As I say, it doesn't need to be ethical.

On your comment: of course, no one is throwing punches at you. It's just advertising. You don't have to go to the website that has it on.

yep, this is the diagnosis I got as well. Unfortunately, adhd drugs are legal, but not mainstream or easy to come by in Eastern Europe.

Well that’s why. When you refuse to even listen/consider their argument, no one is going to argue with you. In addition, saying such a thing here gets you downvoted to oblivion. Doesn’t stop people from doing it; Just look at some of the other comments here.
I guess you always pay in cash. The amount of information which banks and card issuers collect about you is just tremendous. And unlike web ads, they know your real name, your address, your age ...

Not necessarily. He brings up the point that in Australia, newspapers are hiring pretty aggressively again, and the way the proposed US legislation is framed, the incentives for VC-owned media would shift from slashing to hiring and investing.

Ask HN: How do I/you prep for the energy crisis in EU?
As someone living in one of the countries in the North I can't say I am too alarmed by the looming energy crisis (maybe I have lived over too many crisis already and at some point this alarmism loses its meaning).

Having said that, I am interested on what measures others are taking to prepare for it? It's not like we can just store energy right? Stocking up on foods if the prices increase too much?

Things I've done were just to replace few older bulbs with LEDs and turn of some of the unnecessary appliances (like a second freezer).
It's popular to hate on React. I still like it, and much of the "dislikes" I hear come from not actually understanding React and using it in the "functional programming" way it was designed to be used in. Same with Redux.

Its mostly not true. Some people assume that all US policy is actually oil policy and that the $ is valuable because of petrol. Neither is really true.

Sure in the last 70 years oil was important to US in foreign policy but its far from the only or dominate factor in most of it.
That’s the one! Thank you for the text so I can cite it properly.
Ugh I remember the dependency problems. I think we worked around it by explicitly installing dependencies first. We did almost switch to poetry because of that, but it came down to "everyone is busy, lets just see how often it is a problem". Luckily we didn't run into it too many times, and they have since fixed it.
Fascinating to see the people doubling down on this as Renewables being a mistake, referencing the gas price in EU and Heatwaves in California.

In a decade I think you'll be able to clearly see how much sway fossil fuels had over your countries government by comparing the economic growth rates.

As we enter this stage, the economies coasting by and not doing the necessary investment are going to hit a wall, while those that planned ahead get the returns.
> Your argument is very weird. Most of the time, if you are in location without cellular data, it is that you don't even have a good cellular coverage. In that case, especially, people are used to always use wifi and so use WhatsApp, signal, telegram, Facebook, instead of unreliable sms.

I have WiFi only at home. At work i don't. Also there are shops where there is no WiFi nor cellular connection.
Even Reddit has a limit to how much it can be trusted. Marketers are savvy to the fact that people take purchasing advice from Reddit. Definitely need to be sure the community you're checking is active and aware enough to find and downvote out the shill posts.

But still it's better than reviews on Amazon and even from trusted professional reviewers. The reason being that with Reddit you can get the perspective of people who have owned the product for a while. Even if all of the reviews on Amazon were real they'd be biased towards the first days of the reviewer having the product. People don't tend to come back 2 years later and post a review.

Probabilistically it's not that implausible. Musk has what, one successful company he founded himself - SpaceX? The hyperloop is flop, the boring company is a flop too, so is SolarCity, and the sucessful one came with a lot of exceptionally great hires. I'd say empirically his skill at hiring competent people that are willing to work hard is higher than average, while his engineering skills don't seem to be particularly special.

1 out of 4 seems solidly probable to me.

I don't think advertising is harmful in general, and I think an ad-funded web is likely much better than a paywall-funded web. More: https://www.jefftk.com/p/why-i-work-on-ads
Paywalls are annoying because it forces you onto the few websites you pay for.

Maybe we need a platform where you pay some fixed amount of money per month and get access to many websites. At the end of the month you can decide how to split your money among the websites you used, defaulting to proportional to the amount of time you spent on the site.

The platform should be open so that anyone can add their website.
So is an explanation like this just incorrect? Or an oversimplification?

You are paying for it. Just not directly. You’re paying the advertiser with your attention, who then pays the website for the privilege to do so. Whether you think that’s OK or not is a different issue, but you are paying, even if you’re not the customer.

