As great as that would be, putting more emphasis on organic search results would be one of the biggest pivots in company history. Of the countless updates they've made to the search results page I'm not sure if a single one made organic results more visible.
This could be interesting. I feel like the problem with MMOs that give you too much freedom is how players with more time will just completely dominate everyone else within days of any new content launching. Also, in my experience bad/unfun behavior in general gets worse the more populated an MMO is (FFXIV being a nice exception), and this solution could help keep traffic down. The only problem is that no dev trying to make money would ever time-limit their players.
What I love about zines specifically is that they are easy to make. Anyone can easily print one via copy machine on a very low budget, allowing a broader audience of people to author something unique compared to other publishing media. The barrier is incredibly low, but also just high enough that most people don't end up doing it unless they have some content they are passionate about printing.
The rate limit is unlikely to cause a problem. Google has been crawling the web since its very start, and the internal services which fetch resources from external web servers are extremely resilient. Some request fails? Some request is slow? It's not going to slow down other requests. Maybe these services aren't being used for Go, but the expertise is on tap.

(These kinds services are also supposed to rate-limit their requests.)
They could do it similar to Go. Instead of "facebook/react" it could be "facebook.com/react" in "package.json".
Yeah, good point.

In my case, I tried starting a company and failed. The learnings I gained helped me secure my next job. Leading up to the company failing though, it was more a less a year of misery.

I ran a marketing agency and this is the problem with SEO. No one really knows what works. Sure, we know what works right now, but a new update might completely change that. And worse, you might get penalized because Google decided that what it used to think was great (and worthy of top rankings) is now suddenly not kosher.

You can do that Google tells you (“create great content”) but you still have to get it found. Unlike social media, this isn’t always a space where you can make the content exciting enough that it gets “discovered” through word of mouth. Not a lot of entertaining content pieces for “affordable door repairs seattle”

Leaving this industry has done wonders for my stress levels. There was constant anxiety that you’d wake up one day and find that your rankings have tanked overnight.

In terms of effort, a couple of engineers worked on the app part-time for a few weeks. A Stripe App is the best way to handle permissions on behalf of a user, plus it gives Render more visibility in their marketplace.
I've really liked this essay and think it's getting at something essential, but at the same time I think some of the conclusions aren't well supported. I heartily agree that a principle part of programming is building, maintaining, and sharing our understanding of the systems. I don't see why that implies that there are no concrete methodologies that could help us do that, and I don't think the essay does a good job of making the link.
Seems like brk is the worse choice when implementing your buffer pool though. Especially if you want your DBMS to work on BSD.
I get your metaphor, but I think it falls down because "write once, deploy anywhere" was a slogan for Java and it never really fulfilled that promise.

And yes, like anything in life there are top-quality options which tend to be more expensive and lower-quality options which fit a smaller budget. MindNode is a lovely app and worth paying for IMO.

Absolutely, and I agree, however,.... it necessitates that the user use or understand "channels". When I went to your site my first thought was "what the hell's a channel?" ;-)

But yeah, for whatever percentage of youtube users use channels, I see this having a lot of use. My totally unsolicited advice is that you'll have to find some way to remove the channel requirement. Perhaps suggesting channels based on the search terms. (I've seen your other comments about adding features to a paid version)

I was thinking this same game. I quit playing starcraft/warcraft etc, because it is so important how quickly you can play and most of your focus is on the micro of your army, rather than how strategic you plan you base. While northgaurd is a very strategic city builder/resource management type with just enough fighting to keep everything interesting. Very small armys (12 is a very large army) so micro during battle is slower, less important at most for a few minutes. Putting the priority on how you have planned your base/resources. A much welcomed change in rts games.
https://gettingthingsdone.com/what-is-gtd/

The five basic steps of GTD:

1. Capture

2. Clarify

3. Organize

4. Reflect

5. Engage

(2) and (4), in particular, deal with whether the actions are worth doing along with the when and where of doing them. Which is covered in all the decent summaries I've read and the book itself.
And then we have "tenant screening services" which give major negative marks for things like being taken to court for eviction, even if it was years ago and even if the judgment was in your favor.

These are, of course, not covered by the Fair Credit Reporting Act, so nobody is required to tell you what's on your report or allow you to dispute it, nor do they even have to tell you they used the report in denying you an apartment.
Here's some examples that we use:

- Instagram Posts + Stories

- Weekly Email to Mailing List subscribers

- Subscription for Free Delivery/Benefits (like Amazon Prime)

There are a lot of people that come direct as well or through Google searches for our brand name, especially repeat customers (about 70% of our customers have ordered before). These people can be word of mouth, ads we take out in other publications, non-sponsored blog posts from others etc.

Asset valuation is a rich pre-existing field that doesn't need to be reinvented. The real cash-equivalent value of this app is, of course, the market value you could get trying to sell it, but that just offloads the value estimate to the potential buyer(s). The computation is extremely straightforward for a perpetuity, which is where the estimate here is coming from. At a 4% annual discount rate, a perpetuity that pays $500 a month forever has a net present value of $150,000.

