Edit: Rant about Google removed.

Google knows about it if you try searching for kagi search engine. Still not amazing, but given how mad I'm at Google I better compensate slightly.

In duckduckgo.com it is the third result when I just search for kagi.
If you are the partner of a depressed person, your primary responsibility is to yourself. You have to stay sane. THEN, if you can, you can support and help your partner. But if you lose your own mental health you’re pretty much done.

This paragraph reminded me of the advice given regarding oxygen masks on planes. If you can't breathe, you're of no use to anyone, so sort out your own mask before helping others, etc. The fact they have to keep reminding us of this, though, is perhaps a demonstration that this doesn't come naturally to many.
> Morris worm was in the late 80s

To be fair, that wasn't any kind of scam; it was more like "I started a joke that started the whole world laughing".
I believe that the only moat protecting $100B of AdWords revenue is the quality of the Google Search results. There is no meaningful switching cost to using a new search engine, and the spend inertia in ad spend is not very significant (i.e. any online marketing manager will happily spend 5% of their budget in a different search engine adwords-like program if they get better ROI, there is no incentive the be a "Google Ads only shop").

On the other hand, Google needs to maintain the ballistic trajectory of its revenue growth. So how can they fix search quality when they've minmax'd themselves into this situation in the first place? If they were to make the ads background yellow again, that would have negative short term effects that I doubt any career exec can stomach.
A bit of scarcasm there, people who are any good are going to be currently employed by and large.
> then berated a candidate who showed up without a red tie for "lack of attention to detail"""

I'm curious: could it be because the candidate's resume listed "attention to detail" as one of their strengths?

(but yeah, like the other commenter, I don't even have a red tie... or any tie, for that matter)

Intel Core I5-12400 Review: Budget Gaming Supremacy
a few years back I was complaining to a friend about how much crappy art there is on the internet, and instead of sympathizing he answered with "that means I can make crappy art too" and felt empowered by the permission to not have to be good at it at first. As for gaining talent at art this is my best advice to allow yourself to be bad at it for a long time until you are good at it. This takes years, usually like 10 years or more, but you will see significant progress in a month, a half a year and a year.

But let's try to answer your other questions.

Making money - look up the 1000 true fans article, that's the core of it. With this there are many routes like having a storefront online, money from ads on YouTube, creating products (like a coffee table book or a card deck with art on it, or a coloring book, or others), but as for getting into galleries that requires being somewhat known in that local community, for that you have to do competitions, go to shows, and participate at the local level, basically focused networking.

Getting Known - Besides that you'll be doing what most marketing people do for yourself an your art, lots of social media posting(probably daily multiple times a day even - see successful Instagram campaigns), joining and building communities interacting with them and tailoring/catering to them. Ideas for content include 1.showing the art, 2.my process commentary, 3.speed painting, 4.tricks & techniques, 5.reverse engineering another artist's work, 6.inspiration and references - these matter as artists are a big part of the audience themselves.

Shows - once one has talent, network/community and awards then they get invited to shows and galleries. It would probably be best if you asked someone that works at a local gallery how they do it and what they look for, and what they know.

But all of that said the first steps is to get good, for that I recommend "Draw a Box" or college courses - professors are a good source of networking too, after that the local community is where it's at, go to art meetups, figure out where they hang out, some communities even have studio space to rent or live in things like that. It pretty quickly becomes a small world, so careful who's toes get stepped on along the way.
The article's XOR key was 0xFF :) Definitely out of the sufficiently large key range.

Are there symptoms of low testosterone in men?

I wonder if its more common than we realize.
Agree! Hopefully one day we'll have more agreeable legislation here.
Depends on the situation, but I think general advice would be to do one of two things based on the assumption that you're in your 30s and don't already have a solid plan on what to do with 10k on your hands:

1. Invest in yourself. Start a business, take some classes, try to upgrade your current job, etc.. Improve your work situation so that the 10k turns into easily 100k of earnings over time. Or use it to improve your health, saving money long term in health costs. Whatever. Investing in yourself is usually the safest bet you can make.

[Edit: 1.5 - forgot the generic personal finance advice - if you don't already have an emergency fund, use this to create it. Just put the 10k in a savings account to have a bit of liquid cash on hand in case something bad happens and you need it fast. If you're good there, but you have any very high interest debt, pay that down second.]

