> humans have been eating for literally tens of thousands of years is causing depression and widespread health concerns

They literally haven't eaten meat, dairy and eggs 3-5x per day. This is a new phenomenon in the last half-century. And to go back even further, our biochemistry is millions of years old, and is frugivorous in nature. We have no physical adaptations to eating meat. We only started doing it recently as a means of survival when humans left their tropical niche.

> a controlled, healthy, low-calorie diet

Plant-based foods are naturally low in fat, which is calorie dense, so such a diet is in fact ideal for weight loss.
The way I read that is that developing complex life is even more contingent than 'just wait long enough'. Given what we know for sure, you need rather narrow concentrations of specific gasses at least.

That assumes that people left to their own free will and time would end up in a dismal state as the default. I’m not sure.

I’d love to see a proper analysis but there’s lots of evidence both ways. Some people with excess leisure would end up doing nothing. Some would work on hobbies. Some would start businesses or maybe participate in local government or something.

It might also be that, given enough time in a leisure society, people would adapt for better or worse.
It was very much an option. It's just that the political decision has been taken to send Assange to his fate in the US.

The UK government doesn't like Assange, and on top of that, they don't want to upset the Americans.
Nah. Activist shareholders don't look the other way. If they see a profit opportunity then they won't hesitate to execute a leveraged buyout and sack all the senior executives. This has happened many, many times. When it comes to making money, any notion of class loyalty died in the 1980's.

Show HN: Typosaur, the interactive spell-checker for modern web
Hello,
I'd like to showcase a project I've been working for some time now

The project is called Typosaur and is an interactive spell-checker that provides spelling, grammar and style suggestions

Typosaur is a great fit for Blogs, Documentation and Marketing sites and also supports Single-Page-Apps

Typosaur is currently in Beta and I'd love to hear your feedback!

The API is also available in preview, shoot an e-mail hello@typosaur.com if you want to get access!

---

My goal is to free the web from embarrassing spelling mistakes and improve writing without the need of dedicated writing teams. If you think you can help us achieve this goal (financially or with your talent), I'd love to hear more from you!

Thanks for your attention!
> Why would time change people's opinions?

Because it was pretty clear that after he made his points clear it didn't line up with what the media hitmen who were seeking to create: click bait rage-material.

After his rounds on several podcasts, Rogan being the most prominent, I looked into what was being said and it was absurd that they had derived this conclusion because of what I had listed above. The woke mob is to blame, sure, but it was the deliberate framing and inaction of the tech community as a whole who I think should bear some responsibility. I think the Bay Area 'dating scene' (or the lack thereof) is a direct reflection of the adverse effects of having a a heavy male bias within the tech Industry.

> My initial opinion was formed on what the media said. Then a couple years later that I read it for myself and saw that it did not align with the narrative.

I'd like to believe this retrospective view is a lot more common than it is, so I'm glad you honestly detailed your experience with the matter which I think is more common for those who'd bother to step out of their own echo chambers. But since people seldom these days, it's a total outlier.
I know it's annoying when we moderate HN this way and the project happens to be one that you care about, but it will make more sense if you realize that (a) we have to moderate for the general case—i.e. if we didn't have this rule of thumb, the front page would fill up with release announcements of popular projects, of which there are many every day; and (b) the issue with duplication isn't really about the article/announcements—it's about the resulting HN discussions.

That is, it's not primarily about the diff between announcement N and announcement N+1. It's about the diff between HN thread N and thread N+1. Comments in these threads are almost invariably generically about the project as a whole. You can see that with e.g. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31764384 in the current thread - which is a fine comment in its own right. There's nothing wrong with these threads! The only problem is that we have to regulate how much repetition of them there is.
I really feel this way. The two Apple products I own are an iPhone, and an M1 Mac Mini. The hardware is good. The software often thwarts things I'm trying to do and pisses me off greatly.

At least on the Mac Mini though, I can disable SIP and go crazy, or install Asahi Linux. iPhone is gimped really hard and even a $100/yr developer license doesn't really help you that much; you're still not getting basic WebM in Safari or alternate browser engines.