However, as others have hinted at, assuming this app will continue to generate $500 a month forever at roughly the same risk premium as a perpetuity from any remotely reputable seller is dubious at best. Major banks and insurers that have existed for several centuries have histories of selling instruments like these that actually have paid out their promised coupon value for many decades and even centuries in some cases. In contrast, the Apple App Store has existed for almost 14 years. The 5/3/1 strength program has existed for 13 years.

What are the chances this app can generate the same revenue for the next 30 years? You can't rely on just keeping the existing users due to the way lifters tend to program-hop eventually. Anyone doing 5/3/1 today is unlikely to be doing it in 30 years. Then you have to factor in the possibility of competition. I'm kind of surprised the author of the 5/3/1 books has never bothered to commission an app and apparently only distributes official spreadsheets for generating a program template and workout log. If he ever does, any unofficial app seems unlikely to survive.

Not to take away from the work. I think this is the right idea. The developer wanted something that didn't exist and made it. Whether or not you ever acquire a single customer other than yourself, I think that is worth doing. But if anyone in this comment thread truly thinks it is worth $150,000, offer him $150,000 and I'm sure he'll be glad to sell.
> If you assume the Tesla had a 80 kwh battery, the whole test does not make any sense

It does have an 80 kWh battery. Again, you're confusing usable capacity and total capacity. Your table is wrong. You're comparing a Model 3 Performance's usable capacity with the MEB cars' total capacity.

> there is no way in hell the model 3 does not beat the ID4 in this test unless it was conducted in bad faith

Maybe this will help you. Here's a range test of a Model 3 Performance with the 82 kWh battery. Note that he measures the usable capacity at 76 kWh:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sj3vUh5RqMc

A similar test in an ID.4 GTX. Measured at 75 kWh usable:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFz2mz5GOL0

The actual kWh you get out of the battery depends on a variety of factors like driving speed, temperature, battery condition and age, etc.
I love the "too expensive" button. I'm the sort of person who'd probably want to test a dozen variations of that, half of them being jokes, and try to figure out exactly why it works. Do you know how many of the full price buyers ever click the button and find out it has a discount?
Gadget wise I've been really delighted with the new Playdate console in a way I haven't been by technology in a long time. It's simple but so much of it is designed with care, and the third party game ecosystem is really taking off. I'm a few weeks into the game release schedule, and they are fun, but I'm spending an inordinate amount of time on some of the third party games.
One of the challenges with this is that technically the TOS between a creditor and the CRA forbids the practice of "pay for delete". So you may get lucky, but oftentimes, you may not.

> I am sure you would agree, given the definition, it is Un-American.

Why are you sure? What definition of "American" are you referring to? Do you claim authority to state what are America's values?

It sounds like you insist that we obey the founding fathers' wishes about what constitutes the nation of the USA, grounded in some nebulous-if-real sense of "national identity and culture". Do you actually know what their positions are on matters of resource distribution, immigration, or healthy democracy?

These kind of cases can be streamlined by law firms.

The GP I replied (summarizing the artice): "Haiti had a number of structural differences that would have prevented it from developing even if France didn't force Haiti to pay for its freedom."

This is not saying, "reparations weren't responsible for Haiti's underdevelopment". Money paid is economic opportunities lost. France was benefiting from the payments and Haitians were suffering.

The argument being made is that this is either insignificant or OK because if France had not done this, Haiti would have been underdeveloped some other way.

It's pretty exactly analogous to thief that steals from you on Friday and when confronted on Monday says "I'm not responsible for you being broke, you would have lost the money some other way". That's sort reprehensible even if it's true. Let I repeat even if it's true.
The Last Night https://www.reddit.com/r/thelastnight/
Yes, this is similar to my intermediate list above (probably should call it "Backlog"). These are things I must do - just not now.

For the "Maybe", to be frank, I just stopped updating it. Instead I now have a sort of bucket list: Things I'd really like to do before I die. Even if I can't do all, I should be able to do quite a bit of these. It's basically a "higher priority" Maybe list. The idea is when a random thought pops up into my head ("Write a blog post on X"), I ask myself "Does this belong in the bucket list?" If not: "Wouldn't my time be better spent on the bucket list?" If yes, I just discard the thought. Sure, it'll pop into my head often, but why bother adding it to my "Maybe" list if I can't be bothered to review that huge list?
I'm writing a component library[1] on top of SwiftUI and while there are ton of unsolved problems in SwiftUI, the separation of concern allows for much more productive workflows than were ever commonplace in UIKit.

We're dropping into UIKit land quite frequently but for the user of the API, that remains implementation detail and while likely change as SwiftUI advances.

Ironically, a "Stock iOS" style app like Mail or Contacts is much harder to pull off with SwiftUI than an app like AirBnB that brings has its own design aesthetic and establishes its own conventions – cooperating closely with your designers and keeping them aware of what's easy/hard is a much better use of your time than trying to rewrite a pixel perfect `UISearchController` clone.

That said, navigation remains a complete mess and I hope that's a top priority for iOS 16.

> Java memory mapping having insane issues on every platform

I'm very interested, what issues? I've occasionally considered using mmap for a few things, but never had justification to. I'm curious what issues I might have run into.

