My then brand new Sony Vaio Pentium 3 laptop running Me would BSOD at least once or twice a week for no particular reason at all. Once it was available, I installed Win 2000 and had zero issues ruling out faulty hardware.

Counter to this, I also ran Vista without issue on various AMD machines for a few years. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. I blame drivers...
I think it is also no longer in their interest. If you look at their mobile results now, there are sometimes no search results for webpages, just ads, and their automatically extracted data. So, it is in their interest now to have the search for non-advertisers to be bad. Eventually people will consider those results junk and just use the google extracted data/people who paid to go up.
Depression does exist, there is no question here.

We should be empathatic to everyone, not conditional of having or not having depression. The lack of general empathy humans have towards one another is a leading cause of depression - such as people being anti-women, anti-gay, anti-trans, racist, classist or politically biased in such a way that they seek out the thrill of having their "happiness" be at the cost of others.

If you're not learning anything, it sounds like you're just refusing to learn.

Learning doesn't mean having all the answers, learning means trying working towards the best outcomes and adapting as necessary based out outputs. With humans/emotions - it's not going to be learning that is absolute or even based on region/culture/ethnicity but those can certainly play broad roles.

They already have the tech to fight this on YT. They, in theory, are supposed to be doing the same thing to detect inauthentic behavior on ad placement and click abuse.
For Amazon Linux, the recipes are slightly different for the AMI versus on-Prem. For the AMI we cut out a bunch of things from the initramfs that you don’t typically need in a cloud environment saving a further second (ish) of launch time. This config is in the Dracula-config-ec2 package.

For on-Prem you may actually use this, so we don’t build it in there.

I think the issue is that these crappy results are kind of good for revenue. It’s not just organic results impacted but all the affiliate ads.

Google is smart so I assume they crunched the numbers and figured out they make more money from people filtering through crappy results that include viewing and clicking ads than by surfacing good content.

I think Google is optimizing for ad revenue, not for good search.
This is a harsh but correct take. Additionally separating your backend logic into an API makes it easier to write more clients for your service. This benefit can’t be overstated.

I heard that story about Tsar Nicholas II, in whose reign the first Trans-Siberian railway line (from Moscow to Vladivostok) was actually completed- it was begun during his father's reign, but Nicholas supervised it from the beginning.

The similar Stalin story is about the Hotel Moskva, as depicted on the label of Stolichnaya vodka. The architect allegedly didn't know which of two possible designs Stalin wanted to approve, so one wing was built to each design.

Apologies for the assumption. Whenever these threads pop up one of the biggest issues in discussion that I see is the conflation of definitions for all these different farming practices. To the uninformed organic and regenerative are the same thing. My comment was just an attempt to clarify that regenerative ag the article is talking about and organic farming are not the same thing.

Zyte | Senior Data Scientist | REMOTE | Full-time | https://www.zyte.com/

At Zyte (formerly Scrapinghub), our goal is to help you get the data from the web, so we develop services such as smart rotating proxies, browser rendering API, data extraction API, a cloud for running your crawling jobs, etc.

At the data science team, the main project we work on is data extraction API, which can extract articles, products, job postings and other data types from any website, and also do automatic crawling and discovery. We approach this as a machine learning problem, with a deep learning model combining web page screenshot, text, node information and other features, trained on hundreds of thousands of web pages. We work on improving the quality of extraction and increasing coverage of attributes and data types. I find this problem really fascinating to work on, as on one side, you get to work on a neural network which uses both image, text and graphs as inputs and can find inspiration from current ML literature, but on the other hand, web extraction is not so well studied, and a great deal of experimentation is required. Our tech stack on the ML side is Python and PyTorch. We love Open Source: Zyte founders are authors of a popular Scrapy framework, and we open source many libraries we heavily rely on internally, such as dateparser and extruct.

The company has been fully remote since the start, and hires from a large number of countries. Please check more details at https://wrkbl.ink/iNsRDym, and feel free to check other positions at https://apply.workable.com/zyte/

I don’t see any mention of blind subjective A/B testing in this article, which makes me wonder whether TH is familiar with reviewing audio gear.

The only sensible rule of audio gear “is this an upgrade in quality” testing of components upstream of speakers and headphones, is that you have to do a blind test with an A/B switch provided to the listener and ask them to decide which sounds better.

No such testing is done with this gear, so it’s impossible to support a statement about whether it’s better or worse. And the details of that test setup would be awesome reading, if they did it.

It’s probably not better, but let’s prove it. Come on, Toms.

You’re rare as far as expectations go in the Bay Area. Most interviewers want explanations the whole way. Basically don’t stop talking ever.
Good to see you in this thread! I just added Marginalia to the recommended search engines in a new search tool I'm building, to get programming answers faster. The search assistant builds queries for specific sites with "site:targetsite.com , programming question" (that comma is not a typo). When doing a query like that I get no results but these warnings:

/!\ The term "," contains characters that are not currently supported

/!\ Try rephrasing the query, changing the word order or using synonyms to get different results. Tips.

sample: https://search.marginalia.nu/search?query=site%3Astackoverfl...

Please make your engine ignore the comma, it shouldn't affect the search.

Either ignore the site:... expression or filter sites accordingly.

Thanks a lot for creating Marginalia!

Make sure to adjust the memory timings to enhance the soundstage. (Or whatever other ridiculous jargon they'll come up with to elaborate upon the placebo effect.)
Is conservative leaning info spam or not spam? What about liberal leaning info?

