I created a few years ago a blog that lived in the issues of the blog's repo [1].

Cool concept, although the content itself does not live in the git repo.

No, the kernel is a mixing of gradients from the training. The proof depends completely on the particular form of optimization, in this case gradient descent in the limit of infinitesimal "timestepping", and suggests that gradient descent optimization doesn't cleverly pick good internal representations of the data.
https://www.userfrosting.com/ is a good open source solution in this space actually.
The most addictive games are not the ones we think about. My friends are into "competitive" gaming, games like CSGO, Dota2. These developers barely bring any content to their games and it amazes me how much profit they make for less work compared to AAA studios releasing blockbusters like RDR2. If your game is not competitive, microtransaction-ready, not a sandbox with procedural, generative stuff, the chances are that the work involved in that is sisyphic. (huge respect for Naughty Dog, Rockstar Games - they found their micro-trans niche through GTA Online though -, CDProjekt, Arkane)
I agree with the OP, but journalists have a different priority from other writers of prose. Information accuracy is of paramount importance, with deviance from the original being important to highlight. The other thing they do, is use an ellipsis (…) to indicate excised text.

Another issue is that they are obliged to help their audience understand a topic, so paraphrasing, contextualizing, and clarifying are important.

Personally, I think that a quote should, indeed, be posted “whole,” but, if that is not done, then brackets (or something like it) should be used.

If it is posted “whole,” then it generally needs to have context established for the quote.

I prefer “whole,” myself, with context, but I am also rather...prolix. Journalists tend to put a premium on being concise. They usually have a word limit on articles.

It’s certainly not something I’m losing any sleep over. My mother was a scientific editor, and her bugaboo was dangling participles. That kind of thing can cause problems in scientific writing, but, in some cases, might make prose easier to read. I tend to "bend" the rules of "proper English," myself. It can be fun, watching pedant heads explode.

There was another link someone around here posted, where the author was complaining about how major news organizations were not posting their corrections in a visible manner.
> So your claim that 15% of their queries have "never been seen before" is probably inaccurate.

I'm not sure, on my productive days maybe >50% of my Google searches are not very cachable. (for example, I just googled "htop namespace", "htop novel bytes", "htop pss", "htop nightly build ubuntu 14.04")

I have that exact model, collecting dust, and now I'm really tempted to go modding it.

Maybe I could create a useful and subtle e-ink "dashboard" somewhere around the house?

I mean, this looks totally doable.
That's a very low bar to clear, and there's a lot of glitches that ruin the gameplay without requiring reloading or preventing mission completion.
As someone with a poor working memory for numbers I'd object to this test greatly. Just because I'm bad at math doesn't mean I'm bad at programming.

It can matter. It's possible for servers to be in country where to where you cannot export GDPR data to.
Sometimes when they offer the option of the cover letter there is an implicit acknowledgment that you will submit one. I know hiring managers who appreciate cover letters, so those who don't submit one are in a worse position.
The main issue with this is that a Kindle is not a typical Linux environment; they use heavily patched kernels that range from old to hideously old depending on the age of the device, have a severely stripped down userspace similar to most other embedded devices and it's a pain to set up the development tools needed to compile software against the various libc/kernel versions used across the Kindle family.
RG has more than that. The one where they made an ice rink in the dorms actually happened. The water slide one was also done in Page House when I was there.

Caltech refused to allow them to film on campus, fearing it might put the university in a bad light. So the film makers found some other buildings with the same architecture as used at Caltech, and they hired techers as extras to wander around in the background (saying they were unable to duplicate the look of a techer, so the easy solution was just hire them).

Ask HN: How do you filter the content you consume?
The amount of content created every day is so vast that it is hard to keep up with many sources. However, a lot of the content created is awful, and exploration can be a big waste of time.

I've stayed with Hacker news because a lot of the content is of high quality, which appeals to me. However, I use hckrnews.com/ as an interface since I prefer seeing submissions in temporal order with the score clearly visible.

