Is your business model capable of sustaining a paywall of the most useful value, by eliding the information? Your affiliate links still point to your review effort, but the actual top ranking information is behind the paywall.

Make it a variation on the "businesses pay for business-class stuff, amateurs get the free stuff" model.

For the top say, 20% ranks, it is behind a paywall. People will know which vendors are members of the set of the top 20%, but not their ordinal collection. The bottom 80% members of the set's ordinal collection is displayed. If I'm looking for a site to store Grandma's cat pictures, the bottom 80% is probably good enough.

You could also tilt the paywall so free only reveals who NOT to do business with, and who ranks at the bare minimum acceptability.

You can have the paywall only enforce an embargo, instead of all historical results. Say some period beyond which the businesses that can afford to pay you will not care for the results, like a year or whatever.

You can have a "free hour(s)" once a review cycle just before when you publish where the in-the-know crowd can get the results for the newest review cycle, tied to a YouTube livestream, where you do a monetized Q&A.

There are lots more variations to ponder, but I can't help but think there must be more useful ways to slice and dice the valuation of the information here, and monetize in tranches like finance and entertainment do, instead of all in one go.

Good golly, that 0.35% figure really puts the patch set into perspective

A library I'm working on is 7000 LOC which seems pretty sizable, but 0.35% of that is 25 LOC.

The Linux patch set is actually tiny
It doesn't just have to be for application-specific performance though. You can also define the cost function to be to minimize the floating point error of a specific set of codes, which is what egg-herbie does. I can see throwing a custom pass on code that says "make this be the most floating point stable version it can find" as a nice quick fix for cases where application scientists without a lot of numerical analysis experience hit cases which traditionally would've required a lot more thought and care.

Another application we have in mind is to do similar linear algebra transformations to XLA. For example, sequential matrix-vector operations (A*v1 + A*v2) can be more optimally be applied as a single BLAS3 matrix-matrix call (A*[v1;v2]). Those kinds of rules can be very easily structured as an E-graph, and doing it this way would make it very inviting to mathematicians to extend and maintain the rulesets.

Both of those are cases where you may not want those passes to always be running, but they are super helpful in many numerical applications. And there's a lot more where that came from. Forward-mode AD can be implemented quite naturally this way. And there's a few more complex examples I'll hold in my back pocket until they are completed.
I’ve been doing this for a while, and it’s a neat trick. I noticed the same uptick in stackoverflow clones recently as some other commenters here have, and quickly blocked them too via this method.

It’s worth pointing out, however, that the blocking happens client-side, and that these spam results often end up taking up multiple results slots. This means that sometimes you will get an empty or close-to-empty Google results page.

Ideally, I’d like to be able to configure Google itself to never return me results from particular domains instead.
Just tell them it’s familiar. Depends on the company, but they can often tell. If you blast through a tough question and then struggle on easier ones, it’ll show up in hiring committee (or equivalent).

It could easily cost you the offer if they think you’re being dishonest.

If you say it’s familiar and they ask you to do it anyway, just solve it very quickly and thoroughly. They’ll give you points for your performance and probably ask you another.

Ask HN: How to Move on from Google?
Anyone got a resource for how to move off Google into using another browser, even if passwords etc are all saved in Google? I've been wanting to make the transition, but not even sure where to start. I've experimented with Brave, but Google has become so integrated I to everything I do (tis the plan, I know), that I'm just not sure how to pull it off. Any ideas?

I'm sorry, but at 7500 words, this is more of a novella than a summary.

The summary at the end of the book is shorter than this blog post and contains the big takeaways.

I love this book as much as the other person does, but there are much better reads to go deeper into some of the inspiration:

Ask HN: Gettr – The Twitter Killer?
Hello!

I recently saw Joe Rogan, Bret Weinstein, Dr Robert Malone and others switch to https://gettr.com/

What are everyone's thoughts here?

IMO seems like network effects are building on that particular platform.
My first web job was building websites for a rinky-dink SEO company. My boss had zero qualms churning out trash content while trying to game the system. How can Google fight an infinite sea of these operations? I'm not sure who's to blame at this point.

Like many HN users, I assume, my method for finding useful info online has always been to find a forum. You can't monetize a forum post without it being ignored or discouraged by the community so until that changes forums will always provide the most consistently helpful content on the net.

Obviously these companies are making enough money off the segment of the population that does not behave this way to make it worth their while. My question is how big is this segment and will it slowly dissolve as older generations pass and more grow up with the internet? Or will there always be enough people susceptible to this spam that the internet will never get better?
I'd recommend to anyone running Linux that they do exactly that - disable unprivileged eBPF. For a server you shouldn't need that, you can just drop privs for your service after setting up the filter.

They should probably put it behind its own capability like CAP_LOAD_EBPF.

Forcing signed ebpf will also help though.
> I feel like lots of people forgot about 2007/08 and the impact on so many people around the world.

