[..]Who Makes $300,000 A Year?

Before we look at the income statement, I’d like to go through a list of various workers who will eventually make ~$300,000 on their own or in household income if they find someone who also works.

* A Bay Area Rapid Transit janitor made $234,000 + $36,000 in benefits in 2016

* A Bay Area Rapid Transit elevator technician made $235,814 + $48,429 in benefits in 2016

* Starting salaries for 22 year old employees at Facebook, Google, and Apple range from ($80,000 – $120,000) + ($10,000 – $50,000) in annual equity grants.

* 30 year old first year Associate in banking earns $150,000 in base salary + ($0 – $120,000) in bonus

* A 26 year old Airbnb employee shared he got a $250,000 total compensation package back in 2015

Can confirm - though I’m younger than the BBC Micro generation. After I got my BSc in CS I got a job offer from a west-coast FAANG company. My friends I went to uni with who are still in the UK doing jobs that require their degree make about 1/4 to 1/2 what I do, and I don’t even think I’m particularly good at what I do either. I note that at the pay-scales we’re talking about the “hidden” differences in CoL (like healthcare costs, etc) don’t really matter anymore.
I've had this problem recently. I can craft a search for something just slightly obscure and specific that should, nonetheless, have had plenty of hits on the "old web", let alone now on the many-times-larger web. But "no pages found". Loosen up the search and it's nothing but Google-friendly blogspam that isn't remotely related to what I'm trying to find. I call bullshit.
Are you arguing that Chinese or Indian drug companies don't make a profit? If so, that wouldn't be accurate at all.

That sounds more like targeted surveillance, though. "Hey, important government employee, you need to expect that your hotel room is bugged".

The web is fine, and search is fine. It's specifically Google search that's being destroyed by spam.

It's odd to put forward the hypothesis that DuckDuckGo is now better at search (aggregation) than Google is at search. But that seems to be where we have landed.

Curious what you mean?

In my experience, new paint coats are needed because of marks left on walls -- accumulated smudges, scuffs, furniture bangs, nicks, filled anchor holes, etc. None of which higher-quality paint has anything to do with... I assume?

Am I wrong? Assuming paint is applied correctly in the first place, what are the longevity benefits of using a higher-quality paint?

>* dating apps aren't the only way to meet people; you can still meet potential partners at parks/bars/work (Americans love office romances apparantly)

Think about doing a job search. You could find a potential employer at a park/bar/whatever, but it's a lot more efficient to go to a job site where people are actively looking to employ you. It's similar for dating. It's definitely possible to meet someone to date in the real world. It's just a lot less efficient than doing so in a space where the only people there are those actively looking for the same thing you are.

Plus, people typically go to the same bars/parks and have the same circle of friends. The absolute number of single people will be relatively small and you can go through them relatively quickly. There's also the awkwardness of dealing with failed relationships.

These past few months I have noticed several popular posts dissuading people from using VPNs. What do these people have to gain from people _not_ using VPNs?
Actually supply isn't that flexible to pick up such changes. The middle east has the ability to ramp up production. But its capabilities are limited. If a country like Norway would stop production we'll most likely see a significant rise in prices (making alternative fuel sources more interesting).

The problem is exactly with the demand for cheap energy. If the whole western world becomes carbon neutral we'll simply see the oil getting exported to other countries. There's plenty of margin for it to remain profitable.
"Which part of GR requires that GR => r^2?"

Well, there's the answer that it's what seems to fit the facts. GR may be one of the primo-grade "unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics" examples as it captures rather complex (to human minds) behavior in a handful of carefully-defined symbols, but technically it's still an empirical theory first and mathematical theory second.

Secondly, as others mention, there is the obvious answer that r^2 is how area changes as you increase the radius of a hypersphere in 3-D space; here I deliberately say "hypersphere" even though we're in 3-space here just to emphasize that it's particular to the the 3-D case. There is a theory that the reason gravity is so much weaker than the other forces is that it is "escaping" out in other dimensions we can't see, though that still leaves the stuff we can see expanding as inverse-square in what we can see.

(One of my favorite crazy dark-matter theories is that it lies in those other dimensions, and the reason we can't capture any is that it is literally not "in our dimension". That said, it still can't be conventional baryonic matter, because dark matter doesn't clump anything like it does. If there was a "parallel universe" or 10 just like ours, except they gravitationally interact, we'd see things like stars in orbit around "nothing", because the stars in the parallel universes are interacting. That's not what the universe looks like.)
The author does state "I could play the game on my A1000 Phoenix in PAL mode, but I really wanted the NTSC version."

The problem with running it in PAL mode is that it won't run at the correct speed (I assume). Most of the time when a game was converted to run on a PAL system, developers didn't adjust the game to take into consideration the slower framerate (50 Hz for PAL vs. 60 Hz for NTSC). This is very noticeable on action-based games like Sonic the Hedgehog, where if you are used to the NTSC version, playing the PAL version makes it feel like Sonic's feet are glued to the ground (not to mention how off the music sounds!).

There is really just so much that could be done better now that we have decades of hindsight. Sadly, I doubt it'll happen because supporting even a reasonable amount of existing hardware has become an exercise in futility. Theoretically one could start with a well defined subset of hardware, but that would make growth extremely difficult unless that hardware was both inexpensive and common enough for anyone to acquire it easily while also being good enough to cover a lot of use cases (and your OS amazing enough that people would willingly sacrifice to use it). A Raspberry Pi fits this requirement pretty well, but you still don't see useful new OSs on it do you?
Now Episcopalian, I grew up Southern Baptist, in the First Baptist Church of a mid-sized Texas city. There was a world of difference between the prevailing attitudes of mostly-multigenerational Baptists (at 5+ generations, you might even call us "ethnic Baptists") in a congregation with loads of doctors, teachers and very successful businessmen, and one with relatively recent converts and not many professionals. My Sunday School teachers always assumed I was going to college, and were proud that it was a competitive East Coast school.