Regarding other content aggregator options:
- I stopped looking up content on Facebook because of doomscrolling and, generally, bad content.
- Twitter is all right, but the content is usually not deep.
- I generally think it's a waste of time to visit news sites since important news will become visible to me through aggregators, peers, et cetera.
- To find new research papers, I use Arxiv, recommendations from peers, and I participate in peer-reviews. Still, it can be time-consuming to explore too much.

Ideally, I want to dedicate some amount of time to explore. However, I also want a way to prioritize the content I'm receiving. Big bonus if the recommendations are interpretable.

You can think of it as a priority queue where my personal priorities are learned. Time should have some influence since, at some point, old news is not interesting anymore.

Is anyone building a product like this? Essentially, a smart filter where the user controls the input into the filter (it can be anything consumable, really). Furthermore, the user should be able to give some feedback on whether he is happy with the recommendations.

Is there any hope that we will ever build something like that which provides good recommendations while also having the right balance between exploration and exploitation?

What is your strategy today? Are you aware of its pros and cons?
If they released a $50 DLC that just adds a bunch of super difficult achievements I'd pick that up just to support them. I've sunk 4 figures of hours into that game and I regret not having any of my goals left to achieve. I've done speedrunning, mega factories, difficult map settings, etc.
I don't understand these kind of posts that 10 years back was frontend development easier. What is stopping people to use HTML, CSS, vanilla JS, or with jQuery these days? Nobody is forcing us to use React, TS on every project we do. Feel free to use jQuery if you think its the best tool for your project. All these technologies are just tools and you decide what tool you choose to get work done ;).
How will this make the world better? I ask in earnest, as for the most part I see ML only as a tool to increase profits. Is this making the world a better place or just increasing shareholder value?
I'll take your "Karen" reference as a crude attempt to insult OP. Let me recycle your "argument": You think Google should hire "300k+" SWEs (in reality according to their public filings it's more like a 5th of that at best) to build and maintain millions of servers in a system that indexes billions of pieces of information on the open internet just so in a fraction of a second you can find a tired meme (and definitely NOT to find the actual number of SWEs Google has) to use in an inaccurate answer to a legitimate question, albeit irrelevant to the posted topic? But here they are doing it.

Alphabet is a trillion dollar company. The reason they're not fixing their customer support issues is that nobody is making them. They're not losing customers and they can just save the money. This doesn't make it OK or excusable. Certainly not with the "arguments" you brought.
That's not at all what was being said. The question of what causes homosexuality or heterosexuality is an interesting scientific question. Even if it were purely by choice, that doesn't reflect on any other characteristic of a person, and any fear that homophobes might try to use some hypothesis or another for their propaganda doesn't matter because they don't care about science anyway.
This seems like such a needlessly negative take in vein of the "our music was better and now everything is comercialized!!!" syndrome.

We live in pretty much the golden age of gaming - the audience has never been bigger, the choice was never greater and there is no lack of evocative, emotional and masterfully crafted games.

But just like with every other medium, there's also no lack of cheap cash grabs. You movie cinema is also plastered with cheap romantic comedy dreck and not the greatest works of the year. That doesn't mean that there's nothing there though.
The opposing party said nothing about remaining if they were going to be voted in. One of the key issues was never discussed by Corbyn.

This made me wonder:

Is there a parallel between the advertising industry and their ever increasing quest to mine more data and the games industry with their incessant need for DLC, microtransactions and whatnot?

It seems that middle-management/VC's in both of these industries are pushing the same processes (or could we use "dogma"?) without any empirical evidence that what they are doing is the right thing, all the while patting each other on the back because that's the way everyone else does it...

Stainless Steel Business Cards
Stainless steel metal cards have been gaining popularity as of late. Steel is a symbol of reliability, strength, and stability. Have you noticed banks offering metal credit cards for certain clients? American Express, for example. Steel cards are luxurious and only available for a small crowd but there are more reasons why banks offer metal cards as the luxurious option, other than them looking great, of course. Metal cards are unique and they are not reserved to just credit cards.
Amazon’s New CEO Can Either Help Workers and Sellers–Or Automate Them Away
I feel the same fatigue. But on the other hand: looking at the boiler plate to get a web backend running I honestly don't see that much of a difference. Granted my experience is mostly limited to the Java ecosystem (specifically Spring) but just by looking at alternatives like Laravel (PHP) or Elixir (Erlang) or Django (Python) I don't see much difference when it comes to boilerplate.