To be clear, banks did not cause the 2008 economic implosion. If you run through root cause analysis, what comes out on top as the trigger event for the avalanche was US politicians distorting markets through legal action that enabled giving mortgages to people who would have never been able to buy a home otherwise. Sounds altruistic, yet, in reality, it ended-up being a destructive force. I remember a documentary where they interviewed various people who bought homes around that time. This one woman worked at McDonalds, essentially made minimum wage and was able to buy a $500K home due to laws that allowed such distortions as "no docs" loans with full federal guarantees.

That and other legal components that eventually resulted in the creation of derivatives where banks could package small fractions of thousands of mortgages into investment vehicles. The game, then, was to write mortgages, slice, dice and package them into CDO's and sell them as quickly as possible at a profit.

Sure, one could blame banks and investment firms for this. No doubt. However, I think the important element to understand here is that, if the government tells you that, not only it is legal to do these things, but they actually want you to --because they want everyone to own a home-- well, what do you do?

Not a good analogy, but, on our roads we have speed limits set by government action. Around where I live it's 65 miles per hour. People drive anywhere between 60 and 80. Lots of people (most?) drive well above the limit. In other words, there's an argument that says it is human nature to push things a bit. Absent enforcement, some people would drive 100+ on a regular basis.

The genesis of the 2008 crisis is related to the removal of financial speed limit signs by government. Not only that, they also effectively said "we want you to drive at speeds we all know are dangerous and irresponsible". Politicians got votes when people were happy because they could buy homes. When the house of cards they created collapsed, we all ended-up paying for it.

I don't blame banks. There is no way in hell 2008 would have happened --no way-- without government removing the speed limit signs. This business of buying votes with handouts has destroyed many countries. The 2008 economic implosion was just one example of this. Latin America and other nations have lots of examples in their history of governments using money and economic policy to buy short-term happiness from the masses in exchange for votes...only to drop them on their heads after the fact.
I've worked clinically and taught this in professional training programs. It's a classical clinical decision making problem.

The solution is fairly straightforward I think: require the test companies to report the posterior probability of the illness given the test result. Probably with some kind of uncertainty interval.
Yeah, I was also frustrated. Tesla always been in the top. And boom, suddenly it stoped been there. I don't believe in reincarnation.
All my peers who owns tesla are the most happy customers every, including me. For 2 years owning Model Y I asked for service twice. Once i damaged the car, they came to my backyard, I found it super convenient.

Second time I request a retrofit a speaker from a newer models and hardware + work cost me $100 usd. Engineers did all the job at my home while i was working. I only clicked from the App open the car . Oh well, consumer report doesn't count this things that makes consumers happy.

Consumer reports also doesn't count that after two years of ownership i received tons of new features and my car still feels fresh. I can put here a huge list. Since I bought the car :

- my range improved

- winter regenerative brakes improved

- automatic blindspot cameras after turn

- improved climate control, especially automatic seat heat

- more music/video sources

- dramatically improved autopilot

- view cameras from phone

- updated for free hardware for temperature measurements during one of the
unrelated visits

- improved charging time ( faster)

- charging network doubled

- automatically synced profiles to my second tesla

- better charging scheduling, that works well with my local electricity provider incentives, saved me ~600 usd already

- far better navigation included way points

- better security when backing up ( sound)

- improved auto wipers, that become 100% reliable( more a fix)

- i don't include tons of fun stuff like games, easter eggs etc...

This are only improvements that are useful to me. The actual list is waay bigger.

Oh well... someone paid this journalists to portrait it in a bad way. But that basically shows how vulnerable is the system. You pay 10-20 journalists and boom, you got your marketshare of people who trust to some bs like consumer reports.
"almost certainly"... So without evidence you conclude that young people are dying at a higher rate NOT because of the deadly global pandemic. QED.

"Neurodivergent" is becoming a subcultural identifier. Ive seen some tiktoks where the creator makes a statement like "the neurodivergent urge to <common human behavior>" or "neurodivergent people love <sensation that most people like>"

It's very odd IMO. Feels a bit like religious evangelism.
Price went up 5k. Depending on supplier changes it could have been a decent margin boost. Finally starting to cost closer to the value of the car…
I'm not really seeing it. In most of the workflows I've used, one person is responsible for maintaining most of the document including the bibliography. The other coauthors will add in notes requesting to add in a new item, etc.

Zotero is used primarily for managing the PDF library, the actual writing will happen in Word, LateX, etc. The reference list produced by Zotero is just text.

I don't see any real requirement that everyone working on a project would need to actually use Zotero, though I guess it would be handy to keep a coordinated shared library of papers.
> Still, the basic eval command looks remarkably similar in lisp vs TCL.

The primary difference is whether arguments are evaluated before (Scheme/Lisp) or after (Tcl) being sent to the function/command.

The deferred evaluation is what allows you to do things that you need macros for in other languages. (ie. you need deferred evaluation or macros to implement short-circuit operators, for example)

However, early Lisps had FEXPRs which also deferred evaluation. The late John Shutt built and entire Lisp called "Kernel" around the idea:

http://web.cs.wpi.edu/~jshutt/kernel.html

I strongly recommend a read through his PhD thesis:
https://www.wpi.edu/Pubs/ETD/Available/etd-090110-124904/

Unfortunately, his implementation isn't anywhere near as good as his conception. Other people have implemented it better.

