My experience is limited, so take with a grain of salt: my sense so far is that it helps stamp out any statistical/numerical inefficiencies in the markets that humans would otherwise be inefficient/slow to adjust to. For instance, if a straight up arbitrage opportunity exists across exchanges, automated strategies ensure that it goes away very quickly, much more quickly than discretionary human traders would. If there are proven statistical trends to the markets, then those should be acted on as well, because it means we'll arrive at the fair price of an asset sooner rather than later. A simple example: if a stock closely tracks the price of oil, and there's a quick uptick in the price of oil, it's better for the price of the stock to get immediately adjusted upwards rather than after a delay (and purely quantitative, automated strategies make this happen). I think the name of the game is that you have a bunch of people acting in their best interest, and thereby giving us an efficient market, which benefits the rest of the world by ensuring low slippage, fair prices, high liquidity, etc.
Pretty old idea. I'd go for compliance and tested https://privnote.com/
With how readily fake/modified content proliferates on the internet already and how much money tabloids make off made-up stories and faked photos, can you really argue that there is zero negative social impact from fakes?

Even for someone with decent media literacy, proving 'this is faked' is a lot harder than 'this is some old content falsely labeled as new content', because you can't just look for the original source. You have to try to identify what the original source was pre-fake, and that's a LOT harder with deepfakes.

>This leads to situations where the query seems to work fine until something changes in either the data balance or the available indexes (or some change is made to the query itself) that makes the processing happen a different way around so a different arbitrary value starts to get selected for the same group in the same query.

That's a great point

Son of a friend works for Rolls and gave me the same story on protective coatings. They tried to trim costs too far on the final stage of the blade hardening process. The BBG article has an Emirates exec demanding fit for purpose aircraft. But, IMHO, relentless downward pressure on costs from us (the passengers) and the airlines is pushing all the manufacturers to cut to the bone. And then beyond the bone. Someone once asked John Glenn what he was thinking when he sat on top of a rocket ready to launch. His reply: "every component built by the lowest bidder!". As ever, you get what you pay for...

Seems like cool tech, but not something that your average user would notice positively.
This is partly due to the application of computer controls and partly due to the application of things like direct fuel injection, turbocharging, etc. that were previously available only on racing or aircraft engines.

For example, the Cosworth DFV normally aspirated Formula 1 engine with 182 cubic inches was making over 520 horsepower (2.9 / cubic inch) by the end of its career in 1983.
it could be fun to write meta games on top of this.

Did we solve car accidents yet? I mean, people are working on it with self-driving cars, but we've been paying a death tax for the proliferation of automobiles for something like a hundred years now. Big pile of dead bodies waiting for that one new technological solution... Instead we've been chipping away at the massive set of problems cars created one at a time, because we allowed the problems to appear and we got used to cars. Meanwhile, new problems appear that we can't easily fix - people still look at their phones while driving and that wasn't an issue ~20 years ago.
He would have to run up a lot of stairs though. But with prefect absence of leakage (a precondition for the bucket-weilder's success was well), proper rain protection and good ventilation it might be just as fast for all practical considerations (not fast at all) to just stand back and allow evaporation to do the job.

What I find even more impressive than the engineering dimension is that a market for those things exist, and how easily the the basic financial craftsmanship of playing through price/demand curves and ROI apparently scales. Because the business side looks so amazingly calm from the outside, entirely not like some Isambard Kingdom Brunel cable laying adventure or a 21st century version thereof (seriously, make a movie about that guy and get Musk to play him)
Study title: "Does Transparency in Moderation Really Matter?: User Behavior After Content Removal Explanations on Reddit".

Abstract:

> When posts are removed on a social media platform, users may or may not receive an explanation. What kinds of explanations are provided? Do those explanations matter? Using a sample of 32 million Reddit posts, we characterize the removal explanations that are provided to Redditors, and link them to measures of subsequent user behaviors—including future post submissions and future post removals. Adopting a topic modeling approach, we show that removal explanations often provide information that educate users about the social norms of the community, thereby (theoretically) preparing them to become a productive member. We build regression models that show evidence of removal explanations playing a role in future user activity. Most importantly, we show that offering explanations for content moderation reduces the odds of future post removals. Additionally, explanations provided by human moderators did not have a significant advantage over explanations provided by bots for reducing future post removals. We propose design solutions that can promote the efficient use of explanation mechanisms, reflecting on how automated moderation tools can contribute to this space. Overall, our findings suggest that removal explanations may be under-utilized in moderation practices, and it is potentially worthwhile for community managers to invest time and resources into providing them.

That may be OK in simple cases where you can easily eyeball it, if you're only interested in aggregated CPU time as a metric, and if you win most from optimizing the obvious function in all modes of the program. That's not necessarily the case in complex scientific codes, for instance, especially parallel ones.
So first thing here is - you accept the principle that the winner should pay their own costs. Since as you say, if the company has five lawyers, they have to pay for four of them. So there's no real difference. If they hire ten lawyers, and your lawyer says "I need help to do it" you're screwed - either you pay the extra lawyer out of your own pocket, or you ask your lawyer to do the best job they can do. The difference is just how much shit flows in when you open the gate - not how much shit is there, or which direction it flows.

neither solve the issues air travel does. the amount of rail needed to funnel the same amount of traffic one of the larger airports generate would be phenomenal let alone where could you even put it down? then of course comes the small problem of how many miles cross ocean which puts rail right out of the equation.

Seriously, look at an airport. get the number of flights and where they come from and their frequency, now imagine trying to build a sufficient number of rail lines to do the same.

air travel saves time that no rail line could except in short hop scenarios where extra time to process through an airport might tip a balance. let alone you can have nearly an number of planes in flight between two points
If anything's actually going to create that echo chamber people shout about, it's this. Unfortunately platform operators have proven that they can't be counted on to actually moderate (fake content is big money) and we certainly don't want the government to be responsible for it.

