I wish the could just tag particular subtumblrs as NSFW or something and filter these by default. Users should be let to choose for themselves. Banning adult content is ridiculous.
Anyone have stats on how much of Tumblr is adult? My impression was that it is a huge percentage of it.
Yeah a fair comparison would be high viewership but freely available stuff like SNL.
I don't think the adult industry has truly been able to simplify things as much as products like tumblr (and other social media networks.)

Fetlife probably does a good job for certain 'niches'.

What I mean is, all the 'tumblrees' and "their" 'content' ( so much air-quote) will want to go somewhere. En masse. Soon. Most likely in protest.
Do you have a permalink to that talk? I tried to go to their site but couldn't get past the 'Empathy Bot'
people have become so accustomed to censored things, and often so supporting of them , that i wouldnt be surprised if the NSA just went ahead and be public with it. As for china, google can be transparent about it to the rest of the world, they are a US company.
Appendix A: http://infolab.stanford.edu/~backrub/google.html

Larry and Sergey contend that ads incentivize providing poorer quality search results so that users click on ads, that ad-funded search engines are inherently biased towards advertisers and against the needs of consumers, and that it's crucial that we have a transparent search engine in the academic realm.

It's amazing how prescient Larry Page and Sergey Brin truly were at the time. If we ever invent time travel we should introduce college-age Larry and Sergey to their own ad-based corporate monopoly with a completely secretive search algorithm.
Microsoft company culture was not something everyone talked or dreamed about unlike Google. So doing what they do was not somehthing that shocked people. You need a search engine?, here you go, have some chinese Bing. No one bats an eye.

But Google has changed a lot. This makes developers sad.
>Garum, a fish-based condiment, was put on everything.

Aside: It's always been so interesting to me to learn about the smells, flavors, and real life of people back then. Garum is a perfect example of this. The Romans really did put the stuff on everything. It's not just a fish based condiment, it was a very integral part of Roman food and life. You make it by fermenting fish in salt in the Mediterranean sun for a few months and then go about straining the 'pulp' until it runs clear (there is a LOT more to it than that, but thems the basics). Think something like fish sauce. Modern versions are very savory and deep in flavor; super umami sauce. Such things are, today, very foreign seeming.

I also see this as a market opportunity for a startup to adapt / improve on tumblr and fill the void. An unexpected, and permanent content restriction on a major platform is a disruptive event.
Canadian companies think that -30C or -22F in winter is something that most talented growth marketers can't pass up. And those that are in Vancouver think that Vancouver is the best place on earth in spite of the low salaries and the unaffordable real estate.
AAA games are pretty much making that decision exclusively based on the financials. Steam takes a big cut (relatively), if everyone already knows about your game and where to find it.

I come from a primarily religious background, so I'm not sure my position will be helpful for a non-religious solution.

But I will go into how I think about these things anyway, because its an important question with important answers.

Basically, I consider death as a transition. This life's purpose isn't to perform to any human standard; so wealth, fame, notoriety, happiness, etc. are not direct goals of mine. Nor is it a goal of mine to have a lasting impact. I'm not here to impress anyone, or look or act in any particular way.

Some of those things may be a byproduct of how I live my life, but they are not necessary conditions to live 'successfully'.

I think that I should address my definition of success: 'success' in this life means to love God and love people. So what is 'love' (baby, don't hurt me)? Love is not an emotional state, rather it is the active process of listening, respecting, and acting on another's words and needs.

Coming back to mortality: being reminded that I am not long for this world reminds me of the greater purpose of life, relieves stress from performance related anxiety, and curbs worry about physical/mental illness and other maladies, money issues aren't issues anymore, and so on, because I know God will take care of me.
No, it is not the internet! It is a recommendation engine. It is a content network in the business of profit. It is a social entrapment.

The internet is a bunch of channels (websites) with subchannels (groups). Sometimes channels that have earned far too much legitimacy overflow into illegitimate corners. And that is a problem. It is like CNN with great content and then having crappy content. How do you start ranking sites then? How do you as a website evaluator start white-listing domains then?

I know you are defending free speech while encouraging selective roaming. But that is not an easy act. Some have difficulty while others do not. Some can moderate themselves while others cannot. Restriction + Avoidance is better than Exposure + Ignorance towards these harmful things.
But there is some truth to this. As a user, I found cn.bing.com to be much more useful than Baidu even if it was also censored. Most of my searches are non-political anyways.

