I too find it unreadable, I guess that's the downside of working on this stuff every day, you get to really hate seeing it.
It does tell you that if even 95% of HN can't tell, then 99% of the public can't tell. Which is pretty incredible.

What a surprise.. This has become the new "the default password was admin and no one changed it". And I remember vendors getting enough flak for those defaults that most of them changed them.
You can add Korea to this list.
Bans on recommendation systems. Doesn't need much thought to figure out. Instant 90% harm reduction.
> clearly their legal team went over it with a fine tooth comb
If their legal team in fact did, they'll have said "yup, that payment page won't fly if you'd get sued in Germany/Australia/anywhere with remotely decent consumer protections" and Anthropic just decided to roll with it anyway as they did while breaking millions of websites' ToS, pirating half the world's books, academic papers and more. As the chance they'll actually get sued and receive meaningful punishment is negligible.
You're either incredibly naive, are doing similar things and justifying it, or have a personal stake in this. There's no other explanation. You can look at my comment history and see that I'm generally nice and don't comment in this manner, but you're leaving no other option as this can no longer be framed as good faith.
Max plan
5x more usage than Pro $100.00/month + tax
Save 50% 20x more usage than Pro $200.00/month + tax
Especially with the "save 50%", if they're not actually offering 4x that of 5x, that's easily illegal false advertising in half the territories Anthropic's customers are located in.
Voting should be weighted compared to average remaining life expectancy, for one.
And yes, I too have parents of that age, and yes, they're still mentally sharp.
Switzerland is one of the few countries where getting paid more in the US for the same job would generally not be an "as usual" :) The large majority of equivalent jobs gets paid more in Switzerland, including office ones. The ones that don't are the outliers (which are of course greatly overrepresented here on HN).
This is IME, so feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
> Choose 5x or 20x more usage per session than Pro*
If a recruiter tells you you'll be getting "20x more money per hour" at this new startup, and you go there and you get only 6x, you're going to have a very different tone than "you sort of implied 20x".
Counterexample: animals hoarding food for winter time, etc.
Is that 0.5 drone for spare parts?
And no, it's not just the em-dashes.
I do this for a living, FWIW.