We have seen what this leads to inside the social networks as well as YouTube, and at a macro scale I think we might want to have a shared concept of what constitutes a good search result for a given query.

At micro scale, it can seem more optimized to get exactly the type of result you want, but if we take an absurd example like an Apple Pie recipe shouldn't we all have shared understanding of what types of ingredients would make for an Apple Pie?

The shared understanding, I believe, is core to communication. If all of us have our own specific ideas of Apple Pie, then who is actually right on what an Apple Pie really is? What happens when your search results insist that an Apple Pie doesn't actually have apples in it, but instead pears?
Altavista was the only search engine in the same league as Google. So Google hired the guy who built it. Altavista infrastructure couldn't scale beyond a single server, because that's how DEC was, so it was a smart move for him.
Wow, the fact that you compare Reddit to HN, and you consider the Reddit SPA to be "better" means you have a fundamentally different notion of better. For me, Old Reddit and Hacker News load fast, feel snappy and native, and work better in every way, while the new Reddit SPA is sluggish, full of random network errors and bugs that I encounter regularly just clicking around, and takes up a ton of memory/CPU just to browse a discussion site.

And Reddit's frontpage size is 1.3 MB according to one check I did which checks the size of all network calls after loading, etc. and that's WITHOUT all the lazy-loaded content below the fold.
+1 on the backlash of bans.

Funny enough, that's why Dr. Malone isn't against vaccines at all, he's against mandates. (and vaccinating kids, specifically.)

The question is what came first. The drug addiction or homelessness? I think a lot of people see that even if they work hard they won't go anywhere so they give up.

When I grew up in Germany we had neighbors where the dad had no education, worked in a warehouse, had a house, 3 children and the mom stayed at home. In the same area now they can barely scrape by if both parents work full time. Add some mental problems to this and you quickly drop out because there is no safetey margin left these days.
TL;DR – Incidents can still happen despite code freezes. Developers on call should be paid extra. Account for the holiday season during quarterly planning. Time during deploy freezes can be spent on other tasks like planning, specs, tooling, testing.

Are any of these really "hot takes"?

> XOR with a sufficiently large key is absolutely fine, and with a one-time pad is unbreakable

Excuse me, how do you envision the use of one-time pads in the real world?

And with sufficiently large block keys - how do you deal with data full of zeros? Because XOR of 0 will give you the exact key you have encrypted the data with.

You are not a cryptographer, and indeed, I don’t think you’ve spent enough time thinking about it.
Ironic that the face at the bottom of rhe page (the republisher, not rhe author) has every visual hallmark of the angry, incel neckbeard stereotype or in other words, "a loser".

Yes, many people who bumble through college may be unmotivated and not that intelligent. Its certainly not some 100% iron clad rule.

Another thing that would be a sign of a "loser" to me would be writing angry and not even particularly insightful rants calling broad swaths of other people losers

I'm not right now in a position to join an early stage startup, or even have my own idea about one -- but I'm very interested to hear about people's ideas or just see what topics are being discussed to know what's out there.

What places / sites / channels of info are good to visit or tune into to get in touch with the startup world? Or just to find out what's new and interesting? I would have no idea how to even get 3 co-founder contacts from the article's description.

I don't have a lot of personal contacts to do this (I suppose this is similar to someone who doesn't live in the Bay Area but wants to work there some day), so would be glad to hear any advice!

If companies don't like his reviews, they'll stop sending review units. That hits both in the pocketbook and the race to be one of the earlier reviewers of a new product. Reduced conflict, perhaps, but not none.
Yeah, but then why not make it the only one? One reason is that proc-macros can "see" the syntax outside the point of declaration(or enclosed). This means you must do macro_rules! {struct.... } instead of declare the struct first then forward it.
Yeah agreed. People with the money to move to a new city and live indoors aren’t the ones losing their homes.

I do think our housing shortage makes hiring even harder in a tight labor market.
> There can't be that much criminal money out there.

There can be and there is, especially in cryptocurrency. The only economic use for Bitcoin back in its early days was in black market transactions. The holders of early extremely large positions in crypto are techie early adopters who liked messing around with the technology (significant, but only gets you so far), and criminal groups. The former are probably more interested in the crypto ecosystem, the latter are highly motivated to find ways to turn their massive positions into cash.

That isn't to say that every high-priced or weird NFT purchase/crypto transaction/whatever is part of a nefarious money laundering scheme, just that if there are spaces that make money laundering easier, you can bet that people with money to launder are trying to take advantage of them in general.

I'll bite.

"Stealing" recipes from taco ladies? Come now, the recipe for a burrito is not intellectual property. You can learn traditional Mexican cooking on Youtube if you understand a little Spanish. Burritos arguably aren't even Mexican, for crying out loud! Go a hundred miles south of the US border and there's nothing that even vaguely resembles what Americans call a burrito. It's a border region phenomenon.

As if only brown people are allowed to use tortillas? The act of accusing someone of "cultural appropriation" is segregation, pure and simple.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Make a burrito (or taco, or nasi goreng, or pad thai, or whatever) and enjoy it guilt-free.

You can do a thought experiment where some esoteric firmware modification results in an accident, but it's 1000x more likely that Joe Sixpack spaces out while driving, runs a red light, and crashes into a busload of kids. Once we've solved that problem, drunk driving, distracted driving, poor driver education, and thus eliminated 99.9% of accidents, then it might make sense to have a debate about those pesky car modders or edge-case Tesla autopilot failures that are responsible for the last 0.01%.
