> what incentive do they have to allow all these fake reviews?

People buy the tat from Amazon instead of buying a name brand from a competitor.
Third world workers don’t have to work for first world manufacturers like Apple, they can keep doing the jobs they already have.

The reason they don’t is their existing jobs are far worse, typically far more difficult and dangerous farm jobs.That’s why when Foxconn used to post new iPhone assembly jobs, Chinese would line up by thousands because an Apple assembly job is a ticket out of poverty.

So if first world manufacturers left, your reducing third world workers choices back to the lower paying, much worse work they had before.
Unfortunately Amazon's UI is actually pretty hostile to this, too.

I was trying to buy simple USB cables... After a pair of tablets were destroyed by a bad USB cable, I'm picky about usb micro cables. So I tried to search on Amazon for usb a to micro cables...

And the brand filter didn't list many of the brands I was seeing in the resultset. Like, I know you have Monoprice and Belkin cables, I'm looking right at them! Why can I only filter to Chinese no-name brands and Amazonbasics?
> We don't do politics here, but this sounds very much like Capitalism vs Communism, just in the sense of "Greed Motivation" vs "Community Motivation"

Generally curious, do we just basically ignore what happened in the Soviet Union, Cambodia, Vietnam, and China when we discuss the “community motivations” of communism and how that plays out?

I was looking at webcams and the Amazon recommended one is 1000+ five star reviews some of which say that you only get a lifetime warranty if you leave a five star review
Not currently. Seems like a lot of work, especially with all the margin notes and figures. But if you could suggest tools that might make this easier, I'd give them a look.

Not the best review of Richard Greene's biography (I have a Google news alert on “Graham Greene” so I've read them all) in that it tends more to summary than evaluation, but it’s not the worst either, perhaps for the same reason. I have the bio on pre-order (it’s been out in the UK for a few months but the American edition, with a different title, The Unquiet Englishman: A Life of Graham Greene, doesn't come out until 12 January). I found Boyd's comments on The Heart of the Matter especially interesting as this is the novel by Greene that’s by far the most incomprehensible to non-Catholics.
Will it really turn people off the platform though? I’m part of the very small minority who hates Amazon right now simply because of how easy it is for shops to game the review system. But I am more than willing to bet most consumers are ever so happy to see prices on products continue to drop in exchange for any brand recognizability or quality.
yea that was an intentional typo :)
Nice work. I ran a quick search in my area and it worked well with one significant challenge. In this market, residences usually sell for 15-20% higher than the listed price.
Unless I'm reading this wrong: is this a search engine that indexes everything Google doesn't?
I can see this being valuable for closed groups that define their own objectives i.e. a SubReddit-esque set-up where one can search for information on a theme say finance. The quality of results on the meta level risks to be lower.
On second thought, the idea of Google now indexing my personal info because I hooked onto the graph? Not sure how comfortable I am with that. Intriguing if Google does not index it.
Cool idea though, good luck with it!
Yeah, that. My son has an MPow fightstick and it's a solid product. MPow is doing a good job establishing themselves as a reputable new brand for electronics.
> For an increasing amount of product categories, you're going to find 10+ "brands" on Amazon that are selling the same white-label garbage class product, just with a different sticker and box/ad art.

But you could still build up a brand the old-fashioned way, by buying advertising (including forms that can't be targeted, like billboards) to create broad name recognition. It's hard to do and it takes lots of capital, but that's the same as it has always been.

And then any white-label product you sell is a reflection of the brand you've built up, so it's in your interest to only sell high-quality stuff.
I found their NES version[0] just the other day, tried it with a friend, and there was a consistent 0.5-1s delay with button inputs. We both tried hosting, but had same issue and couldn't play. I have to imagine that PS1 emulation would be worse?

But as far as UX, it was incredibly easy get us both into a 2 player game, complete with chat, voice, and video feeds. Their buttons are mapped to keyboard inputs, so Windows users can get a gamepad working with a program like JoyToKey[1].

> From the very beginning of the epidemic it has been clear a person with serious case of corona would go to an ICU and put on a ventilator for the best treatment.

At the beginning of the pandemic, people thought this. As I understand it, it is actually preferable to keep patients off of ventilators as much as possible.

It is certainly not the case that, if you show up at a hospital and the hospital has unlimited resources, then you should be put on a ventilator because it’s somehow good for you.

What you’re describing is exactly how brands work. The garbage brands will continue to cycle because there’s no reason to keep the brand name (in fact it’s better to change it so that people who got burned don’t know it’s the same). But the good brands are investing in the brand name and so they will stick around and you’ll start to recognize them.

Look at a company like Anker. They operate in spaces filled with garbage but they have managed to become trustworthy.
Nice job! Early in the pandemic me and some buds spent a few nights on voice chat and snes.party, it helped us reconnect and reduce our isolation.

