Hang on, it’s been a long time since I studied physics at uni in the mid 80s, but isn’t the Schwarzchild radius just the boundary which marks the point within which even light cannot escape gravity? A black hole is a singularity, a point (if non-rotating) of infinite density. I didn’t think the mass of the back hole was evenly distributed within the Schwarzchild boundary (which is a mathematical boundary, not a physical boundary such as the surface of a body). Or have I missed something?

Before I say this, I have to say: I am not making fun of you or insulting you at all.

However, your question is like asking "How do I make a horse that is actually a car?"

The two things are just completely different. Static websites, by definition, don't have databases and constantly changing information.

So, it sounds like you want to learn some web development. I recommend trying The Rails Tutorial.[1] It teaches your everything you need to know to start making web applications and doesn't assume you have lots of previous experience.

Good luck! And when you make something cool come back and post a "Show HN".

Can you say that about your Twitter handle? Do you have a legal right to keep using that Twitter account, and if Twitter tries to give the account to someone else, can you get an injunction preventing them from doing so? (Now, same question but for your FB, Instagram, email, domain name, etc etc.)

What is the utilization of Resultz Boost?
Individuals carry on with a way of life where their body doesn't get appropriate sustenance and it hurts the general build of the body. One of the serious issues it causes is in the solid quality of the body. Guys and females both experience the ill effects of a misfortune in muscle quality and the solid development of the body likewise gets drained. It additionally brings down the energy and endurance levels of the body and causes a ton of weariness even in a lesser measure of work. It brings about the quicker maturing of the body and individuals are attempting to get a solution for this issue. It should be tended to and the two guys and females need such a fix that can assist with boosting up the general strength of the body.

> have no interest/ability for social posturing

I'm not sure why your reaction to this advice is that it's posturing.

In any work environment, whether in person or remote, you're going to benefit from building relationships with the people you work with. This happens more naturally in person because conversations start 'automatically' e.g. around the watercooler, and the content that fills those conversations is the exchange of information and opinions that builds relationships.

The challenge with remote is that there is no automatic way for those conversations to start. Instead you have to consciously plan them, but the content of the conversation should be as natural as it would be otherwise.

There is some cynicism in that you'll benefit from actively building a relationship with the seniors and maybe you put more work in to that than would come naturally but that is again exactly as true in person as remotely.
Beyonce filled a stadium with capacity for 100k people a couple of years ago.

Same with a lawn. Certain plants like clover have advantages like not requiring much nitrogen. Many grasses are very fussy and need good soil to thrive. But the grass finds its advantage in that it can grow taller than clover and therefore block out the sun. As the grass blade gets longer it is able to collect more sun (surface area grows) and establish deeper roots and block out the clover even better.

Many people use a variety of chemicals to hold weeds at bay. But a well watered lawn that is regularly fortified with organic nitrogen and kept at a decent length will more or less prevent most weeds from establishing. Many people cut their lawn way too short, removing the grasses advantage.

Its weird that people always link the "low skilled" worker to India and the highly skilled one is always someone from US or EU. Lets keep in mind that some of the most skilled engineers in the tech industry are also Indians and it might just be that the one comitting code to the Linux kernel ks also a skilled graduate from one of the top institutes in India and doesnt get a visa because of the H1B rules. Just because you're European or not Indian doesnt mean this system will benefit you.

When I was a Sophomore in college (1978) me and some buddies got tickets to see Black Sabbath with Van Halen opening. We were driving up the freeway to go see the show and had 4 of us in our buddy's Mom's Datsun Station wagon he borrowed from her. We were smoking weed to get ready for the concert and had the windows rolled down part way to try to keep from reeking out the car. An ember flew into the back of the wagon and we didn't notice it but the car just kept getting more and more smoky so we kept rolling the windows down more and more which just fanned the flames. The next thing you know the car was in flames in the back. We pulled over and stood by the side of the freeway and watched our buddy's Mom's car burn up.