Just because you prefer it doesn't mean others do or that you should only offer a single option because it's "better".

If I'm a creator and I've already got a Patreon userbase then forcing me to switch to another similar service just to use PeerTube is an unnecessary hurdle so I'll carry on the path of least resistance which is not using PeerTube.
Purchasing is also an expensive operation. Depending on the company, this might taking a few meetings scheduled over the course of multiple weeks. Maybe fill a procurement form. All things the developer hates.

Once that's done, the service has to be integrated with their Single-sign on platform. If they are lucky. Otherwise they will have to use a shared password manager, which is likely an excel sheet in the shared drive.

Or they can develop a quick hack, spin up a few servers on AWS that cost much more per month than the service. But they can do it on their own schedule. That's the big difference once you are setup as an approved vendor in a big organization.
What people say or indicate they want and what people need can be two very different things. The long term potential backlash from solving for the former should be weighed against the short term gains, but that's tricky!
Historically removing anonymous posting and sharing from services like facebook and youtube hasn't done much to solve these problems. Why would government-backed IDs and reputation scores attached to posts fix it, specifically? One person one upvote? Does that really help if thousands of people are getting duped by the fake content and upvoting it?

For a reputation system to actually work, you end up having to limit it to hand-picked "experts", and now it's a question of how you pick them and how you stop regulatory capture from ruining the system (spoiler alert: it will)

Well then I guess you've reasoned yourself into a nice position from which you can claim the problem I routinely handle cleanly almost every day, is out of scope and unworthy of attention. This is the one important feature of Ruby that has enabled me to stay working without containers.

I'm a developer that supports multiple production applications, and I frequently need to make my development environment as similar to production as possible in order to reproduce a production issue for debugging purposes. I depend on that isolation to be able to do this. My work environment is such that I'm not generally permitted to use containers in production (yet). So it stands to reason through your argument that perhaps I shouldn't use them in development either. It sounds like if I were using Python as well instead of Ruby, I'd be having a much harder time.

Honestly, if I could use containers in dev and prod I would, I truly do believe the grass is greener ;) but I would not sacrifice this marvelous isolation tech, in fact I'd prefer to take RVM with me into docker-land so that I can A-B test Ruby versions within the same container image, and be guaranteed that all my cluster's worker nodes will not have to take extraordinary measures and carry both images in order to ensure the application can boot without a download delay, whenever we have to revert the canary (or whatever other minor potentially reversible lifecycle event would normally trigger a node to need to download a new, expensive base set of image layers all over again.)

Well no kidding. I used this a couple days ago with a coworker where we had to make a quick diagram and didn't know what to use. I searched google, this came up quickly, was able to get it on drive so he and I could each do work on it, and then able to export to pdf pretty seamlessly. Figure if it shows up on HN a few days after discovering and using it myself, I should write about the positive experience.

I'm a little confused by your comment. If his 48 hour rewrite of the codebase didn't end up working out well (and how could it really), why not just rollback to where you were previously? That way you wouldn't need to spend 6 months making it work?
Pollution causing jet engine issues is scary. The countries and engineers building the engines don't encounter extreme pollution and the places experiencing the worst pollution aren't major hubs for aircraft development. It's an "out of sight/out of mind" type of issue during a record period of air travel growth all around the world

I hope ICAO can begin studying the affects of pollution on aircraft more heavily because compressing air with an AQI over 1,000 (like India has experienced recently) could have very unknown consequences elsewhere in the engine after the blades, (unless it just pushes all the pollution particulates back into the cabin, which is another issue that needs to be solved)

> Unlike carmakers, the airlines lack viable technological alternatives. Biofuels have potential but fully electric large commercial aircraft are probably decades away.

Huh? Sure they have alternatives: Fuel cells, or non-polluting combustible pairs of compounds, e.g. Hydrogen + Oxygen (or even Hydrogen + Air?) . Also, I'm no physicist, but I'm pretty sure it's more efficient to convert to kinetic energy (almost) directly rather than through electricity - meaning that electric engines don't make much sense.

Correct me if I'm wrong!

Also, even with current technology - passenger aircraft engine turbines are quite far from their maximum potential efficiency; see @baq's comment.

Given https://github.com/jupyter/docker-stacks Docker might be appropriate. No matter which route you decide to take: make it easy. If you are using pipenv or poetry do so while offering a Makefile or documentation on what commands to run.

If you've updated the post to make it more relevant, better, include more recent info... then it certainly makes sense to inform the visitors about it. Either just change the published date to the date you updated it or list the "last updated" date somewhere on the post too.

I know some sites abuse this because of the way that the Google algorithm works, but it is a good practice to list the date you last updated the post so your visitors can see.

For specific topics, I prefer to read more recent info so if I end up on a page that lists "2015" as published date but doesn't tell me that it has been updated since, I may not trust that page as much simply because of the idea I may have that the info may be outdated.
6 Essential Things You Need to Know Before Entering the Next Bitcoin Bull Market
I can’t imagine what it’s like to moderate large sites like HN. I read it with Show Dead turned on and I’m amazed at how many people have been shadow banned with no clue they’ve been posting frequently for years with no idea 99% of people will never see what they wrote.

In most cases it looks like dang does give them a reason when they’re banned but I don’t think many of them read it.
Moderator of a large sub here. I hate removing content that violates our rules because of the pitch forks coming out. But it's like baseball and you're the ump. These are the rules, you broke the posted rules (and it's not wishy washy rules like /r/politics or /r/videos), and here's the rule you broke. Most of the time you don't have to eject anyone, but sometimes you do.

No, they are more selective about taking on contingency cases. Every losing contingency case is hours of unpaid work.