2. Put in into something safe-ish with good growth potential, like VTSAX, and save it for a rainy day. Maybe start a retirement fund if you haven't already.
You just keep adding nonsense to the discussion. Is self driving going to be limited to 50km/h? No it's not, so what are you talking about?

Is crashing your car at 50km/h not potentially deadly or dangerous? Of course it is. So, what are you talking about?

When planes typically fly in the air, how many other planes are nearby? 0

When cars drive on the road, how many other cars or pedestrians are nearby? Often many

Just because planes get completely obliterated at the speeds they travel doesn't mean cars going much slower in accidents come out unscathed. This is like elementary school stuff here.

Ok, fine, 'as you defined it'. It's hard to read your table on mobile. My only suggestion was that your definition might not be what the original commenter meant, because it's not my layman's understanding that they're different, but I don't know, maybe they also use your definition, no point arguing about it.

(Though it does seem a little odd to me to object to the comment on the basis of a definition you introduce yourself that even if some sort of standard is something that varies enough that Wikipedia uses a crucially different one.)
Searching code is also impossible on Google. If there’s a competing search engine for that I’ll use it at least for this use case.
>This may not just be a problem with Google but possibly also the recipe for beating Google. A startup usually has to start with a niche market. Why not try writing a search engine specifically for some category dominated by SEO spam?

>You might need to do a lot of manual spam fighting initially. That could be both the thing-that-doesn't-scale, and the thing that differentiates you by being alien to Google's DNA. (They must hate manual interventions; so inelegant).

I love when devs blow off SPAs because they think they're geniuses or above JS. You spun up a shitty 1995 style site that every menu on the toolbar triggers a page reload and patted yourself on the back. Congrats on sending the same html and css with every page load, I'm sure your low network speed users love it.

Eureka exclaimed the "full-stack" developer, who needs javascript!?
That's not a very charitable interpretation of my rhetorical question. More to the point, why would a person presumably not specialized in hiring be tasked to make a decision about a role they have no expertise in, based on a 40 minute video conversation? What signal could they have possibly picked up on in that timeframe that should override the judgement of HR and engineers in the preceding multiple screenings and technical assessments?

"Don't hire. Brown guy didn't smile enough. Total jerk."
Good idea. You could start with fitness. Lots of high-quality information out there that’s entirely, 100% inaccessible via google.

Over COVID, I did the whole fitness thing from a few different angles (overhauled diet, trained for a marathon, now lifting weights a lot). I found I could only find good info by going directly to a trusted source - literally, typing http://www. like I’m in the 90s or something. This is the exact issue a search engine should solve, but Google doesn’t.
This x100000.

There is no scenario - none - where thousands of engineers at Google working on search wake up in the morning and say "we sure have made it good enough wr2 SPAM. I think I'll have another Danish."

Technically accurate but misleading statement. There's nothing particular about Linux that enables this.

I think they mean using XOR with a repeated fixed tiny key _as_ the stream cipher, rather than just using XOR to mix the keystream and the plaintext.

These ECUs aren't using one time pads with key lengths the same size as the firmware. I doubt they're using one time pads at all, which would necessitate each version of firmware using a different key.

Vulnerability in Log4j 2.17.0 more hype than substance
Sure, but water's pretty much opaque to UV-A, so essentially you're just heating up the water the viron is suspended in -- which doesn't require any particular frequency specificity. And the virus viability period on a cloth mask once the water evaporates is so low that there's no reason to target it then.

7500 might barely be considered a novelette. But if you're going to categorize non-fiction in fiction terms, the most comfortable length category is short story, which usually goes up to 10k.
"Having it or not having it" is completely divorced from having a successful career in art. I suppose what having a successful career means is subjective, but realistically, if you don't have art school pedigree, then you're not very likely to have a path that involves gallery representation, etc...

I agree with what you're saying though, most people who want to "make it in art" have to find their own path which is ultimately entrepreneurship, but there's not really an answer to "what works", is there?

What are some search categories that are so dominated by spam that they are unusable?

I'll start: "how to rent a car" [0]

This reminds me of this video I watched about a farming family in Wisconsin. It's obviously high-level and anecdata, but I think it's along the same lines as your post and OP: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRPP4Ilpxso
Did I miss where somebody promised you a definitive answer to the question?
I think a lot of this is due to Google both owning search and the ads on the websites (AdSense). There’s an incentive for them to prioritize click farms (and other sites filled with their ads). I think in general there may be a correlation between the number of ads on a site and its usefulness to me, which is inverse to its usefulness to google.