More to the point, I really appreciated how, when Google was in China, that they would say something like "some results not returned because censorship!", which Bing had to copy despite the Chinese government being annoyed by that.

If Google was committed similarly to censoring in a more transparent way (being forthcoming when censorship is happening), that would be a huge improvement over the status quo.
Pichai, now is your opportunity for future generations of Americans to not try to awkwardly avoid talking about you when Europeans grill them about the history of American sympathizers with what will then be known as one of the greatest bloody disasters in history.
We all have plenty of tasks that we kind of don't want to do, or feel they're a burden, or they somehow take us out of our comfort zone...

This is a trick I learned that works like a charm to get myself into the right mindset and wanting to actually do the task: think how finishing the task will make you feel.

Try really hard to envision a great outcome of a given meeting with customers. What it will mean for you, your project, your company...

With some exercise you will really fool your brain.

Apply it with everything. Even with personal stuff. Don't want to wash those dishes? Think about what a nice, tidy kitchen looks and smells like.

It's one of those weird hacks in my life that actually make me get stuff done.
Agreed. And the harder aspect of this is to actively listen to all parties at the same time holding the questions in my mind and allowing time in the discussion for them to get answered. Notes really help here.

Watch women and men in a meeting, men will talk over people, interject wisdoms, either comments or questions. While women will sit back and let the questions get answered, and then when enough time will go by will ask the unaswered questions.

One of the hardest things for a group to do is leave enough dead air so that others can speak, esp over remote connections.

Is that true? I thought her claims were investigated in detail and found to be clearly false, with witnesses she said were there saying they had no clue what she was talking about and remembered no such party, her own testimony contradicted itself, etc. And then the fact that she waited decades to do anything about it.

The last I heard about Kavanaugh he'd been totally exonerated. There's no reason to believe he did anything to this woman.
Probably because they are not a market leader and therefore get scrutinized less by the general public / HN.

Would you happen to expect any new positions for data analysis / research or similar? Or a way to subscribe to hiring announcements? Thanks!
I and many self funded entrepreneurs are too cheap for this.

The best thing I’ve done to meet people is hosting in-person Indie Hackers meetups.
Seems close to the Dilbert geezer's Goals vs Systems. I work on systems more than goals myself and it seems to work for my humble tasks.

First Intel needs to learn how to make discrete GPUs that are actually worthwhile to target.
its a bit of a slippery slope though isnt it?

look at gab getting their domain and cloud hosting dropped... censorship is moving down the stack. why wouldn't it hit the IX's?
hahaha. obvious startup idea is obvious
Bit of a straw man, but I imagine products that need 24/7 support would have more than a single owner and would be doing some sort of code review, thus it's not about you being on-call for eternity, just that you should be involved in the process of supporting code so that you write code that is supportable.
There is such research actually. Look at the studies by Kanin, Jan, and their replications. The topic of what proportion of allegations are false is studied from time to time, but not often, because the studies that are done usually report eye-wateringly high figures.

In the UK, official government research put the figure at 10% of all (rape) accusations being false. But if you read the reports, you'll see that the true figure must be much higher, as the methodology reclassifies lots of data points to avoid them being considered false.
Good stuff. Every sport has great partnerships (Jordon - Pippen, Brady - Gronk) and I always wondered if such a thing would even be possible in SE as I've felt overly self conscious and inefficient while pair programming.

Though what really makes this my favorite long read of the year is how it follows their story over the course of Google's rise and the subtle juxtapositions between early Google of "doors across sawhorses" and today with "Level 0-11". Given all the recent news with engineer walkouts and protests it makes you realize that Google have probably done the best job of handling the scaling challenges of being a unicorn and making the necessary cultural adjustments as they grew in size.
If advertising costs go down because of AI, then advertising prices will go down too. That money then goes somewhere else entirely, but anyhow gets spent.

If there seems to be more money around for various causes than before, that looks to the market as if money supply has increased. Which definitely will cause inflation.

Business seems to be getting more profitable because of that applied math, so investing in it seems smart. True deflation would see value of money to shoot up so quickly, that you are better of if you just stuff cash under your mattress.
> It is worth noting that many gladiators, and Olympic competitors, were in fact not slaves and many were actually quite wealthy.