Did you use JNI/JNA to mmap or via RandomAccessFile?
Gameplay-wise, this variant seems pretty interesting! I would certainly give it a try over boring Catan.

> It became clear, at least to me, a white person playing this game in the U.S. in the early 2010s, that every game of Settlers of Catan re-tells the American myth of White European settlers stumbling upon a fertile land that was theirs by right, encountering no meaningful resistance, and acting on behalf of God and Country to develop economies, settlements, and cities in this “New World.” My first thought was to never play Settlers of Catan again. But this response seemed inadequate: while it might solve the problem for me, it would not equip anyone else to wrestle with these troubling issues,

FWIW, this is flat out bad historical knowledge. If you can't leave the fantasy setting well enough alone, the closest historical analogues to Catan would actually be European islands like the Canary Islands, the Channel Islands, or even the Azores. And if you play the Cities & Knights expansion, it should be clear that the setting is squarely pre-Renaissance medieval Europe - with abbeys and guilds and viking invaders.

Rephrased: “have you thought about paying Google for ‘protection’ against their updates”
Didn't we learn on HN a day or two ago, that eating vitamin D doesn't help?
In response to your edit: nothing in this comment - which is the one that's downvoted - says anything about existing supplements. It just says that we should all get our Vitamin D by hanging out outside - which, as others have already pointed out, is nonsense for much of the world and thus has been downvoted justly.

As to why existing supplements are inadequate: well, because at the end of the day huge swaths of the population are Vitamin D deficient. Plain and simple. Those people should be taking supplements, but aren't. Many of those same people eat tomatoes regularly, and this will help them; it's like water fluoridation. You can moralize and lecture about individual responsibility or whatever, but a positive outcome is a positive outcome.

I’m not sure how WoW isn’t/wasn’t just ticking off boxes? That’s all MMORPG’s ever basically. “Go here, kill boars, bring me 5 of their tusks. By the way it’s a 25% drop rate so really you’re killing ~20. Oh and they’re often by themselves across a large area. Oh and other players need the same amount too so you’re competing for the kills. Oh and there are baby boars harassing you that don’t count. Oh and there’s no quest marker until you’re mini map can see it so it’s going to take you 10min of wandering around a featureless field before you know you’re in their spawn area.

As obnoxious as I’m being, the thrust of basically any MMORPG is grinding hours of boring tasks to get minutes of awesome time with the fruits of your labor. That’s how they make you stick around - roadblock after roadblock after roadblock. You remove the grind (d3 auction house) and you remove your players.

> " citing, among other factors, the high cost of the water and lack of local demand for it, the risks to marine life and the possibility of flooding in the area as sea levels rise. "

This sucks for people living in California because water shortages are only going to get worse, but without some major advancements in technology it's probably too late to fix that in a reasonable way.

A lot of people living along the coasts are going to have to accept that they're on borrowed time and eventually they'll be forced inland. Development and investment in areas where we expect major storms and frequent flooding to occur just doesn't make sense. Climate change really doesn't give me much hope for the future of CA or for a lot of the western US where desertification and high temperatures could put real limitations on those areas sustainably supporting large populations.

If folks living in California ever get sick of the rolling blackouts/brownouts, the wildfires, the lack of clean water, the high temperatures, the earthquakes, and the public defecation they should probably be looking at moving into "flyover country" where those things are very uncommon. There are still plenty of places left that have lots of water, power, and reasonable outdoor temperatures.
Ask HN: Does anyone feel discouraged by large AI models?
The progress in large AI models like GPT-3 and Dall-e 2 is extremely impressive and exciting. Progress is happening at a blistering pace. So much so that it is easy for me to imagine a future now where all meaningful innovation is something that comes from AI.

This is especially evident to me when I see the kind of art created by dall-e 2. It is flat-out astounding. It seems like there won't be a need for artists in the future. At least commercially. I'm dead serious. Yes there will probably still be a market for art that is known to be created by a human, but not because of some difference in quality.

I understand that there is and never will be anything stopping people from creating. But how could anyone be expected to refine their artistic skills when they could ask a large AI model to realize their artistic vision? It will soon be simple to basically describe the world you imagine, and have an AI do the heavy lifting of creation for you. Why then, would you ever learn to refine your brush strokes, or think about how a sentence should be composed?

In a broader sense though AI will overcome every human skillset, and to me all that seems left is consumption. Because AI will eclipse any need to learn how to create (to an extent that is not even humanly possible), all that will be left to do is consume what is created.

I get that this scenario is potentially still decades away. But imagine you spend the next 20 years becoming a true master at something for it to become trivial. I think this is a unique problem for humans because we are designed to create / build. Without an outlet for that, where does that leave us?
Or worse, those UI affordances may change over time. With the swipe down behavior you mentioned, on iOS, I used to just swipe down from the center of the top of the iPad to see the notification shade. A recent iOS behavior made it so swiping down from the center now causes the app window to be dragged. Ugh! Now I have to relearn to find a spot slightly to the right to pull down to view the shade.
