Actually, more people are making cool internet things than ever. The internet is in a golden age of creative expression across every conceivable medium. Anything you can think of - art, music, video, games, ARGs, fiction and unfiction.

But they're not putting those things on quirky hand-coded websites, so Hacker News doesn't care. The idea that most of the modern web is boring, uninteresting and not worth anyone's time is just peak tech-hipster contrarian nonsense. Sheer volume alone would suggest that, even if that were true, the interesting remainder would still be bigger than one could see within a lifetime.

2 -> This is the only part of the comment I agree with, inflation is slower to show up in sticky prices.

The rest is wrong - you can look to an economist https://www.themoneyillusion.com/it-really-really-really-doe... if you want an explanation.

I'll not there is a tension between 2 and 3 as highly competitive markets tend to not have sticky prices.

tl;dr You advance a claim of strong monetary non-neutrality. I think that outside of sticky prices, your claim is overstated.

Dr. Fauci and the NIH misled the public repeatedly, claiming that there was no funding of gain-of-function research. Finally they were forced to admit that they were indeed finding such research.

Fool me once shame on me. Fool me repeatedly…

I do wonder if an unspoken part of the drive (even if a small part) to get more women in tech is to get more male engineers coupled up.

There are tons of single males in STEM making buckets of money, spending very little, and retiring early. Not only does that mean the profession loses a ton of people before they become senior and have time to train up the next generation, but it reduces supply of engineers and forces employers to keep salaries high.

"blatantly obvious, and not even questionable."

Is it objectively true?
Your rewrite of the question misses out the “Do they?”, which links my question to the claim made by the poster I was replying to. That is the context of the question.

The links you posted don’t answer that question. They have nothing to do with the study of those subjects, only the generic act of getting a degree.

Indeed those papers show the converse of the OP’s claim - they show that you do not need to study those subjects to get those benefits - any degree will do.
Unless those official clients have features not available in the all-in-one client. Like encryption, which this one apparently lacks.
I got loctite, which is a brand famous for making thread locking adhesive - so much so that the product is generally referred to just loctite in the industry, similar to tissues/kleenex and vacuum cleaner/hoover.

Apparently now it also means "a mineral of the basaltic and orogenic variety, typically occurring in white phosphates and blue crystalline crystals" - I love that the blue crystals are crystalline too!

That said, the best option might be a $19 ACM student membership. That will get you free online access to all O'Reilly titles.

Maybe, maybe not. Lisp files can have top-level structure (relationship between top-level forms). Like defining a class here, function there.

This is the topic of a StackOverflow question:

One advantage would be that the stuff between (begin document) and (end document) consists of multiple forms which are separately read, expanded and processed, which can be quite important in some situations.

Also there is the possibility that some form in the document could load another file.

(begin document)

Back when WoW launched I was still on dialup, and played far too much for my own good. Part of playing on dialup was getting used to the latency, like 'queuing' my follow-up spell casts when my current one was anywhere from a fraction of a second to 0.5s from completion, so the command would arrive at the server just as my current one finished. As a healer this was important to avoid dead time where I could be keeping the tank alive.

It wasn't until into the 2nd expansion that I got broadband, and hoo boy was it hard to adjust to. Suddenly I didn't have to anticipate and plan ahead nearly as much, and I had a whole new learning curve to go through to get my timing on point again. It seemed to me at the time that the game was structured pretty decently to handle the huge differences in player system specs and connection capabilities.
From my experience I think tools such as HDFS, Columnar database, Flink/Spark, Kafka etc are widely used. Some companies still use tools of the previous generation such as Mapreduce which could still be useful.

> "What I get a lot is: 'Why are you against the Semantic Web?' I am not against the Semantic Web. But from Google's point of view, there are a few things you need to overcome, incompetence being the first,. . . We deal with millions of Web masters who can't configure a server, can't write HTML. It's hard for them to go to the next step."

Thankfully we have a bit more practice writing HTML today. Rdfa & microdata are both fine markup formats for html that are not hard to understand. Rdfa first got semi-started in 2004, & honestly, was not that challenging. More code-centric systems also have JSON-LD as an option, which is fairly simple to author.

What concerns me most though is that Norvig seems to be arguing a strong case of worse-is-better, claiming that since some people will find semantic web difficult to publish, it's not worth doing at all. That we could be creating value, that we could be making information more rich is not of interest: the focus is on the downsides, is on creating an image of unsuccess, unpossibility. It's a dissapointing framing & difficult to try to move a conversation forward past this low bogland Norvig sets up.

> "The second problem is competition. Some commercial providers say, 'I'm the leader. Why should I standardize?'"