Developers seem to have this romantic notion that everything used to be so simple but it seems like history is just repeating itself. I'm sure programmers of the 70s and 80s said the same about desktop development in the late 90s.

That being said: It's baffling to me that browser vendors can't agree on advancing the technology on their own. Why do we have to wait for the ECMA and CSS standard to evolve and instead use shims to get where we clearly want to go?
I'm not sure how you found my question, but thank you very much for your answer, Mathieu!

> I can handle the base2 / base10 problem by using context. I don’t need a clumsy new prefix.

I feel numbers ure a much more powerfull abstraction than any particular unit, so when there is friction like this between conventions, I prefer to favor the number. Giga is 10⁹ and Gibi is 2¹⁰⁰ whatever the actual unit behind it.
Saying Hotwire is the latest iteration of Turbolinks is like saying C++ is the latest iteration of C.
I think this is addressed in the following section:

> Sometimes you have to use brackets anyway. Maybe the speaker or writer was using an acronym or a completely unfamiliar piece of jargon that the reader needs explained. Maybe they were referring to a person by their last name or nickname, when the reader has not yet been introduced to the person’s full name. But these changes should be both necessary and obvious.

Not quite explicitly, but it isn't a far leap from "referring to a person by their last name or nickname" to pronouns.
Maybe we will get there someday, but we are not even close to that right now. Hell we are not even in same galaxy.

So right now things the op posted are pretty much standard practice everywhere in most industries. I mostly work in EU, I have worked with construction companis, medical companies, hospitals and telcos, and practice like this is standard.

They will have some ungodly expensive security product that makes them change password ever 14 days, and makes intranet barely usable, but will have holes the size of the mountains in their infrastructure, because of this vendor or that cost savings etc.
The best Reddit user experience by far is via third party apps like Reddit is Fun. I am expecting them to turn of API access for those apps any day now.

I find your lack of faith in jQuery disturbing.
Same with Hades by Supergiant Games. Its an amazing game and the company is proudly kicking people out if they try to stay after hours.

It is possible but you can also squeeze the life out of your replaceable staff and hold them guilt hostage (if you don't work as hard as everyone else then you are making them work harder). If the project has crunch time for the most development time then its not a crunch its the norm.
> Is there really this huge conspiracy by the left, or are most just tired of hate speech from the right when they want to look at funny memes?

[Citation needed]. You don't do your point any favors by being hyperbolic. And as always, the "both sides are both equally bad"-rhetoric is just discussing in bad faith.
tbf people on twitter are fucking insane. there is no middle ground for them, just hate or love. and they always need to have an opinion on everything. its probably the most toxic website i have ever experienced. people on it are treated like the average person when they represent such a massive niche. basically we should purge twitter and other social media sites.
I wasn't familiar with the term sisyphic so I searched it. I got some results for sisypic, which certainly weren't what I expected but proves that the internet is for porn.

If the author had, they would have discovered Hiroshi Ishi's ClearBoard research from the early 90s[0][1].

I was going to say my citation is r/popular itself, but it looks like there's less of it now that the election is over. During the election it was disgusting.

The toxic content is still there though, like a LeopardsAteMyFace post crowing about the death of Ron Wright, and as if to prove my point: "This thread has been locked due to extremely toxic and rude comments." Such as the current top comment "...I'm really past playing nice with even the memory of these fucks...... Rot in hell, Ron."

The discussion was too toxic even for the LeopardsAteMyFace mods, but they didn't delete it. It's still visible, and featured on r/popular. That sub (and the other we-hate-conservatives subs) are often filled with hate speech like that, and yet, unlike r/TheDonald, they haven't been quarantined.