I’m curious what would happen if those products were split up into 2 separate companies.

Also, i'd be very surprised if they didn't have tens of thousands of workers aiding in spam review already.

The hard part in all of this isn't finding and stopping spam - it's defining what spam is. Are all the pie recipes where there's a 2000 word essay about their grandma at the top 'spam'? They still have the recipe, and Google Home devices pick up the recipe instructions just fine so people end up not reading it, but many people would still consider that spam since it adds such an obstacle to getting the information you want. Same for cnet articles like "Best smart home devices to buy in 2022" - it's a reputable brand with a list of smart home devices, but it's hardly a review and exists to funnel people to their Amazon affiliate link.
At-will employment varies by state, so
CapitalistCartr's comment above is true in many states[1]. For example, in Georgia, your employment can be terminated for no reason at all at any time (as long as it is not for a protected reason, i.e. firing because of the employee's race, religion or sexuality).

edit: changed Florida to Georgia because Florida specifically appears to have at least some exceptions to this[2]. In Georgia it seems even if your employer is doing something illegal and you report it, they can legally fire you in retaliation.

I don't really have much of an opinion on their moderation.

My opinion is in regards to the other parts. When you submit some sort of content, they are analyzing it in every possible way. When you log in and view content, they are deciding what to show you and that includes showing you content that you didn't ask for as well as not showing you content you did ask for. This is all done to maximize revenue. And that's fine, they can do whatever they want (including their moderation practices).

I think that they've made the decision to be in the publishing business. That's all.
Never took a dump on a plane, but I hate airports, and usually find myself at the bar before boarding which more than often has led to a painful urge to pee at the worst times.
More useless bloat on the web. Fantastic. Because everyone has 256 GB of RAM and an internet connection measured in GB/s, right?
A blockchain might go part of the way to solving that problem, but as you say there are other solutions (any public database can be monitored for record changes if that trumps privacy concerns, and non-blockchain databases can be append only) and transfers of property ownership aren't necessarily consensual and compensated just because immutable public records are made of them. And if it's landowners rather than an untrustworthy oracle updating the database with records of land transactions you create a new class of problem (if you lose a private key is that land yours in perpetuity? Or is it someone else's in perpetuity if they steal your private key or exploit a bug in a related smart contract and won't give it back?)

Which is where trusted counterparties like the one you suggested are a much better bet than an untrustworthy party enforcing and administering a record and its exception handling, even if that record itself is immutable.
Not OP, but you can replicate probably very well by just copying any sentence from an SO question and pasting it into google. You will find duplicates. If not, try find a more unique sentence in that question/answer, especially with a weird way of speaking. In my example below, the tell was that legitimate NLP re-writes of the question didn't include "and do what ever you want", so including it found lots of clones.

They are being intelligent now and using NLP to mix-up the content, but it's very much the same question or answers, or just the answers, or some variation of the two, or made to look like a forum with SO comments as forum replies, etc. Most of it is non-nonsensical if you try understand it.

Example:

"What you can do is set the FormBorderStyle property to None and do what ever you want with the form using GDI" from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11862315/changing-the-co...

> Web 3.0 didn't go anywhere

"Anywhere" is a bit harsh; Google (and seemingly other indexers) honor semantic markup in several contexts via https://schema.org/ -- I would bet that's a large contributor to the "Rich Result" cards that show up in the SERP for sites with such markup.

Separate from other "generic" semantic data markup concepts, JSON-LD[1] is also still making a showing, most commonly (in my experience) as `<script type="application/json+ld">`

So I guess it depends on whether "go anywhere" means "Amazon.com is fully HATEOAS serving RDF, or GTFO" but I would think the actual situation is that it just is taking a while for pointy-haired types to see market value in adopting those concepts, and not so much "what a failure"

> 95% of people I talked to were non-technical

One takeaway I found from my experience, using a combination of linkedin and ycombinator co-founder match is just how many non-technical think you are going to be an employee. One meeting was basically 10 minutes of me pitching my idea, then 20 minutes of them asking if I was interested in contract work on an idea that was a year in with no progress. One guy was even like, "look, i need a coder, I can pay you x", not a great way to end a co-founder date.
