If things go as planned, this may become a paid, ad-free, zero-tracking search engine. I can't express how exciting this is to me.

Over the past few years, I have made several attempts to replace Google Search with DuckDuckGo. But they have all failed and I always ended up changing the default search engine back to Google. I mean, DDG worked fine for 95% of time, but the remaining 5% failure often led to some extreme frustration that I just couldn't stand. I would imagine Brave Search to have similar issues, at least in the beginning, but they did something smart to make it less painful:

> Brave Search beta is based on an independent index, the first of its kind. However, for some queries, Brave can anonymously check our search results against third-party results, and mix them on the results page.

So, if I am not satisfied with Brave's result, Google's result is on the same page, or just one click away.
> Jose has really thread a needle with Elixir I feel.

There was kind of something in the zeitgeist ready for this... This was a video by Gary Bernhardt in 2012 (that's like, Elixir -2 years?). I've queued it up to where he talks about basically wanting to go live on a cruise ship, fork rubinius, and rebuild ruby on top of erlang. The main chunk of the talk is about the software pattern that Phoenix and Elixir really tries to get you to adopt.

Even as someone dismayed by the outsized influence of ancient religion on modern society, I don't think it's fair to flag this. Like it or not, this impacts a lot of people, and developing an app for that audience comes with its own set of interesting UX, curation, funding, etc. considerations.

Even if I don't like the product, it's certainly worth a discussion at least.
I really enjoyed the heavy use of pictures and animations.

There are no page size limitations on the web, as opposed to print media, so there are few reasons to be economical with pictures, imho.

There was a time when similarly styled stories from imgur were a big thing on reddit, and I also loved those.

by the end of my employment at Google, I was working about 2 hours a day (and getting Meets Expectations at L6, which is OK but not great). While I'd be online and available to respond to chat for 8 hours, I only exerted about 2 hours and most of that was just explaining to executives just how bad our fleet was.

Before that I had worked at least 6 hours a day. And I assumed that to be "right" i should be working at least 8.

From the feedback I got, I wasn't much more productive working more hours. At first I felt guilty and then I realized in my career that working harder isn't going to make any difference in terms of $, career security, or opportunity to work on cooler stuff. So, I just upped my anxiety meds and got back to working 2 hours a day.
I’m also curious what Google’s “political base” is, since they’re apparently getting final say on the search results. I keep getting Pinterest on my image searches and maybe the political base can help.
Doing it the other way around in a really small team and a lot of pressure still makes you feel guilty, you do too much work (even working an 8 hour day), burn out and end up very stressed. So careful what you wish for!

You mean just like a centrally fabricated ID card that's used for entering an airport, making certain purchases, verifying ID for a CC purchase, entering the country, etc?
> Monopoly isn't anything like real-life property trading.

Yeah, but how many people enjoy playing "Pit" ??

I will say that Acquire is a good "more realistic" take on stock trading. Its got some gamey / non-realistic rules... but those aspects make the game more fun (For example: __always__ 2:1 trades, no matter what the value of the stocks are. A $200 stock can 2:1 trade for a $1000 stock, which provides an obvious point of conflict for the various players)

Monopoly is a bad game at its core. You sit around and watch your money disappear due to shear random chance, especially if your table has memorized the probability of each property being landed upon (Orange properties have the highest probability btw, and therefore are the hottest commodity among players who know how to play the game)

The point is Germany having too much power over such matters obviously.
Ignorant and myopic. There is no specific population limit after which you can say that overpopulation occurs. If we had unlimited nuclear energy and amazing battery technology figured out (who says we never will?), we could probably have tens of billions of people sustainably with enough land for everyone. So yeah your opinion deserves to be downvoted.
> but the reality is the rapist allegations are not true

Wizards didn't fire him for being a rapist[1]. It's great he isn't a rapist! But why should his company ignore that he publicly apologized for doing sexually inappropriate things at work events?

Make sure you get a full medical work up. I “burnt out”. Fought it for years, finally was in the doc office for something unrelated (was diagnosed with t2diabeetus, and was consulting with the clinical pharmacist).