Just because you don’t directly pay for something doesn’t mean you don’t do so indirectly. For example, Facebook makes almost all their revenue from ads, but advertisers won’t pay them if users don’t visit. So by visiting Facebook (if you do), you’re keeping them afloat.

Companies do use consumer scores under the innocuous term of Digital Safety and Trust to determine the service you receive.

https://www.nytimes.com/2019/11/04/business/secret-consumer-...

Non paywall: https://archive.ph/FKQ6d

The article does mention use cases for fraud, however it also states that the consumer score can

...determine how long each of us waits on hold when calling a business, whether we can return items at a store, and what type of service we receive. A low score sends you to the back of the queue; high scores get you elite treatment.

The article also mentions usage by social / dating applications such as OkCupid, which would indicate that a score can have an impact on your social life.

On one hand, I do understand the need for fraud mitigation. On the other hand, I've had to deal with the negative consequences of incorrect data provided by companies such as LexisNexis, how you can't fix it, and the impacts it has.

It's true that transition used to be more strictly paced and psychologically supervised. For children especially, this is no longer true. The governments of Sweden and the United Kingdom have formally investigated and documented the phenomena I described. The same phenomena are now visible across the US. The evidence is ample and verifiable. Here is the UK National Health Service's Cass Review:

https://cass.independent-review.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/0...

Some highlights:

>Within the Dutch Approach, children and young people with neurodiversity and/or complex mental health problems are routinely given therapeutic support in advance of, or when considered appropriate, instead of early hormone intervention. Whereas criteria to have accessed therapeutic support prior to starting hormone blocking treatment do not appear to be integral to the current NHS process.

>Evidence on the appropriate management of children and young people with gender incongruence and dysphoria is inconclusive both nationally and internationally.

>If pubertal sex hormones are essential to these brain maturation processes, this raises a secondary question of whether there is a critical time window
for the processes to take place, or whether catch up is possible when oestrogen or testosterone is introduced later.

As for the "can't find devs that know it" problem, I'd suggest anyone reading this that Svelte is incredibly easy to pick up. Like I skimmed the docs in literally a few minutes, and was able to build out a reasonably sophisticated application almost immediately.
On an ad-supported site, you're not the customer. The advertiser is the customer, you're the product. Making that even worse is social media, where being good on a technical level is only meaningful when we're talking about handling scale -- the rest is if people you care about are using the platform.

If you want to see how bad it gets, look at how Facebook abuses CSS in order to have sponsored posts say "Sponsored" at the top while avoiding a straightforward place in the generated html that says "Sponsored" and could be matched by adblockers. It's nightmarish.

Because your data is not big, the simplest thing that might work is printing out the data on paper and reading it.

Yes this might take eight hours.

That's almost certainly less time any alternative approach.

And most importantly, time invested scales linearly.

Printing out and reading twenty contacts right now, would be useful elephant-eating-one-bite-at-a-time progress in five minutes.

Among the useful outcomes might be discovering that your database is less useful than you thought. Or it might let you understand what data is useful.

Most importantly, it might identify holes in your data. A machine learning model cannot do that.

Good luck.
> It's especially helpful that the library doesn't require you to opt into its own dedicated types, and instead defines extension methods on existing types.

Fun fact: bstr 0.1 went the route of defining its own dedicated types! See: https://docs.rs/bstr/0.1.4/bstr/

But it did indeed quickly prove to be pretty annoying. Because you still really want to use &[u8] in places because it's so ubiquitous. But to get access to the byte string methods, you had to explicitly convert it to another type.

The reason why I went that route initially was so you'd always get the good Debug impl. But it ended up not being worth it sadly. This issue discusses it a bit more: https://github.com/BurntSushi/bstr/issues/5
That's fair, and there's certainly tons of incentives to ignore problems; office politics, liability (because if a company is "internally aware" of a problem, that's a huge liability for lawsuits and regulation), etc.

But I'd give a lot to see a reality TV show where people who constantly criticise big corporations are put in charge of the relevant team for a year (people here being put in charge of FB's ads team; people who want headphone jacks being put in charge of the iPhone hardware design team and having to deal with the tradeoffs) and see how "easy" a problem is to solve. Though them running these companies to the ground might be the goal after all.

