Indeed, the cooling infra needed for cryo makes the price per watt go up by unreasonable amounts per unit length.
Also your cryo liquid should ideally be something that doesn't do the following things:
1. Leaks — shouldn't cause asphyxiation risk to humans who need to fix the leak.
2. Broken cable due to disaster – coolant doesn't turn into explosives when in contact with high voltage high current electricity.
However, UHV DC electricity in tunnels could be financially attractive and safe if you can cool the tunnels properly (no superconducting cryo)

AC transformers are so much cheaper than DC converter stations that I don’t think this will ever be true. At the distances HVDC has a distinct advantage at, you wouldn’t be building tunnels. HVDC is mostly useful for grid ties between unsynchronized grids.
Disagree. While documentation is often out of date, the threshold for maintaining it properly has been lowered, so your team should be doing everything it can to surface effective docs to devs and AIs looking for them. This, in turn, also lowers the barrier to writing good docs since your team's exposure to good docs increases.
If you read great books all the time, you will find yourself more skilled at identifying good versus bad writing.
THIS. I'm constantly sending typos in texts now even when typing slower on purpose. The software is clearly making choices for me that are wrong and I can't do anything about it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
O'Reilly's mobile app is always a moment of zen: You open it to read a book to enhance your professional skills, but alas, the app is obviously poorly written despite being created by people in your profession (who seem to have not read the books?)
Anyway, the web experience has been pretty good for a while, so I use that now.
You can't just "swap a font out" without redoing all the work.
Type layout in Japanese in particular has a system of layered, complex rules that include rules that define how to combine Western glyphs with Japanese glyphs and produce visually harmonic work. Swapping a font out due to a cost issue is not workable.
Also, not all pan-asian fonts contain all the glyphs you need to render all the characters you want. A CJK font has tens of thousands of characters, and it wouldn't surprise me if some of these video games will use fonts with particular glyphs that are not always included in other fonts.
Monotype is giving these customers the finger while also ramming a bulldozer in their asses with this change. It's completely unacceptable, painfully rude, and ridiculously tone deaf. In fairness, this is totally on brand for Monotype.
if it were true, it would be a big miss to not point that out when you run out of credit, in their pricing page, or anywhere in their app.
I should also mention that the first time I prompted it, I got a different 'overloaded' type out of credit message. The one I got at the end was different.
I've rotated on paying the $200/month plans with Anthropic, Cursor, and OpenAI. But never Google's. They have maybe the best raw power in their models - smartest, and extremely fast for what they are. But they always drop the ball on usability. Both in terms of software surrounding the model and raw model attitude. These things matter.