I know it's popular to not like Android for being janky, not as privacy-respecting, fragmented, or simply because of the fact that it's Google, but I don't really mind Android that much, even given all of its faults. It's mildly annoying but at the end of the day it feels like there's very little that I simply can't do. I mostly use Google devices, so I can always root and flash other ROMs.
Oh that is awesome! Yup this is exactly what it is doing, didn't see it before!
Everyone is bound to do even less in the end. Most don't aspire to it.
Visa has also has value because it adds trust to the system. You can contest your charges and a lot of the fees go towards keeping that trust. Credit cards have tons of abuse but it’s backed by a level of insurance. I stopped using crypto because the fees were so high, it wasn’t simple (unless you use an exchange) and doesn’t come with that trust. Even the exchanges themselves fail because they are gambling with customer cash essentially. It’s like if my bank decides to put all the cash it was holding for me into Iraqi dinar because it has a feeling it was going to go up.

I'm not sure it's that high. They probably have AML regulations in multiple countries on their backs, and they are dealing with tons of tiny payments not a few big ones. For each tiny payment there's some chance of a problem occurring which will require support time.

This article claims Patreon's true cut is not the advertised 8-10%, but *86-83%*?? Surely this can't be true? We would have heard more people complaining about it by now.
> 1. Both couple partners have to work in the past only one.

Why is it so? I always hear that. I am not married yet but I keep it a little challenge to myself to one day disprove that.

I believe with a clever lifestyle of not spending on useless stuff and moving into a cheap region one can easily make that work.

So I say, brazenly and naively ...
That’s silly. OSX and iOS have anti-malware tooling built in without incurring such liability. Same for malware scanners; Malwarebytes, Norton, McAfee etc. don’t accept liability for what their scans find.
Thanks for this wonderful suggestion! I would love to know your thoughts about techniques for enabling a "documentation-centric" culture as well as how to write good documentation. I have realized over the years that it is definitely something that makes or breaks functioning teams. When people want to transition from one team to the other to break some monotony in their work, its great to have documentation that helps a new person onboard. Solves a lot of issues!

> We aren’t that kind of people. I’d never be convinced otherwise.

Isn't this kind of a dangerous sentiment, which precludes rational thought? I remember people stating the same sentiment about, say, the American people electing Trump.

I'm not entirely convinced the 'kind' of people is relevant when a government makes a decision to go to war. And once it's in swing, you have no choice but to believe it's a just war, because your country isn't the kind of people to start an unjust one.
That'd make sense, if trains like the RRX didn't support 220km/h at an entry height of 520mm and long-distance platforms didn't have a height of 960mm already.
Article states the opposite is true. Small creators, do not receive decent amount of discoverability on Patreon. I guess same true for Apple AppStore.
> Not yet. In the history of life on Earth, this has happened once.

1) That we know about.

2) Not unlike startups vs. established business, any newly emerging "eukaryotes" have to out-compete the already-evolved incumbents, which are already quite good at harnessing energy. You're much more likely to find success in business than in an entirely new evolutionary branch, though I doubt biological "gray goo" is outright impossible [1].

Comparing Apple's hardware to shitty plastic laptops is a false equivalence though. Once you spend Apple money on hardware, you get much better stuff in return.

Apple is perceived to be high quality because they only serve the high end. When you compare ecosystems, you should at least compare the same market segment. There are also market segments that Apple has no products in (convertibles, for examples, or sub 600 dollar laptops).

Candy crush hasn't been installed by default for years now.

I don’t think Seth Green is alt-right. I think he’s Jewish as well. I’m assuming ‘frens’ lost a lot of it's meaning, I doubt most of the people using it know it’s origins, and that includes Seth Green. It would be a similar infraction to Katy Perry using a Pepe meme.

No, creator keeps 86-83%, so ~85c from every dollar

Assange is an Australian journalist who was outside the United States when he published this material.

It means digital money, controlled by a country's central bank the value of which is tied to the country's fiat currency. Of course it requires cryptography to make it secure, but it's not like Bitcoin which is not centrally controlled and the value of which is not tied to any fiat currency.

