Totally makes sense for both sides really.

VCs look at this and are like "We can't do that with run-off-the-mill webdevs and marketers". And they have a formula to express what to expect from this reasonable effort model.

Comes a founder with awesome experience in pedagogy, a reputation in, say, Montessori teaching, and publishing records. She knows 10 musicians who could potentially teach, 100 potential students to bootstrap the idea.

VCs re-reun the numbers with these new assumption and discover a potentially ten times higher return after Q1.

VCs and bootstrapers and founders make different assumptions in efforts and time and need each other, fit different niches.
I got that email and cancelled my nitro subscription because of it, but I didn't know the actual store shut down until months later.

That's interesting, how do you pick which one you want to use?
Very true. It is the same with Basic.
Strength of SEO is irrelevant to the ads.

It wouldn't be very surprising if Google varies the number of ads in a search results page based on the search term. For sites that have strong SEO for all of their key search terms that would be indistinguishable from Google placing more ads in pages where that site ranks highly.
imo the best way to get started is html + js. And then write the backend in a backend language, flask is pretty good for beginners.

Completely separate the concerns. PHP gets people all mixed up. Backend is for data and frontend is for display.

And also, for most needs you don’t even need a backend. If your need is trivial, just get a lambda.
I don't think there is any moral conflict in believing that the government shouldn't regulate speech while also not helping people whose speech you disagree with. "Let me help you hand out copies of your newsletter" does not follow from "I don't think you should go to prison for writing that newsletter".
looks doable with C++ using :

I usually add bangs in the end of the string, since it makes editing and removing them easier if needed.
No one denies that. But this is another entry burden removed. Routing Systems are important and key to any framework. But explain the concept in the first day of a fresh Web Dev (w/o loosing him).
Code often sucks, but a rewrite from scratch doesn't change anything. The rewritten code will suck just as much, but now you just lost a lot of time and have new bugs.
It is common in VFX these days to have scenes that take well over 128Gb of RAM to render, 20Gb is, unfortunately, still quite thin :)
That would mean you can't type words like "quick" or "we", right? Or are you somehow detecting the keys simultaneously down and typing in staccato?

SEA is too expensive. Word-to-mouth needs more critical mass. Website is not sexy enough to get press and backlinks. Blackhat SEO is out of question.

My only hope is to rebrand the website as a carbon comparison engine, which will make it easier to sell it to the mainstream media. Surfing trends is often the best solution.

Not much is different now except I don't use NOTIFY anymore due to the 8000 byte payload limitation (and the reason why I made the elixir server)
If you replace NodeJS with Django and Redis with Postgres it pretty much maps 1:1 with how I deal with it.

Once/if postgres becomes a bottleneck I simply add redis to cache, the next step is doing some stuff asynch with RabbitMQ + Celery and you can scale really really really far...
Similar for me: If I want to look up a doctors phone number or the location/opening hours of a shop I still fall back to Google.

Skincell Pro
Moles are developments that show up apparently at irregular on the skin. These are generally dark colored or dark in shading, and are commonly innocuous. Moles can show up anyplace on the skin, in some cases in gatherings, once in a while alone. Moles normally show up during early adolescence, or inside the initial 25 years of an individual's life. As indicated by WebMD, it is typical for a completely developed grown-up to have 10-40 moles on their body. Moles will in general change after some time, regularly moving in shading, raising, and even out and out vanishing at times.

This call itself does not seem remotely damning. I don't see how there could be a 'whistle blower' for this specific event.

There was a couple of references to 'Giuliani' who was acting in Trump's personal interest, and so there's more to the story there as we now know - but I don't see how this call itself would generate the scrutiny we've seen.

I'd be interested in knowing how this call unfolded into an investigation.

A wall of text intended as smart content marketing to get some awareness for a rather unknown investment firm or incubator--Crunchbase didn't show any raised funds, so I don't call them VC. The long, over-polite text, the fake landing, the ad test weren't required in the first place.

Why:

The immediate answer every experienced VC would give is a simple 'no, this isn't a VC case' without all this fuzz and waste of time.

