Actually, in Java 24 it's:

void main() { println("Hello World"); }

Ketamin kicked in and he thinks people like him again.

He's toxic now. Giving money to candidates will have the opposite effect.

You don’t ban pipes, because they can be used to make pipe-bombs. You ban making pipe-bombs. Your proposals are so broad they would ban way too many things that are ok.

Ok, I see your point. You think that videos or random kids dancing on TikTok or kids you don't know doing theater are somehow valuable are should be protected. Personally I don't know who enjoys those videos and I think banning all of them achieves the desired goal without sacrificing anything of value. I thought that only other kids watch those videos and that everything about it is harmful. It basically trains easy to influence kids to fight for internet points, teaches the the wrong values and promotes bullying. You clearly think that having kids on TikToc have some benefits. We're not going to agree about this.

As for phones, if we have science proving that they are harmful to kids I don't see how they are different from cigarettes or alcohol. Then again, we let parents fuck up their kids in many different ways so I guess you're right here and we should leave it to them. Their are free to take care of their children if they want to and we can't force everyone to be a good parent anyway.

Football fans would willingly go to a gulag to watch the World Cup. They went to Qatar without any hesitation. 99% of people don't take politics, human rights or morality into consideration when planning entertainment.

Catching former ICE agents and smashing their heads with baseball bats I suppose. Or carving 'MAGA' on their foreheads with knifes.

No, I don't mean prompting users. Typical ways to increase conversion rate are locking popular features behind the subscription (like you need premium account to comment), making some content available only to premium users or limiting the amount of content you can access as a free user (like only 2h per day). So far I'm still watching videos on youtube without even creating an account and without ads (ad-block).

Is it because it's not how they make money now?

Sorry but you're completely missing the point. You can't compare 5% conversion rate of a subscription-first model and ad-first model. Youtube is optimizing their business around ads, they are definitely not doing everything they can to increase their conversion rate. ChatGPT on the other hand is aiming for as high conversion rate as possible. I don't know if 5% conversion rate is high or low for ChatGPT but comparing it with YT simply doesn't make sense.

I was thinking all night and my bet is on this guy:

That's cute but seriously, who do you think will take over after Trump dies?

I asked Claude for the data (hehe):

"YouTube is primarily an advertising-driven business model (73% ads vs 27% subscriptions), while ChatGPT operates as a subscription-first business (84% subscriptions vs 15% API/other revenue)."

See the difference?