Well typically there isn't such a large gap in vaccine performance.

62% is about as bad as vaccines get, and in any other circumstance the manufacturer would retrial instead of seek approval. Even the WHO recommends a 70% minimum during pandemic times (with 50%+ being a measure of last resort, which I guess we're at now).

On the other hand, 95% is better than the best of the best.

Scary things, as if the other known long term damages from Covid-19 were not enough. In any case, the vaccination should be magnitudes less risky than catching Covid-19. And as things are, there is a likelyhood that basically everyone would get infected at some time, if we don't put a hard stop to this.

I'm sure that would make provocative sci-fi. We, as a people, haven't figured out to how to get along with each other even though we're all sentient. Why should machines behave differently as they become sentient?

Whatever the case, I'm less worried about machines than I am about people with machines. At least for the foreseeable future.

Heck, if we're talking sci-fi, the _truly_ destructive beings in Blade Runner weren't the synthetic humans (even though they became sentient), it was the "real" humans with their organizations, their power, and their machines all at their disposal.

The backlight is going to be a box supplied directly from AC, connecting up to 6 strips of individually addressable WS2812 RGB LEDs, providing up to 10A at 5V (50mA per LED == 200 LEDs at full power). It will be connected using galvanically isolated Full-Speed USB to the PC.

For now I will have some pre-programmed sequences but I plan to make a piece of software that will make it possible to match LEDs to the borders of image on the screen though I have no idea how to do that at the moment.

> I feel like it would be markets correction.

Universities and higher learning isn’t and shouldn’t be a market. I’d argue that one of the reasons for the sad state of academia today is that too many MBA are running everything, including those things that aren’t businesses and shouldn’t be run like such. If researchers didn’t need to always chase after the next grant, a lot of the shortsightedness and lock in into specialities wouldn’t even be a problem in the first place.

It says something about how thorough neoliberalism won that few people react today when, again, it is taken for granted that everything is a market and what the market decides is right.
> who says they do decide what’s scientific research and debate?

Because that is how academia works. And they're all academics.
Some of us are though. Maybe we shouldn't set our policy based upon what the bottom x% of the population consider important?
I think it was Shannon, or Knuth, or someone of that stature in a lecture, where he said the following (paraphrased from memory, I'm sorry for butchering this whole quote, I hope the idea gets across):

At Bell Labs, I figured out that the best researchers worked 9 hours instead of 8. I wondered why that was and realized that the final 9th hour compounds over time. In the beginning, you won't produce more research output, but 10 years from now, you will.
At least on Amazon they already have editorial control of every review, in that there is a approval process for them to be posted.

Yeah, there's no weight to this.

Midway started in the 60s. They weren't competing with Japanese companies back then. American arcades were filled with American pinball machines, Computer Space or Pong. Japanese games like Space Invaders and Pac Man wouldn't take off until the late 70s.

In addition to the airport being a source for the name, in the 40s, the Chicago Bears were nicknamed "Monsters of the Midway" and there is also a park known as "the Midway" in Chicago.

It's almost always the negative reviews which convinces me to buy a product. The positive reviews rarely have much information.

The negative reviews far more often will tell me where the weaknesses and problems are so I can determine if they are things that matter to me.
Using such a term when your direct competitors are Japanese will evoke some mental imagery. Very, very tasteless in my humble opinion.

I don't know what to tell you except I have experience actually doing this. A full house needs a roof and foundation, which I neglected in my original estimate. I don't have time to work out an estimate on an entire roof and divide it to assign partial cost to the kitchen, but I doubt the roof and foundation together are going to add any more than anther $6000 for the kitchen alone. The overarching point is that we're still a long way from $60,000 for a kitchen.

Which science as an institution is supposed to help protect us against, yes.

There is also an emulator layer. It's used as a fallback when the much faster ahead-of-time binary translator can't work. The emulator is generally not a good experience -- if you have to use it, you really want to go native asap.

Examples where it is required is any kind of self-modifying code, such as JITs and the like. Since IDEA is a java application that ships with it's own JRE, the aot translator can only translate the JRE parts and when the execution first jumps to freshly written memory the system bails to the emulator. Since the emulator is an order of magnitude (probably more...) slower than native, and the entire IDE runs on JIT, this is very bad.
The US monitor a lot of the tiny chunks flying around and predicts where they go. Worst case the satellite has to flight an evasive maneuver. Usually it's a false alarm, but we can't measure well enough to make perfect predictions.

In openstreetmap, tracks should get additional tags such as tracktype, surface, smoothness.

If such tags are present and seem to be reliable, then OSM can be used to plan trips. Otherwise it is just too risky to rely on OSM. In particular in harsh climates and if there is no way to get help.

I.e., before using OSM, assess the quality of the mapping done by the local community. Anyone can draw lines of a map by looking at satelite images. It doesn't mean that such lines are passable.