Gladiators and Olympic competitors are completely different things. Olympic competitors were free men - I don't think slaves where allowed to participate.

Gladiators on the other hand were mostly slaves. It was considered a dishonorable occupation - basically on the level of prostitution - and therefore not suitable for a free man. If a free man partook in gladiatorial combat he would lose a number of civil rights.

Chariots were owned by wealthy free men, and presumably they would be the ones paying a fine.

I'm not a C man, but afaiu, "ABC" is syntactic sugar for a char pointer to that string. So it works like any pointer with regard to index access.

You know that Kavanaugh was shortlisted by Romney during the 2012 presidential campaign? Predating Dr. Ford's timeline for documenting the alleged abuse during therapy.

I'm the author. Why not a blog post? The idea is that the page is not frozen / done and gets updated (from time-to-time) and, yes, you (in theory) can contribute too. In practice doesn't really happen.

It could be argued rights are something a person has. Once you die, you are no longer a person. Dead people don't have a right to vote.

I think a much stronger argument is to be made that your surviving family/friends have a right to privacy that somehow includes aspects of deceased relatives lives staying secret. But that makes it a right for the living, not the dead.
I mean, the author certainly used random forests, seeing as he invented them:

What are those PeerDependencies in a Node.js project?
OK, I'm now lost what are you trying to refute. Perhaps reading the comment I was replying to originally for the context would help understanding the point I was addressing. I never mentioned being on-call or having a good sleep at all.
Is digitisation in shipping disruption or racketeering?
I think it depends on your context. From theoretical point of view you can treat both (feature engineering and ML) as transformation defined by some function with parameters. From practical point of view, they can differ a lot. Imagine, you would like to handle in a different way: feature transformation that can be done on 1M rows and 2 columns in 5 seconds, and training of ML model that can take 7 days to train.
>"Code had been written to show only Chinese air quality data from an unnamed source in Beijing"

Anyone remember "To organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful."?
I think all cases that are based only/mostly on a victim's statement are very difficult to prove. In my other comment, I was pointing out that sex-based cases are more likely to be based mostly on a victim's statement than other cases.
The mention of the "Additron" tube was interesting. Was this one of the first instances of "integrating" a circuit into a single component?
Came to say I agree with village-idiot, many if not everyone overestimate their emotional resilience and those that become victims usually become so inadvertently and don't realize the ramifications until it's either too late or a real steep climb to get back up. QAnon might not be the most common rabbit hole, but it was in all fairness just an example. The most common example is probably drugs and alcohol.
That's exactly the point. You want to be financially independent, or at least earn enough to live to reduce the risk of being corrupted by ad tech money.
Nice idea on subscribing to hiring announcements, though we don't have that yet. Our backend team (the position that is up) does that type of work, and so there might be a good fit there.

This is such an off tanget comment, made worse by the fact that it pretends to me on-topic.

This adds nothing of value to the conversation and only distracts from conversations worth having about the question asked by the parent, and shoots down the work that’s gone into that comment.

> From what I understand, as long as you use the very latest version of Java then using Oracle Java is free.

No longer true for commercial use. This article is about Java 8. But Oracle Java 11 is no longer free for any commercial use. It is free for personal or development purposes.
Stating a fact isn't flamebaiting.
Yes, but makefiles still exist, and they still provide build configuration. That they're off to the side during most incremental builds is a separate matter.
Rather than being a case of the developers' interest not being aligned with Valve, it is possible that they're not aligned with the users. You point out users use Steam extensively, could that be attributed partially to the users liking the recommendation algorithm? If the algorithm was changed to favour hardworking indie devs at say, the expense of AAA studios, would Steam users still use it as much?

Brain hack: Formulate your thinking in terms of positive statements.

Example:

* Negative statement: Don't use object inheritance, it leads to confusing code.

* Positive statement: Try to make your inheritance tree flatter, this helps make more straightforward code.

The negative statement is both discouraging and ambiguous. When you tell someone or yourself to not do a thing, it begs the question, "What should be done instead?" Meanwhile, the positive statement is incisive and gives the listener better direction.

If you can spot something to not do, you can probably come up with something to do as well. This shift in thinking seems small, but has had a profound impact on how I interact with the world, and improved my outlook on life, work and relationships.