“Your bp is up, and you have low potassium, let’s check your hormone levels. Turned out I had high levels of a stress hormone which caused the high bp. CT scan, oh look you have a tumor on an adrenal gland. Kick off 1.5 years of blood tests, procedures, etc. I even died once.

So in addition to being flooded with stress hormones, they whacked my T levels.

Upshot is, now I’m fine, not burnt out. All good.

Don’t ignore potential areas that can cause you problems.
@dang, this seems like a good candidate to replace the current link of this post.
Sorry your reactions are digestive :( I feel lucky to have skin hives only in response to this - worst being lips and tongue occasionally.

Ask your doctors to become educated on it, though I'm not sure it'll do much good to you it may help the next guy they see with AGS. Send them the nih.gov papers linked in these comments.
> never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity

I think this is more than sufficiently explained by "that fancy new design" being more important "that weird nerd soapbox of what makes URLs cool or not".
I think it is definitely a hard problem to solve on a large scale to address latency, quality and size of the index they plan to address. It definitely isn't as easy as spinning up an elastic search cluster.

I agree that getting something "mostly" good or a domain specific search engine isn't as hard with the newest advances in this space with vector similarity indices.
> for all we know

If you had any idea on how US orgs work, you wouldn't say that. First, just because the government doesn't impose something, it doesn't mean companies can't do it. In fact, companies so much more for their employees than the government dictates. It's the same for minimum wage: the federal government might be stuck at 7.25, but in practice low pay jobs are more than that: Walmart was 11 last time I checked, Amazon 15 etc.

Most US tech workers have around 20 days of PTO. Paid medical leave is a bit trickier: some companies don't give it to you so it comes out of PTO. Some companies require a doctor's note. Some don't require anything. Some require a note after 10 days....it varies a lot. And this is where the US could step up a bit and acknowledge humans do get sick every now and then, and cover for that.
I did an HN poll, how many hours per day do you work including meetings and etc, and the answer was a normal distribution around 6 hours a day.

>For exsmple, AstraZeneca did a deal with Moderna including a $240MM upfront to another $180MM for potential milestones six months before the DARPA money.

This is called "biobucks" in the industry. There's an incentive to close big deals for management and business types in biotech, so they love to craft these large headlines to drop it on their resume and grift at another big pharma.

I'd be surprised if they ever received the $180MM, although $240MM upfront is really impressive.
Depends. As followers or deities?

> Utopias in general are a great demonstration of man's hubris, and we have known that forever.

This is a message that programming language designers and advocates need to hear. The idea that a better language can lead to better outcomes is itself utopian in the same way that better cities can lead to better outcomes. They both take a look at the substrate and extrapolate. Sure, there's an infinite number of ways to make a bad city, but we have to realize that's a different kind of thing.

You're spot on with the timing because that's when the scion of the family business took over: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A._G._Sulzberger#The_New_York_...

Along his goals of "doubling digital revenue" and maximising subscriber numbers, the place obviously turned towards clickbait and left-wing cheer-leading.

Give the customers what they want - and they definitely don't want to be told their worldview is wrong or that their opinion of certain issues has valid counterpoints. So it's been a huge cratering of credibility and honest reporting.
it would be very confusing to have both functions go by the same name. Very often you want the floating-point valued square root of an integer. Having the two functions with different names is much clearer, and better than forcing a conversion just to dispatch another function that performs a different computation.

Because I was responding to "The reason electron took off if because it was the first to offer an easy way to build cross platform apps".

If you're defining "cross platform" as, strictly, "the Web", then I'm not really sure what kind of exchange you're trying to have or what you're trying to add, here. Obviously only the web satisfies the criterion of being the web. Which makes me wonder even more why you didn't find that obvious.
For those who are interested in similar discourse, I recommend these cities skylines videos from youtube user donoteat01:

They are sarcastic tutorials on how to worsen your Skylines cities enough to qualify as a realistic North American metro area. If the mic quality bothers you, skip to the newer videos.
> Wouldn't this likely be using asymmetric encryption though?

It isn't, but even if it was, not in a way that makes this attack significantly more difficult.

