I chuckled when on the front page, the first book is Das Kapital. And if you click on Biographies, lo and behold: Mein Kampf! (I half expected when clicking on Fiction to get the Bible >:) )

Kids, gather 'round, story time: my first computer when I was a kid was a communist hacky clone of a ZX Spectrum; and at one point I managed to install CP/M on it (I had no idea at the time what an OS was, I just intuit that it was a 'big deal'); and for whatever reason, this OS used a very tall and narrow font and I loved it sooo much that ever since then, I associate the tall narrow fonts with the halcyon time of excitement and exploration of those innocent days.

I put Iosevka everywhere, not only in text editors but browsers and other desktop apps. It's one of the first things to do on a fresh machine. Thank you very much, @be5invis!

I just spilled my coffee; sorry for the trivial remark, but the name means 'pubic hairs' in Romanian. Apologies.. I thought it's better for you to know and ignore than not to (not quite a big population target for you, I imagine, anyway).

Oh, it will sell! For the very reason it's $230 (remember the "I am Rich" app of olden days?).

So if only you could have kept your mouth shut, this would have never happened.. Burn the witch!

Nice work! How do you verify correctness of the generated exercises and explanations? To me this looks the biggest risk in becoming a user: what if my _teacher_ teaches me subtle nonsense that I cannot easily detect since I'm learning and unfamiliar with the material (even if it's only in the 1-2% of cases)? Human teachers make mistakes too, but an LLM cannot _understand_ that it made one... So.. how do you solve for this issue of trust?

please, someone tell me this is satire!

(or maybe they all did it)

> > Why don't they buy a considerable stake in these American social media companies

also because there's this thing with physical location of the data: europeans' private data must never leave the EU

fortune favors those prepared

But indeed, if they had the _option_ to escape from reality from time to time, people like Cypher would be happier (I know I am when I do it :D). Indeed the irony of partaking precisely in the thing that you fight against is there; however, what they actually fight against is the enslavement by it, not the casual enjoyment of it: it's bad to be a medieval serf forced to toil the soil, it's quite another thing to play gardener to take your mind off the day..

They have an unsophisticated, binary view of the world (for plot reasons, I guess) while some nuance and tolerance would have had made a more realistic and_human_take on the situation.

It may depend on how the whole ecosystem evolves: if the competition starts doing similar stuff, then you would have no alternative but to stick with one of them and accept the introduction of ads.

That's the funny thing about oligopoly, you know...

yeah.. these days you really can't tell; every opinion, its counter-opinion, its meta-counter, its sarcastic spin, its trolling version, its counter-trolling, meta-counter-trolling versions.. everything (in the absence of body language cues etc.) is equally likely, which if I recall correctly is the definition of maximal entropy of information, i.e. random noise

as far as I understood it, it was a tongue-in-cheek, a joke... or are you trolling too (in which case joke's on me :D)?