I’ve been wondering for years if it might be possible to use a UAV with a pretty hefty sniffer to check out some areas and detect cannabis pollen.

Then Subcontract to some hardcore criminals to go rip it off and flip it. Totally risk free money!

Looks like they will be capped soon in the UK, but this only means that Government (e.g. us) will be subsidizing the big power companies. As big power companies buy (hedge) their power way in advance, we'll need a longish 6+ months period of stability before they will be able to start selling cheaply again. Also all those tiny suppliers that sprang up and had to buy on the spot market have gone bust (no hedging) so there will be less competition in the market over the next few years.
> freeports - storage facilities that exist outside of the realm of domestic taxation

Billions (TV show) depicts how these freeports work as well, exactly like you’ve explained. Absolutely disgusting that these loopholes exist…

Note: I find that when examples like these are used, you always get comments saying “Anyone can use a freeport” and “They have perfectly legal usecases”.
`in` and `out` would have been the familiar choice, but I think Blech made the better one. They sort of wink at this in the documentation, by naming parameters in and out, but more than just freeing a couple nice names from being keywords, this spare notation is a good fit, read vs. read+write is a crucial distinction in embedded.

In particular, a function with one parameter list can only read the variables, and that is as clear at the call site as it is on declaration. This is a nice property to have!
> In other words, a single vehicle breaking down can take down the entire transit system.

Eh. It's the same way for most train tracks around the world, single track and double tracks without frequent crossing. You could still push/pull them along with the next train, in case they have a single point of failure.

Other points still stand, but with that quite ambitious completion date well see sooner than later
Even though it’s the energy they’re after, not the screams, it’s the screaming that was their primary metric, and everything about their company was organized around increasing that.

Missed opportunity to bring it full circle back to this.

Otherwise, not bad.
So much of the economy of the web is built upon advertising, a tedious way of paying that becomes more costly as your time becomes more valuable. It's so tedious and costly that there are legions of people building products to bypass this payment and giving it away for free. Does this sound like a healthy economy?

Not only is the foundation weak, but the advertisers themselves are really, really poor at actually delivering relevant advertising. If 25% of every ad that I saw led me to a product that made my life genuinely easier and/or more enjoyable, I wouldn't mind seeing them, would I? Instead I most prominently see ads for a product or service that I've just paid for, or their competition. Too late? With all the money being spent on marketing I'm disappointed they can't do better.

And worse still, there are people (and machines) flooding what was once a useful internet full of knowledge with worse copies of that knowledge, sometimes algorithmically scrambled and riddled with affiliate links. Too much information! Some good and some very bad. We're in a bad state, and advertising has a lot to do with it, in my opinion.
What do you feel "held responsible" means?

At the scale of counties and continents, this either means some statutory duty has been breached, or some political decision has been taken that favours the current arrangement over one with more availability of backup supplies - in exchange for other downsides (e.g. cost).

Realistically it's the latter. And this means that different politicians and political movements can now propose more plans for energy stability—maybe additional funding for renewables, expanding nuclear provision or so on—and hopefully this will affect political and regulatory decisions in the future. At this scale—and for all its flaws—the ballot box is the only real tool for accountability.

> When your government spies on you and locks folks up without due process, this is good because it keeps the children safe. And a host of other convictions that are so toxic I cannot say them online without feeling dirty. These are the kind of people that say "think of the children" without irony, that view the world in purely adversarial terms and do their best to hate as many things as they can. They live to make everyone around them miserable.

FWIW, I am against dragnet surveillance, in favor of due process, doubt I've ever said "think of the children" without irony, don't view the world in adversarial terms, enjoy looking for the positive aspects of things other people malign, and don't want anyone to be miserable.

Personally I would suggest build it as quickly as possible in whatever tech you feel more comfortable and giving you something that will be immediately useful. This will also help you fine tune the user flow and data model. Thinking of others, opensource etc is version 2 IMHO.

If you go down the Desktop app, maybe consider using sqlite and spending some time thinking about a MVC model (or fancier if you want). This will help somewhat if you need to split it into a web app.

Resource wise (for a web app), a lot of people have raspberry-pi's lying around. It could be hosted on that and shouldn't be too resource heavy. Also nginx is the web server du jour nowadays rather than apache. I believe it's leaner.
