self,request,id):
....
def put(self,request,id):
....
​
def delete(self,request,id):
....
​
​
So that thing doesn't violate \`SRP\` (Single Responsibility Principle ). Like according to that a class strictly should perform a single task. Or its best way to include all these in a class in django ?

Three alternative ways of deploying Django
These are the notes from my talk at DjangoCon EU last week:
[https://gist.github.com/tomdyson/025be30855262287ae048bf4371d26f8](https://gist.github.com/tomdyson/025be30855262287ae048bf4371d26f8)
In 30 minutes I built a very simple Wagtail site and deployed it three times: on Dokku, Netlify and Google Cloud Run. Hopefully the instructions are enough for others to recreate the steps. Some caveats:
* although this demo uses Wagtail, any Django app with a working Dockerfile should work in the same way
* the steps are designed for a quick, impressive demo, and are not intended as best practice reference :)
* in particular, the Cloud Run steps are not complete - pushing a Docker-enabled app is really easy, but database connections and shell access (e.g. for running management commands) is annoyingly fiddly.
I believe the DjangoCon EU organisers will release talk videos in the next few weeks, but in the meantime here are the [slides from the talk](https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/e/2PACX-1vTP9sof4pZO6E9f6gnAVyrP0OW7y42npYdNCWYDMv2NmYivMXCvLdaO8y4eMBDdOh2otgrT-IqmfgNH/pub?start=false&loop=false&delayms=3000#slide=id.g98cee58a9e_0_41).

I created a webapp to help find new fantasy football team names. Feedback appreciated!
xpost from r/fantasyfootball
In my spare time I build things. I created [Fantasy Name Search (fantasynamesearch.com)](http://fantasynamesearch.com/) to help managers find new team names based on their current roster of players or any other key terms. I wrote everything in Python and used the pool of Yahoo's 2019 public leagues as source data for all 500,000 team names. I hope you find it somewhat useful in finding a new team name, if not just for fun to find the most outrageous team names. Let me know what you think!
For those more programmatically literate, I wrote an article describing the guts of the project and process in a little more detail: [https://medium.com/swlh/in-search-of-a-fantasy-football-name-5656e8af5944](https://medium.com/swlh/in-search-of-a-fantasy-football-name-5656e8af5944)

Should I split my API and Worker?
I have a flask api that currently puts jobs on rq queues to be processed. The api and the "processing engine" is all part of the same flask code base and I launch it all together in a single docker container (with docker-compose). Let's say I have this app deployed on an EC2.
I am confused on how to scale this when there is a bottleneck on jobs and not the API. If I scale the EC2 instances directly, I'll have multiple APIs running, but the bottleneck is in the queues.
So should I instead split my API and Queues into separate docker instances? And then deploy each of those on separate servers? That way I can load balance the queue servers separately but the API can still run on a single instance.
Just want to make sure I am thinking about this correctly.