A bit surprised no one's broached this question: At what point is it OK to leave your depressed partner?

I know someone who left his depressed spouse of over 25 years. He loved her and tried to make it work, but eventually chose happiness for himself, for the second half of his life. He left her alone and essentially friendless.

No easy answers there.

At the initial stages of the internet we sere building quality content without even thinking to “monetize” - just sharing things we were passionate about.

Until people pretend to monetize it will never work like that again.
Most of the problems facing the world today (climate change, inequality) can only be addressed with large communities of people working in concert.

By contrast, most of the communications technology out there right now is social media that has algorithms which encourage outrage over action, and division over community building.

I personally would love a not-for-profit tool to connect with like-minded folks and organize for social change, by region and by subject area, without all of the manipulation inherent in social media today.

The alternative is to take the same energy you'd spend on that one unlucky human being and spend it raising 3 healthy children who will go on to live full lives.

Parenting is an enormous time investment and families that take on the burden of raising disabled children almost universally reduce their family size. This is not a decision without cost, to those who lose their chance at life.

Imagine you can build 100 kernels per hour. If you increase build rate by 50%, you can now build 150 kernels per hour. If you decrease build time by 50%, you can now build 100 kernels per 30 minutes, or 200 kernels per hour, which is more impressive. This is the sort of thing you become pedantic about when you play a lot of videogames that do %-based things to your character's stats.
I think you'll be alright because you are very aware of your condition. That's really how I am too. I'm always checking in with myself like that song in The Big Lebowski - "The condition of my condition is good." There's aways Uber.

After I wrote my comment I thought of something weird. California sent me a tax bill every month. Every month I would ignore it and every month it would go up due to fines. Finally California siezed my bank account and cleaned it out, all $13,000, leaving me destitute. What I thought was weird was my reaction. I didn't care. I was watching it happen like watching a fly walk across the cieling - with complete indifference. So here's something else family can do - ask to see the bills.

You aren't "counting" the number of characters. You're making an encoding that includes that information, without the aggregation. The aggregation is irrelevant as is the order of duplicate characters.

I follow that up with knowledge of a large project that was started in Lisp (actually Scheme) that had to be converted to C# because the difficulty of finding experienced Scheme developers for the years of maintenance that would be expected was far more than the cost of converting to a language that's more "usable."

I notice this in car parts, 5 different websites all with the same catalogue. I think it's also how a lot of "influencers" start online stores. It's their face and brand but it's not their catalogue or inventory.

> it is no longer good enough to be number one. You have to be number 1 - 10.

I don't blame them, a lot of online store's business model hinges almost entirely on SEO, and Google can change their ranking overnight for just about any kind of arbitrary decision on ranking signals. Building in some redundancy is a smart move, but it's a pretty big red flag that the ecosystem and incentives are all twisted up.
> Twitter has the right to freedom of expression and freedom of association, and this gives them the perfect right to ban people from their platform if they don't agree with what people say

This is the legal analysis of how Twitter can do this, which I understand. But you keep asserting it as if it is some universal truth, without engaging with my actual arguments about the constructive result of such framework.

> a corporation cannot levy taxes, cannot jail people

Except that it can - you can sign a contract agreeing to some schedule of charges (called "taxes") or to have to spend time in a certain place (called "jail").

> cannot execute someone

The only reason you cannot sign a contract that allows for your execution as a consequence of default is because your bare ability to contract has been restricted by the larger government.

I think DID tiktok is different and more concerning than the other support-group style subcommunities.

DID is an extremely rare disorder, and all of the videos I've seen seem very performative. I think the majority of DID tiktok probably doesn't have DID, but they found that it gives them attention.

I definitely worry that performing a mental disorder for attention for a prolonged period could lead to actual disorders.
I'm sure the coroners reports are complete and accurate, but the way this has been portrayed in the media is as "overdoses" and hand waved as an opioid issue. The reality is more complex and the issue is beyond opioids.

Yes these are "overdoses" but when the contents of the drug is not truly what the drug user is told, the drug user has no way to know what the safe dose is of the drug they are using.

Drug use has become a game of russian roulette as no one has any knowledge of what is in the drugs and there's no real safe dosage.

https://www.investopedia.com/terms/q/quantitative-easing.asp

Quantitative easing (QE) is a form of unconventional monetary policy in which a central bank purchases longer-term securities from the open market in order to

increase the money supply and encourage lending and investment. Buying these securities

adds new money to the economy, and also serves to lower interest rates by bidding up fixed-income securities. It also expands the central bank's balance sheet.

I don't know why you don't think creating money and buying bonds and mortgage securities on the open market counts as money creation. Or if you're being particularly semantic about the mechanical flow of this money. None of these occur without the central bank changing digits in a database which magically allow new money to exist.
All of that is great but it has nothing to do with AML/KYC regulations.
