Subpixel font rendering is critical for readability but, as the author points out, it's a tragedy that we can't get pixel layout specs from the existing display standards.

The details seem to be concentrated in this YouTube video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFrVcTmxycg

I'm not pursuaded by this argument. Good luck trying to fight against freedom of speech.

YouTube is effectively a Google Podcasts platform already.

Paying for YouTube Premium to avoid ads is some of the best money I spend each month. I wish I could do the same for Spotify podcast ads. I do pay for Spotify already to avoid ads in music, but I can't seem to avoid them for the Joe Rogan Experience.

Lots of 'um ackshually' in the replies here. This my first time seeing the 'new' spelling and I don't like it. I'll keep spelling it Turkey.

Same feeling for Cote D'Ivoire - I'll just say the Ivory Coast

If I had to quantify, I'd say maybe on the order of ~$10/month, like a media subscription.

Hard to say for sure, and hard for me to predict where the market would price a service like ChatGPT long-term.

It's useful as a learning tool. I can ask it how to do almost anything, or how almost anything works.

When I want to learn how to do something new in a programming language, I ask ChatGPT and it explains in detail with a first pass example in code.

Interesting to see this on hacker news. Obviously illegal human trafficking is abhorrent, and I hope we learn more about the charges soon.

It's also interesting that he became an internet phenomenon after previous similar allegations, so I've always be apprehensive about him and people like him.

This is a deranged and nonsensical response. We all knew what boys and girls where until yesterday. Leave the kids alone.

Your argument sounds like 'these ideas are wrong so yours is wrong too' without contending with the content of my arguments and examples.

I'm totally willing to be kind and treat other people with respect. Never claimed otherwise.

But I also hope people see the errors of their ways, how harmful it can be, and to not try to indulge children and teenagers who get caught up in it. Leave the kids alone.