The problem you have is that GPS receivers are receiving one or more bit streams and passively discerning their position from the timing of those bit streams.

In something like TLS (except 0RTT early_data) both peers begin by introducing randomness to each session. So this connection must be the new connection I just created, if you try to send me packets from an earlier session, the random parameters are all wrong and it's unintelligible. Verifying this is called "freshness".

In contrast a passive receiver can't check for freshness. It just has to believe whatever it is told, no choice.

So, as an adversary I can spoof your position by simply feeding you stale data. I probably shouldn't try to persuade you this is actually the middle of the Pacific ocean not the Black Sea, nor that it's actually January rather than June, but I can certainly fudge things a little bit without too much trouble.
Edit: Try now, fix is out.

We are aware of the issue. We have a fix pending.

I saw two independently published papers the other day showing a 27.5M year cycle. One was this paper talking about cycles in volcanic activity, another was talking about mass extinctions. Article here: https://phys.org/news/2020-12-mass-extinctions-land-dwelling... . I'm going to hazard a guess that the former is very likely a direct cause of the latter. We suspect this to be true of most of the worst mass extinctions, like the Permian extinction. With the dinosaurs it might have been the Chicxulub asteroid impact, or that might have merely been the finishing blow to a system under severe stress from the Decan Traps flood basalt eruptions in India that had been underway for millions of years by that point. There are plenty of indications that species were declining well before the impact.

The solar system takes 230 million years to make one complete orbit around the Milky Way, so I don't think this is likely caused by our passage through the galaxy. It's more likely an internal rhythm in activity deep within the Earth.

> You read complaints on HN all the time that sure make it seem like we have entered a Malaise Era in computing. Us developers surely do not run computers set up like the average consumer, and you can be darn sure that corporate executives at Microsoft and Apple do not get plain vanilla laptops fresh off the production line.

One of my college internships involved setting up laptops for VIPs and Executives for exactly these reasons! We optimized the installs, removed crud ware, and setup the system to be as well performing as possible, then shipped them out.

At one point Lenovo made a laptop where they cut costs by removing the cache on the HDD, there was nothing we could do to make that machine not horrible. Multiple minutes to do simple tasks, installing Office took hours! It was horrible, their reputation was so bad a number of them came back to us not even having been opened.
>What? Windows, Office ( cross-platform since recently) and dev tools are totally different cash cows.

Office for Windows was released in the same year as Windows 3.0, supporting all the new core technologies including OLE. Before then MS desktop software products were also-rans. From this point on they dominated, because they had been engineered natively for Windows right alongside the development of Windows itself before any of their competitors even had access to the frameworks and dev tools, or Windows 3.0 to develop and test on. It was part of a single coherent integrated platform strategy for Windows. Now it's grown beyond the platform, but the reason it matters is because of it's privileged position on the Windows platform.

XBox just doesn't matter. It's not big enough. If it died, Microsoft's bottom line would barely shift. Office does matter, we just see it's strategic position differently.
All of this doesn't take into account technological advancement.

The process was chaotic and 'improvising' is certainly an appropriate characterization.

In truth, the awesome doctor only lightly suggested this as a possibility. I worked with her (the doc) pretty closely. We were both reading large volumes of medical studies, and creatively coming up with things to test/check for. My wife was too sick to substantively participate. She was also taking care of our young, autistic son.

I suggested to my wife that she cut out all mammal proteins, and she was fine with it, just to try. We got lucky and her symptoms cleared up in a few weeks.

Replace "patent" with "parcel of land". Now how does it sound?

What bothers me is that selling a parcel of land is easy, but invalidating the sale requires a "principal officer" and is treated as a huge infringement on property rights. What about the rights of everyone else, who are forbidden from using a parcel of land by the land owner? Isn't that a much greater infringement upon liberty or property, than invalidating the sale of a parcel of land?

Seeing a doctor and getting medication (I don't take amphetamines) has been super helpful for everything from feeling better about my work and being more productive, to handling day-to-day life. The biggest improvement is just in conversation/meetings/engaging with people, where I don't find myself wondering about bizarre hypotheticals instead of paying attention to the topic at hand.