Today Google is a primary instigator/driver of schema.org, along with Microsoft Yahoo, and Yandex. I'd say Google is the best evidence this hard problem wasn't really so hard.

Also, there are other perfectly good ontologies out there that also coexist.

> "The third problem is one of deception. We deal every day with people who try to rank higher in the results"

Again a problem specific to Google. Semantic web doesn't have to be the authoritative source of truth & 100% accurate to start to add value to the world, to make the information on the page meaningful & semantic. But again Norvig is applying his specific demands to the Semantic Web, & making an incredibly high bar.

---

The page has been a glossy synthetic produced whole object-artifact for a long time now. I for one continue to hope we can do what the semantic web promised: start to break down the things on the page, to define the page in terms of a construction of a bunch of different, individual, meaningful objects.

I don't think truly empowering information & augmenting people (in this semantic web style) is compatible with the mission statement of a company whose goal has been to "organize and make available the world's information," since such a company would be less needed if the information were better able to present & make available itself. Norvig was taking down a huge threat, and one that indeed is not particularly helpful to his cause.
Oh hello there! I'm the founder of https://railway.app/ and "Vercel for Backends" is what we get a lot

You can give us a go at https://dev.new/

Anything else we've missed and I'm happy to sit down with you (or anybody else) and hear what your needs are. Arbitrary evented triggers are coming pretty soon as well as the API so the infrastructure should be fully composable/meta.

This isn't true. Something creative, some web toy, gets linked on HN's front page at least once a day. Usually more often. Even in the hellscapes of Twitter or Facebook, you'll find interesting writing, weird animations, or new illustrations. There's immense creativity released daily. Too much for one person to ever keep up with.

Just because strip malls are plentiful, doesn't mean good architecture no longer exists.

And I remember the old days. For every hand-crafted gem of a site, there were a 100 with little more than a grainy photo of Slipknot and an "under construction" animation.
A few years ago I read a study which analysed this but I can't find the link. All I remember was among the occupations considered, actuaries were the least likely to divorce, especially to other actuaries. I think this is simply a consequence of the intellectual statifiction of society.
While I agree with all the people who appreciate Dunes special effects, scenery, and actor choices…can we all agree that the directing is lack luster? The story isn’t being explained well. Emotions are being expressed with little or no back story and really fail to engage the audience emotionally. It really seems as if this would have been better done in GoT style. I mean I have to watch part two, but not because part 1 was good story telling or even acting. It wasn’t.

Not really. It was called Key Arena before because Key Bank funded it. It was good advertising for them. The buildings on college campuses are also named after their donors. It acknowledges who paid for it.

Names can also just be for fun, like the Seattle Space Needle. The Emerald City is also the official nickname for Seattle.

Climate Pledge Arena is about as fun as "eat your broccoli, it's good for you."

>If you would like to retract your previous statements, feel free.

I am not retracting anything. But if you respond to the one I deleted, you should respond to the one I didn't.

>As I said in my previous comment I have no opinion of intra semitic squabbles.

It makes no difference to me. I understood you to be saying that the US military was who you wanted to bomb Israel, in the 21st century, in retaliation for the Liberty, and that is IMO not a feasible goal. By using the term "blow up" I meant to be inclusive of anything, whether or not considered conventional military action. The point is, it is believable to me to have the goal but not the hope of doing it that way. It's also logical that if you have a goal, you work with or promote people who have a similar goal, even if you don't share the underlying reasons.

>I'm merely suggesting the US should have a foreign policy that treats other countries equally and that it would be in the national interest to be seen as a fair arbiter in the world

There is no changing the past. If US foreign policy is to be
judged by the Liberty, then it is unchangeable definitionally. I don't see how you can want what you say you want, because it's logically impossible.

>If you are suggesting a disproportionate response that would be fine by me

I haven't suggested any particular response would be the right one, in any circumstance, whether we are talking about the Israeli response or an imaginary US one in modern times.

My point is that a proportional response to anything is never enough to deter, because it never can be applied 100% of the time. So people who advocate a proportional response to anything are not serious.

I'm not debating whether it is the right moral standard, people claim it is a lot.

I'm saying that it's impractical and nobody can expect it to become a rule. Proportional retaliation does not serve the purpose of retaliation. I believe this is a timeless principle. In a logical, not a moral sense.

I got:

adjective.
roasty
relating to cooking outdoors or under boiling water in order to steam and grind food
"an attractive, roasty summer harvest"

But "roasty" is a word that exists. Maybe not how they tried to define it but it definitely exists.
Bad idea! That's a commanded design rather than a fail-safe design. Yes, there should be some sort of stop-robot beacon, but you need to shield the worker also. Emergency systems should always fail in the safe direction!
What about in the Apple case where:

- The alternative is hold the keys to your photo library and scan the entire thing (like google photos)

vs

- Don't hold the keys but do CSS, that then on a positive provides partial keys to partial data.

