Note that you can basically save the website locally and since it has the full 2300 word list hard coded in the JS bundle, you can technically keep playing offline until 2028.

How do you monetize a game that already has an ad-less web version which works 100% offline and has hardcoded enough words to continue working until 2028? I can literally "save as" the html and the js bundle, put them in a folder,

reminds me of classic AngularJS. Love it. Definitely dislike how everything requires a ton of tools to build, I miss writing single-page angular pages.

You're mistaking what Youtube is. Not being on Youtube isn't censorship, it's the other way around. Being on Youtube is being given a pedestal. you also got your lesson about censorship backwards, tell me one time in history

Given that the image is cropped and it's hard to tell which part of the frame the cropping is for, I think you can easily guess which airport this is nearby, but definitely not at the house or even street precision.

But do those other places pay the creators such small percentages, and also do everything in their power to avoid paying real $? As far as I know Youtube doesn't have their own currency.

You could copy the jpg and mint yourself an NFT with it. It wouldn't have the same provenance, so obviously people could manually check, but it would probably fool the majority of people on Twitter.

I see. I wasn't aware of the non-subscription experience being so bad. Good to know, but yes the paid version definitely uses a song database comparable to any other streaming service.

How is Originals a "Google-based product"? It really irritates me how every tiny feature being removed is used to inflate the killedbygoogle-meme. Just like how there are lists claiming Google Maps is a "chat app". Can w

I think the idea of Origins was to give their most popular creators some extra resources to undertake a bigger project than usual. For example, MKBHD's Retro Tech is very much in line with his tech videos, or Vsauce's Mind Field i

Yep, most latest Originals were just timed exclusives I believe. Came to Premium members ad-free, then some time later became available widely with ads.

I disagree. There are still massive and popular shows. Look at Marvel shows, Ted Lasso, The Crown, etc. But since the field is saturated, there's also a focus on niche content that appeal to a specific underserved population. Content t

Exactly, GP is mistaking niche content with mediocre content. It's similar to indie games. A game like The Witness may not have the same audience as the latest Call of Duty, but the people who love that game really fucking love it. Whe

How close are we to having a webcam/microphone for smells? Even if it only detects a small fraction of the thousands of the existing molecules, it would definitely be interesting, especially with some learning model built on top.