This market is useless for VCs because it's prone to disintermediation. Once people form a long-term business relationship, it's easy and reasonable to kick-out the middlemen (eg Homejoy). Marketplaces without long-term relationships don't face this problem (eg Airbnb, Uber).

Disintermediation is a hard problem nobody solved. 101 of investing.

Edit: Just saw another user posted the same. What is interesting, PSL didn't answer to that user's thread which could be interpreted as approval. So, PSL's post shows well that most investors are not per se smarter because they invest money. They're just humans like all of us trying to get free reach for a day with 'random' blog posts.
They were rare even in their day. I was visiting lots of customer sites at the time and I only ever came across one, at a bank in London.

I didn't know this, thank you.
I work with large knowledge bases daily and the choke points just aren't in the tools - it's the humans. People generally suck at writing - they often have very incomplete/skewed information, write only from their own perspective and are not that heavily invested in having great knowledge base (as opposed to solving their own immediate problem).

True domain experts who understand things typically don't have the time (and/or skill) to write good documents.

Documents don't get updated or in better case there's a series of "patch" documents describing the changes but not the complete future state.

I don't see how these major issues can be fixed by technology.

This could be largely mitigated by organizational changes - hiring dedicated technical writers / "knowledge managers", but that's just a cost center for companies so it essentially never happens.
My experience with GoLand is that it manages to add back the right imports (notably with things like errors vs github.com/pkg/errors vs github.com/cockroachdb/errors, where they all share a package name and ~interface) but that might just be me getting lucky or not noticing changes.

PMI: Please Get Out of Scrum – Serious Scrum
Your opinions of Go are quite clear, given every time there is a thread on HN about Go your relish telling everyone how backwards a language it is. Yet weirdly you’re not the only competent engineer out there.

I’ve been programming for 30+ years and used many of the languages you’ve described. In fact I’ve written code professionally in well over a dozen different languages (I stopped counting somewhere in the last decade). Yet I still find myself productive in Go. It’s not just the compiler speed either. You talk as if people are idiots or are delusional when actually Go is quite a nice language for a great many people with real world problems to solve.

I’m sure I’ll get downvoted for saying this but there is so much snobbery and elitism in these kinds of threads and it’s absurd. Live and let live guys.
What the fuck.. Mozilla is really hell bent in this war on their own users aren't they?

There were also claims of android keyboardd being used to log messages on Signal (and maybe Telegram), by Naomi Wu and others. No proof for this though.
It’s a real issue. Consider (as you say) the Rust compiler. It has an IR phase called MIR, which is a tree, and elements in the tree need to know how to find themselves in the parent. For example, a function has a set of basic blocks, and each BB needs to know about its function. This is a very typical IR; LLVM is the same.

Backreferences are hard in Rust, so a BB instead maintains its index into a Vec<BB>, owned by the function. But this index is just a number: ownership is not modeled, it is not statically checked, and it may fall out of sync. It is effectively a slow, weird (though sandboxed) raw pointer.

You can write this stuff in Rust, but it is awkward and Rust cannot bring its strengths to bear. Rust assumes a tree-like ownership model and if you fall off that path, it can’t help much. Graphs aren’t trees so Rust is less helpful here.

Gargabe collection is a much bigger crutch. Once you use it your entire program is contaminated by the performance characteristics of a single improperly written function. You cannot mix real time code with non real time code. If you do your real time code will be delayed by the non real time code. The unpredictability of the GC has become a property of your entire application.
You can skip that and take another one without waiting for 20m?

I suspect they do that because every update to your software/interface then renders your example screenshots outdated. For a startup at least and in my experience, that's a painful distraction when you want to just focus on building and getting people to your site. But I also go looking for screenshots and appreciate sites that provide them up front.

I don't really see how the package management in Go is better than in Java? In fact, it seems a bit inferior on some aspects, though mostly similar sounding overall.

Can someone more familiar with both explain?

I have to admit, the Go compiler is what I'm jealous of. No dependencies, not even GLIBC and cross compilation seems a breeze. SubstrateVM has a lot to catch up too there.