That's not really similar to Redbean; it requires an OS-compatible Python be installed on the system (whereas Redbean is a single binary artifact that runs anywhere). Plus Redbean can substitute for nginx, whereas you should never try doing that with the built in Python server.
It might have been corrected ?

it currently reads to me as 14~17, which is not great, but not that high either depending on the exact case.

Sure! Sorry I need clarify - my logic programming experience has nothing to do with Python. It was one of those times when I was looking to learn something different and so chanced upon Prolog. I did tutorials in SWI-Prolog and was fascinated by it - I did not have any idea that a language like this existed! The fact I know now that something like this exists and is very effective at a class of problems is sufficient for me! I also dabbled with Google's Logica over a weekend to get familiar with it.

Sorry if this wasnt what you were looking for :)
Are you aware of some of the recent progress? Did you have a look at the Gato model and Flamingo by DeepMind, or at the chat logs of models like chinchilla and lambda? Or Alphacode? This is all from this year.

I think your point is that all these models are still somewhat specialized. At the same time, it appears that the transformer architecture works well with images, short video and text at the same time in the Flamingo model. And gato can perform 600 tasks while being a very small proof of concept. It appears to me that there is no reason to believe that it won't just scale to every task that you give it data for if it has enough parameters and compute.
It’s not just (or even primarily) discoverability.

I will never type in my credit card to give some random app developer $1.99. I will frequently click buy on an app in the App Store.

Same is likely true for Patreon. Even if I found your videos or podcast by some other means, the fact you can mention “Thank to to my patrons” means I can easily find you (not discover you) on Patreon and subscribe.

I have a similar experience. I used to live in the suburbs, disliking the mess of road and skyscraper construction in the city. I moved to the city, and what enabled that was that the target neighborhood was full of new buildings going up.

Slowly, I realized that those two experiences are connected: Because those suburban houses have existed for 50 years and will probably remain unchanged for 50 more, all the big construction projects end up concentrated in a few areas downtown. It would fairer if the developments were spread throughout the city.

Patreon is a business and I don't begrudge them the ability to charge customers for their service (though I think it's pretty buggy). Before Patreon, I did not subscribe to a single podcast. After Patreon, I subscribe to 3-5 at various times. I subscribe to a couple other standalone products but the bar is certainly higher as the value they must provide is greater to get over having another subscription on another platform.

So I think Patreon likely does help individuals get business, even if they aren't out advertising on your behalf. That said, I agree the fee does seem high, given it is largely payment processing (and a simple media player) and we know what Stripe charges for that. I think they will probably be at risk from higher quality entrants like Substack who is moving into podcasting as well.
So it basically reinforces the many-world interpretation, which makes perfect sense, and it’s the most mathematically minimal of all too.

Resorting to some kimd of retro-causality mechanism really shows how many people are uncomfortable with many-worlds.

And many-worlds (though likely only scratching the surface of reality) is pretty much in the vein of panpsychism as it mirors the branching-out biology does with life/consciousness. That’s what I call a tasty correspondence of the universe

We need a new mathematical framework that goes beyond spacetime and amplituhedron https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplituhedron (from which more re-interpretations can happen, especially ones that can encapsulate consciousness more than just “an observer” (or worst leading to absurdity like the quantum suicide experiment https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_suicide_and_immortal... which definitely played a role in affecting Hugh Everett’s self-abusive lifestyle leading to his very early death at 51, as well as the suicide of his young daughter

I think you mean a lot more plastic crap, right? For a PC laptop of the same price (eg Lenovo X1), I find that they are a lot more flimsy than a aluminum unibody construction. In fact, I mostly moved to Apple to get away from plastic.

If I’m wrong and you have specific examples, let me know. But the last time I checked, PC quality price per price was still pretty bad compared to Apple.

You're suggesting that the official, public statement from the COO regarding the email activity was false? No chance. There are laws regarding email retention. The company stands to lose a lot while gaining little by releasing a false statement like that.
There's no discoverability anywhere, save if you get into a new platform super early. There's just too many things.

Most creators who have "made it" (whatever that may be) should work on setting up their own website with their own payment processing and encourage fans to use it, less for the additional money and more for the security against single-income flows.