The cops and fire department came and put it out eventually. The Cop asked us where we were going and if we needed a ride or to call someone. We told him we were going to see Black Sabbath and Van Halen and he said oh wow, you can't miss that I will drive you there. Our buddy said OK he could call his Mom when we got there and arrange rides for after the show.

When we got there our high was blown so we toked out more. When I got in there and the show started, I will never forget Eddie sliding out on the stage on his knees hammering out Eruption. I don't know if it was the weed or the music or both but I swear I had an out of body experience. I had never heard it like that, live was just a whole 'nother level.

Good grief that is bonkers. I wonder if it was justified like - if you prepare for penalties the players will aim for that instead of trying to win in 90 minutes or in Extra Time. Like an old antiquated training strategy I read about where a team would train without a ball, so that they’d be more hungry for it during the game.

I cannot imagine what it feels like to be an England fan. With Scotland it’d be an achievement if we even reached a major finals, and we’re kinda prepared for disappointment in every game. But England are a genuinely good team who are capable of winning the Euros or the World Cup if they don’t bottle it.

"Cooperation enables greater efficiency. You don't burn resources in efforts that exist just to harm your competitor. You get all of the economies of scale of sharing information, expertise, and technology."

Exactly if you consume or spoil all the resources you get Tragedy of the commons [1] "The tragedy of the commons is a situation in a shared-resource system where individual users, acting independently according to their own self-interest, behave contrary to the common good of all users by depleting or spoiling the shared resource through their collective action."

Powerful analogy, but analogies are dangerous. They can obscure what's really happening.

In this case, by analogy, Ferrari made the comparison to the super cheap SUV from 2003. That is, OpenAI compared GPT3 to BERT on the SuperGLUE benchmark, in the paper announcing GPT3 [1].

They did so to demonstrate GPT3's ability to learn a new task given only a few examples of the task ("few-shot learning"). The limited amount of task-specific training data was a signficant handicap that GPT3 was able to overcome, like a Ferrari towing a two ton trailer outperforming an old SUV towing nothing.

What this paper claims is that encoder type models can also achieve few-shot learning. The headline should be "AI training method achieves few-shot learning with 99.9% fewer parameters than GPT3." That's the innovation here, not outperforming GPT3 on a benchmark that GPT3 isn't particularly good at.

According to ground realities. In a well functioning representative democracy, voters will kick out politicians/administrations that don’t represent their interests well.

So if you want to be the one politician that values non-citizens’ rights over citizens’ rights, good luck getting re-elected.

That’s not what it’s about.

In a meritocracy, a person should become powerful/rich according to their merit—education, skill, diligence, etc. However, what then happens is elites start religiously investing all they can (and they can invest a lot) into ensuring their own offspring has even more of that merit than others.

As an exaggerated example, you can’t buy your kid a Pfeiffer turbopump to experiment with if you are choosing between bread and soap when you’re going to the store.

What we get as a result is the same ever-growing gap between the already-rich and the rest. Meritocracy turns into plutocracy as merit becomes more or less a proxy for wealth.

Breaking that trend would involve actions that go beyond meritocracy, and arguably are un-meritocratic: instead of just rewarding by merit, it’s about helping more people have that merit regardless of their or their parents’ wealth.

One thing is a lot of Indians got GC's in EB-1 in the last decade(2000-2020). There were some Indian IT outsourcing firms that promoted people to higher roles for EB-1 GC purposes and then demoted them after they got GCs. Thousands of people got it(thanks to mind boggling levels of office politics), now the EB-1 queue is flooded due to his abuse(fraud?). EB-1 used to be current, now the wait is again in a few years(<10).

Part of the problem here seems to be at least to some extent everyone(us Indians) flooding these queue's while native population keeping these quotas fixed(to control they don't change their society too much).

One also needs to realize there will always be limits to these things. Now given every one wants to come to US, they can't accommodate everyone. There will be limits. Limits to number of H1B's, limit to yearly GCs. What should the limit be? 6K, 60K, 600K? How much?

Imagine India doing this. We recently passed laws to restrict immigration. For some reasons we expect to shut doors to everyone, while simultaneously expecting the whole world roll out red carpets for us.
