unpopular opinion: offering AI compute for free is bad for the industry, and players like Google should stop doing it.
It creates an unrealistic expectation that the models are actually cheap to run, and causes people to overuse compute on worthless tasks

I get that, but why am I charged based on something outside of my control (pageviews)? The font was not more or less difficult to produce based on how many people use my app.

Just pay for YouTube premium. We should reward YouTube for doing subscriptions right. You pay, they don't serve you ads, and creators get a better cut. Everyone wins.

Just got an email from Google they're about to suspend my account because they couldn't process payment on my bill. The bill in question?

I can appreciate it. Just was a bit of sticker shock plus I don’t necessarily agree with the licensing model. Pricing on pageviews is *rough*

The AWS key management service is the best AWS service. It truly reflects my feelings when using the AWS CLI.

In the midst of all of these high profile acquisitions and hires, I have something that I would like to share.
I'm lucky to have worked with Theo for the past four years. I'm proud of what we've built, especially with the success of T3 Chat.
Sometimes, the right opportunity hits at the right time. This is one of those times.
I just stole Theo's OpenAI backpack.

Your variable names may be bad, but are they bad enough that someone at Twilio sends you an email about it?

yes, that is the problem that I have with the licensing model. I am ok with paying a premium for a premium font, however pageviews are not something in my control, and the font does not provide value to me based on views.

By using Brave, you revoke your right to get support when sites break in inexplicable ways.

If a customer cancels a subscription after a failed payment, it should cancel the unpaid subscription immediately, not the next renewal.

After reading a lot of the comments here I want to clarify - I do not believe this is Stripe being “evil”, the party at fault here is credit card companies and banks. This is likely Stripe passing along a fee that previously they were just eating for us.

Once again, you did not “accidentally” subscribe.
Just tell me what was broken/missing/didn’t work as expected.
Don’t lie.

It’s not more valuable to me because I have more pageviews. Those views aren’t coming from the font I chose.

Tbqh before today I thought it was a brand identity thing, where they would commission fonts because they wanted something that was Theirs, but after this, I do see that there are economics to it.

It seems like every time I talk to one, they give the most base level info and advice for things that I already tried 20 hours ago.

Personally I think the best part (not /s) is that they’re not doing anything problematic (it’s not porn, piracy, or other abuse)

To everyone who has Opinions here:
- PAY DESIGNERS FOR THEIR WORK
- AI doesn't solve everything, stop pretending it does
- Yes, a BMW and a Honda both work as cars, but there are valid reasons why you might want one or the other.

First time I have seen this, at least we didn't have to eat a chargeback fee
(The user reported fraudulently after using the service, sucks that there is still probably the other dispute fee since it's so unlikely to actually win)