No, at least in Germany the laws depend on the context. You can't use a racial slur to insult someone, but pronouncing it to talk about the word with students would be perfectly allowed (and how else could you explain to them that they shouldn't use a word, if you can't even pronounce it? Wait till they hear it somewhere else and repeat it?).
Well, this is clearly not evidence if you bothered to visit https://www.ar15.com/index.html

Edit: Godaddy is not just a (crappy) registrar. GoDaddy is also a (crappy) hosting provided which I moved an organization out of.

Edit again: I guess I ought to explain domain names to you. Most DNS providers are crappy (unlike Cloudflare), and have a non-negligible TTL. Even if AR15 had access to GoDaddy's account to change their DNS records (A record for the www subdomain and root domain), it takes a while for new records to propagate globally.

More likely, what happened is GoDaddy told AR15 to take their domain to someone else. And thats what they did.
Very interesting read in the README. It's a bit scary, so I'm not sure I'd use this in a real program, but I learned some cool stuff reading the description!
It seems to me that the trend in tech/games/media is about stimulating the reward system, requiring less attention span, and monetize from it. Social media recommendation systems, mobile games, competitive games that finish in half an hour, etc.

Alternative exists, but probably won't make that much money...
I was reading up on cover letters yesterday and saw someone on reddit use the following argument:
You wouldn't send an email to someone with just your resumé and contact details. Usually, you would write something small to introduce yourself. This is what a cover letter is for. Typically, cover letters shouldn't be much longer than half a page and should be included with applications to provide context about who you are.
Tech stacks can be overwhelming, and in saying that this is what I do in 2021 and find it enjoyable: Snowpack + Typescript + ES6. I use regular CSS, just a single file.

If I do something unusual with importing files or some other kind of build process thing, chances are its only a few lines to write a plugin or perhaps a few shell commands from a npm script command (or a simple script written in node) to achieve the end goal.

I also use redom instead of a large framework. But also, the cool thing about TS and other front end stuff is that it's kind of fun to just find your own way. Of course, people like common practices, frameworks, etc. But also, exploring alternatives can reveal a lot about unseen potential.

I hope you find something you enjoy doing, life isn't worth wasting it on stuff you don't want to do.

edit: changed proverbial you to I, as I'm only referring to myself.
>diversity of thought and opinions.

I don't think so, HN has a pretty specific audience. Just like reddit opinions that don't follow groupthink are often downvoted.
For personal projects of course, we can do whatever we want. But I don't make a living with personal projects. I do that by working for a company 8 hours mon-fri, and there I am not in charge of the tech stack used.
> if you search for Git-based CMSes you have NetlifyCMS, and…wait what? Is that all???

There are some more. I know of Grav which I intend to use migrating from NetlifyCMS. It has flat-file storage and Git connectivity. I think it can be installed on my shared hosting provider by just unpacking the thing (I don't have Composer / shell access).

This was my main reason to switch to mainly front-end: to get away from clunky, badly written C# and Java back-end programming. 2/3 of a code file are just the coder wrangling the OOP typesystem instead of just coding the functionality that is needed.

I do like Typescript if you just use it minimally: you can type (I prefer interfaces usually) argument types and rely on the compiler to infer types.

But then the OOP fundamentalists got their hands on it and now they want strict type checking and believe that it makes their code bulletproof https://indepth.dev/posts/1402/bulletproof-angular
Related question: Does anybody know if this sort of zooming behaviour (mapping images onto a grid and dynamically load smaller tiles with higher solutions based on current offset) has a concrete, nameable algorithm behind it? Any link to an Open Source implementation would also be interesting.
Lost his fortune? He is worth 85 billion dollars, mainly through his trading strategy of only investing in things that have good fundamentals. He didn't get rich by investing in purely speculative instruments that don't have any fundamentals.

I completely agree with his assessment. Bitcoin's value depends entirely on new people joining the bitcoin market - the second that stops the bubble pops, you just can't tell when it's going to pop.