That feels like a better trade off. But I can see that it could be the slippery slope towards broader CSS...
Maybe this exists, but what would a non-blockchain "distributed cloud" look like? Bittorrent, but for compute instead of just storage/transfer. You might need some kind of central authority orchestrating it all, almost certainly to manage payments at least. I'm just wondering how the world's consumer computers stand up against megacorp data-centers when you mash them all together. Certainly the "edge" could be even closer to the end user than data centers would allow.

I'm imagining an individual or org could download a daemon, start it up on a spare machine (or a workstation with spare cycles!) and just get paid over time as people run lambdas/workers on their hardware. Of course you'd need some really intense sandboxing, but that seems like it could be solvable. Or maybe it isn't, and that's the reason this doesn't exist.
I'd say the "python of lisp" is definitely racket.

Beginner friendly, lots of batteries included, large community with lots of libraries.

Here's an example of a simple webserver using the standard library: https://docs.racket-lang.org/web-server/run.html#%28part._se...

I'm also a fan of the first tutorial on the site. Instead of the boring stuff like hello world, 2+2, print your name etc, they use a built in library for drawing shapes to the console, and learn how to build up procedures for drawing more complex objects.

It feels like learning to code with logo (which they also have a clone built in of https://docs.racket-lang.org/logo/index.html)

All the good stuff said, I've never used it for system plumbing scripts like I do with python. I'd imagine it's worse for that due to the sheer popularity python has.

I highly doubt opposing giving people more freedom because you think society is in a bad shape (why? social media? I don't think this is as big an issue as you make it seem) is either morally right or useful. Clearly things could be better w/r to people's view of Internet, but that doesn't prevent doing other things to make other facets of life better.

Moreover, this fear of social unrest because of this new social media craze/new-woke extremism and closed-mindedness of other views is a middle-class thing. Poor people can't afford to waste their time arguing on social media/protesting/going deeper down the rabbit hole. Even if it were moral to oppose UBI on such grounds, I do not believe it is an actual issue that would get worse because of UBI.

EDIT: Or I guess it might, by making these people middle class/giving them too much time. I still think this is immoral and not grounds on which a democratic society should oppose policies.
It really is an excellent book! I've worked my way through the audiobook twice. It's so much fun!

If I had to wish for one major change in modern game development, it would be for us to get back onto a much, much shorter development schedules. The idea of a extremely popular game being able to be released to the public after only a few months is just such a compelling thing. (It's what I love about game jams!)

I realize, to some tiny degree, the technical challenges with modern game development and why things are the way they are, but when you get into this routine of, "Okay guys, we're going to devote 7 years making this thing" it should come as no small surprise when the people financing it have zero incentive to allow any amount of "personality" seep into the final product.

I'm not even trying to claim that modern games aren't creative - they're massively creative! - it's just that the sort of tonality...that spirit of "Remember: Games are FUN so please, go have FUN playing our game!!!" is just completely stiffiled and absent. It's like that plucky spirit has been stomped out under the threat of mindbogglingly huge budget requirements, bi-DECADE development cycles, and multi-month crunch times. It just seems like there's no room for indie development to compete at anywhere near the same level as major studios anymore.

It's a shame, and I hope it changes.
Democracy has absolutely collapsed. Our days are governed for eight hours by autocratic bosses and for eight hours by autocratic "products" and "services." We have no say about how our work is conducted, nor about what poisons hit the shelves.

It's astonishing to me that anyone thinks we have "democracy" under Capitalism, where plutocracy masquerades as meritocracy – which isn't democracy, anyway!

> They can decide for themselves what to believe.

In a vacuum, perhaps, but not under the inescapable deluge of marketing for not just commercial and classically "religious" institutions but the "patriotism" of American Civil Religion. Our consent to all the above — to the taxes we pay, and to the work that we do — is all manufactured by this propaganda. Our agency is tightly, tightly constrained by plutocratic machinations. (To say nothing of the constraints applied especially to marginalized identities, some of whom are living in a post-apocalyptic hell-scape and surviving literal genocide).

Democracy has long since collapsed. Count yourself lucky not to have noticed.

Don't know why you get downvoted, but I agree will all your points. Maybe instead of "low power" they mean a sustainable energy source so it's perma-nent. Also since data storage is constantly moving to be more volatile, complex to decode and distributed in space, we might want to start encoding our knowledge as the ancient civilizations did, in stone, but with some easy to decode language (think Voyager probe). That would be permastorage. Imagine a future civilization unearthing the secrets to reach microplatics pollution, or nuclear annihilation.. er well, not sure about that.