No need for an extension, you can still set bookmarks that search with keywords.

It just won’t automatically create the URL pattern the site suggests.
Unless I misunderstood, that is something you disable in each (google)app that has that "feature".

In Gmail for instance: settings: General settings:

Open links in gmail.
Turn on for "faster" browsing.

Default is on. Tip: Use firefox focus instead as the default browser to open all links. If the link warrants further look copy the url to your main browser.

The above has nothing to do with amp.

But to not detract, amp truly is a plague.
Regulations. Apparently most of the accidents on them are caused by the human driver getting scared and taking over.
You can manually create custom searches as regular bookmarks with a keyword so they should sync.

Getting somewhere faster doesn't necessarily mean it's better.

Recently I lost my car (I used to have a company car in front of my door, but switched jobs), now I am solely using public transport and my bicycle. It takes more time, doesn't really cost me anything more than having a car and because it takes more time I have more space to clear my mind. To let my mind wander for a while to process thoughts.

I'm talking about distances that typically take 5 - 20 minutes by car, that are now maybe 15 - 40 minutes by public transport.

To many people's surprise, I can crank out a fully-functional side project in two to five days (latest ones were https://imgz.org and https://nobsgames.stavros.io) by having already completely automated devops.

Yeah, an autonomous, dynamically routed minibus that might significantly extend the reach and lower the cost of public transport. Not good enough for you?
Mind over matter guys, "Screw it, lets do it." is the best advice: just start, anywhere. I've struggled with this my entire life and nowadays I just start writing (code or documents). It feels like getting out of bed after a night with a crying baby, but you know, have a coffee, stare into the bright daylight of a new day and that moment of actually deciding to push away the sheets is long forgotten.

Edit: I have two brothers, one with ADD one with issues with Alcohol. All three of us have issues starting and finishing things that are import for an orderly life. The one with the alcohol problem is (or was perhaps, he's ding pretty good now) really prone to feeling like a victim and just dropping everything when things don't go smoothly. The main difference between me and my brothers is my ability to kick my own ass into action. Other than that I recognize many aspects of their character in mine. Maybe the thought of the troubles they have had helps me.

Still, the most fun things always go first, but hey, I've earned that little pleasure, right? ;)
If the language works without GC, you can implement optional GC for it. Even Rust had something like that in the early days (though it was dropped). But languages where GC is expected by design, don't allow you to disable it (like Java).
Tesla managed to create a chip, which is 10x cheaper than a GPU for training

Really? Where can I buy that chip?
Germany isn't Germany any more. It is a component of the Eurozone - which is a unified currency area - like the USA, or the UK.

What Germany does is 'vendor finance' other parts of the Eurozone. The Greek government buys German battleships and the savings the Germans are famous for buy the paper the Greek government issues to close the circle. Then they blame Greece for going into debt once the ponzi scheme reaches its limit.

You get the same effect with London to the wider South East of England, arguably England to Scotland and no doubt several areas in the USA where outside of the area, but within the currency zone, is encouraged to borrow to buy the output of the area.

China's mercantile currency lock does much the same thing.

The eternal problem is that exporting is giving away the output of your people in return for a shiny bauble. If you don't then exchange that shiny bauble for the output of some other people, what was the point of doing all that work in the first place?

You may as well have used your productivity to have Friday off instead and gone fishing.

Sorry for the off-topic, but this is something that blew my mind while traveling around the USA.

I could count with my fingers the amount of crazy people I saw in my life while in public transport or on the streets in general. The same while traveling around Europe.

But in the USA, it was incredible to see the amount of crazy people going around, talking alone, yelling out of nowhere, or "having episodes" (e.g. one guy rubbing a plastic fork intensely on the top of his head for like 15 mins while staring into space).

I wonder what would be the reason for that? (Maybe the lack of a public/universal health service?)
Legislating natural monopolies way after they were obvious has been a problem for more than a hundred years. It is probably a case where the free market leads to a problematic situation and hence it is hard to discuss for ideological reasons.
