@SKS If you stop an instance, you’re not billed for the GPU time - billing is based on time spent running, not time spent existing. There is a small charge to keep an instance’s data around, but almost all of the instances’ cost is billed only when running. If you destroy an instance, any data on it will be lost. You can download your notebook using jupyter’s download button:
@jeremy That’s a pretty reasonable concern! We’d like to be transparent by design rather than throwing up a dialog box or etc. We’re thinking about how to best display levels of provider verification and security on the cards.
(To be honest, I feel like just the fact that we share that we’re doing peer rentals at all is already much more transparent than competitors who are using peer providers but obfuscating it.)
Also, the fastai promo code is on its way to running out. Just a heads up! If you have trouble applying it, that might be why, but reply here, email us, or poke us on discord if you have any issues.
