The minimum withdrawal is 10 usd or 20 usd, depending on where you'll be withrdrawing it to. You have less than that in your account and won't be using Paypal soon? say goodbye to those 7 dollars.

No, if you don't do transactions for 1 year, they charge you a $10 inactivity fee.

I don’t even know who this is marketed towards.

If their intention is to target the general public, then I think they're out of touch with reality, and it doesn’t seem targeted at AI enthusiasts either.

AFAIK, all current versions of Android have Google Play Services. It's an essential part of the "official" Android.

In my opinion, he asks the right questions and lets the guests speak, which is something that can't be said about the rest of tech podcasts.

For example, at some point I grew very tired of the superficiality of the questions that Lex Friedman asks his very technical guests. He seems to be more interested into taking the conversation into a philosophy freshman's essay about technology instead of talking about technology itself.

Hearing the Dwarkesh podcast was a breath of fresh air in that regard.
