“A kid growing up today will never be smarter than AI” is depressing as fuck.

Also I have two kids and they’re both vastly smarter than “AI” in most ways.

Where are you from? In English it’s always the case that you put the dollar sign before the number.

Thanks! Yeah I guess it might be hard for some people, but I speak some French and Spanish and it’s not hard for me to remember to ¡use proper exclamation points in Spanish! or «use guillemets instead of quotation marks in French». This feels like the same sort of thing.

I understand that it’s different in other languages, but I often see this behavior from native US Americans who only speak English.

Yes, it’s relevant in this day and age, because it’s still incorrect to do it the other way (at least in English and with $£¥ and a couple others, as another commenter pointed out).

When I read “20$” my first thought is that the person writing it didn’t pay attention in elementary school.

And being lenient about it on the web leads to the behavior leaking into the real world on things like shop signs.

Don’t even get me started on people who (mostly IRL) write things like “0.99¢” which makes me want to give them a cent and tell them to keep the change.

Literally every year since the internet was created: the dollar sign goes before the number, my dude.

It seems like maybe the commenters here thus far are missing the (obvious from the title) fact that this is not affiliated with Musk or “X” at all? I admire the aggressiveness of this move and I’ll be rooting for them.