My mom went through her metastatic cancer surrounded by an amazing hospice chaplain who happened to also be her Sunday School teacher, helpful Sunday School classmates and other church members, and realistic expectations all around. She was pretty blunt but cheerful about what was happening, and insisted on a DNR when it started looking really futile, which one of her fellow Baptist friends witnessed without hesitation.

It was a great comfort to be able to begin her obituary, "she passed away at home, surrounded by her family and friends," and her church community believed that she went to meet her Lord in peace.

Each collective would come up with it's own, or perhaps the games are done for free since they are getting paid via universal income. Or perhaps the games are sold at a sliding scale, pay what you want. Perhaps the profits all go back into the company which would/could provide for its employees non financial benefits, even living arrangements.
I've "lost" a few sites that way. Forgot the address, can craft several searches that years ago definitely would have brought up the exact site I want. But... nothing. Or it's buried so far in the search results I'll never find it. I need a good search on top of Google search, these days.

To be fair DDG rarely works for me in that way, either. I think that kind of old-school, precise search engine's just dead now. It seems like everyone's indices are a lot "fuzzier" and full of holes, like they're discarding large parts of pages from the index if those parts don't look important to the algo. Not just deprioritizing, but tossing those pieces out entirely. Except the algo's very wrong.
For HL7 I have not done so because I don't actively work with it(apart from helping a colleague every now and then). For other formats provided by the (Belgian) government I have. And even made some PRs to their services :)

The newer coment is one hour after the older one. I made it after I was downvoted. As for the spammy self-promotion, thank you, I linked to a HN comment (made yesterday, relevant to the matter but with no reactions at that moment) instead of the blog post directly exactly because I don't want to replicate links. Finally, while these comments will fade from attention, if not already, that blog post will remain, excuse me for giving first some evidence that's something wrong with Google Scholar. Obviously spam.
You hit the nail on the head. The more attractive and wealthy you are, the less effort you have to put into a relationship by default. As cold as it sounds, "If you don't like something, then leave, I can find someone else" is always there keeping your partner on their toes. If you aren't those things - you have to do a ton of things to keep your partner happy, while living under the threat of them leaving. It's stress, and effort.

In general, even happy "normal" relationships are a ton of work. They also anchor you to certain expectations and when you try to change something in life, you risk upsetting your partner. Want to study for an exam? Good luck having scandals about "not enough attention."

Furthermore, a lot of the time your partner won't grow with you. That's why you see a lot of people divorcing once they "make it".
I think it may be a simple consequence of the fact that Google Search is increasingly less of a searching engine and more of an answering engine.

I think Google has been explicit about this (I may be wrong, but I seem to remember thinking about this because Google themselves said it). Essentially, I believe, they are no longer concerned about being a way to navigate all the material found on the internet. Instead, they are concerned with answering the question posed by each search attempt.
Efforts? I think they have a different meaning of effort than anyone else :/
Creating a stable half-pel image filter
"Google is not forgetting the old web unless we see evidence of content disappearing from the index that have been consistently hosted at the same domain & URL since their original posts."

I can, very loosely and anecdotally, confirm.

My personal website has been online for about 20 years and I just picked some deep strings of text and searched for them and google has the whole thing indexed just fine ...
The post title gives the impression that parliament have decided permanently to never refine oil in the area. That's misleading. The Norwegian Labour Party has decided for the time being to not support the preliminary processes needed to start potential oil production in the area. The significance of this being that the power balance in parlament has shifted for the time being. However, this can change in the future!

It used to be. I remember when one of the selling points of google was how many pages they indexed and how fast your search came back over that data set.

I guess no one at Google is getting a promotion by making sure old pages can be returned.

Yeah, having people you can't afford to lose is an insane risk. Of course it's important to value all your employees, but accidents can always happen. Sometimes people get ill or have an unfortunate accident. Every piece of vital information needs to be known by at least two people and preferably stored somewhere.

But even then, lots of valuable knowledge and experience will still reside in the heads of people, and it's always good to have people share their information about going concerns.
That's all well and good until they decide to blackmail you, or post the video on the internet.

"Deprecating" might be a better term than "forgetting." Google's business isn't driven by long tail content. Probably it never was.

Maybe somewhere there is a Google disk with the the hash of an exact phrase the author typed into the search box. But statistically, that hash won't be found in hot memory vector space when cosine similarity runs on a nearby server. Finding the phrase would require a batch job that runs much longer than the engineered time limit Google imposes on search queries. Without a "let me know in 24 hours" option, Google's search will partition data into what should and shouldn't be accessible. That partition will always be according to Google's business goals. All the information may be indexed, but only the fraction of the index beneficial to Google will ever be accessible to ordinary users.

The crux of the story is that there is no business case for Google to return the author's web pages in search results even if the Wayback Machine implies that Google could.
This reminds me that I saw a TV programme once where they played the tape of a program for the BBC Micro over the air, and suggested that a viewer hold up their tape recorder to the TV speaker, to record it, for later loading onto the computer.

Anecdotally and perhaps unrelated - has anyone else noticed a decrease in the accuracy and general quality of Google search over the past 2-4 months?
