Okay, let's consider the things that have been said and argued.

I'd say that in this case for most people it is not valuable to read the history of the argument but rather an up to date summary of it - the originally made argument is worth reading if and only if it's the best way to make it, no parts of it have been refuted and no one has found a way to state the same thing better.

Instead of listening to what, for example, Kant had to say originally, the proper resource should be a "steelman Kantian" position which omits anything that has valid refutations, which changes anything which has been disputed because of some nuance by integrating whatever fixes and corrections can be made as a result of the counter-counter-arguments, and prepare a coherent position which is solid even in the face of all the counterarguments which have been said in the centuries afterwards, a "what would Kant say after reading every Kant-influenced philosopher" statement.

If some argument made by Aristotle still stands, then readers of philosophy should not be offered the counterarguments without an immediate reference to the counter-counter-arguments that dismiss them.

And if some argument made by Aristotle is not perfect, then readers of philosophy should not be presented with that argument without the counterarguments; or (as I said above) in a corrected and augmented form, dismissing and ignoring the flawed original - the original is relevant only as a historical footnote of how the truth was found, but is not really relevant to the truth itself.

A product of philosophy should be actual conclusions - okay, out of all the Aristotle's works, which parts are considered settled truth, and which parts are part of an ongoing debate? And if so, what is the current, state of art position in that debate, what are the best irreconcilable arguments on both sides?
The Lusitania had nearly 1,200 of its passengers killed when it sank. It was clearly sunk by a German submarine. That was a much more overt act of war.

> It is sensible to read other philosophers I guess, but I think people should be encouraged to argue on their own.

You should be "arguing your own" much of the time you're reading philosophy, no matter how old it is.

It's one of the Three Readings (which can be done all at once, not necessarily in three literal separate passes through the book, if you're a good reader and well-matched to the material you're reading) of Adler's How to Read a Book. You haven't fully engaged with a book—especially a book of philosophy—until you've done it.
What an ignorant comment. What do you expect, that there's fighting everywhere? People looting at night and society near anarchy? We have two state actors with roughly equal capabilities. It's not US&Allies vs Iraq.

Western ukraine is not "hardly affected", it is affected. There are many refugees, probably everyone knows someone fighting in the east. You might look to fight in the east as well if you're in the right age bracket! Economy is shit and people are training to rotate to the front. Putin is waging a brutal war, killing and torturing ukrainians. There are air raid warning in kyiv, kyiv pride happened underground! Yes the government is corrupt, but we have to help them fight this monster.

It's also not an odd war, industrial societies maintain industrial capabilities to wage industrial war. WW1 was fought on the west in mostly static battles. Neither Berlin or Paris were affected by bombs, less than easter ukraine for sure! And they fought for years. Even in WW2 society largely functioned until the end in germany (if it was not bombed to shit!). It's interesting to see the logistics of everyday life near the end of WW2 in germany, you expect everything to end up in total chaos but everyone with a job just continued doing their job. Why not? dairy farmers still produced milk and shipped it off, and quite a lot of the railways worked.

We see ukrainian flags here in a small town in germany, recently they celebrated something in public (maybe their independence?) and we got into a converstantion, we have refugees starting to study here etc. Heating prices are through the roof and I can't really afford to heat my room, al because of this stupid fu*ing war. War affects you even if you don't have bombs falling onto your head! In whole WW2 only like two or three bombs were thrown onto the small city (~80k) I am currently living in. War doesn't mean everything is blowing up all the time.

Chargeback risk in these industries is considerably higher than in other industries. If your wife/husband finds a porn subscription on your credit card bill, a lot of people take the approach of denying it and charging it back. Chargebacks are expensive, whether you fight them or accept them.

A lot of adult industry businesses also accept ACH transfers or crypto because there is no chargeback risk on either of these.

I don't get why that's a problem? They already built their platform, it works, they're the gold standard and they have a massive paying userbase! Why do they need VC money? Why would you want to dilute your stock rather than just build with your already existing, sizeable revenue stream?

Based on the numbers for average account balances and stuff, it seems like retirement is a luxury for the current generations. Evens the social support systems are being underfunded, which is likely to lead to inflation or economic downturn as the taxes increase to cover them.

Even as someone who is better off than others my age, it seems like retirement will be a long way off and tight. I was interested and looked up how I stacked up and it turns out I'm around top 25% for income by age and about top 1% (that's alarming) for savings. If it's shakey for me, how is anyone else going to make it? Property values and taxes aew sky high. So is medical care. Other stuff like groceries or parts/labor for home repair are rising.

So yeah, it does not look good in my eyes.

>the logical implication is that mutual agreements are equitable

But nobody uses 'equitable' in this sense, as people have a variety of reasons to engage in a mutual agreement, where upon asked one or even both parties would agree that the agreement isn't 'equitable' or fair. To say that mutual agreements are equitable is only because of the assumption that the agreement wouldn't have occured or been accepted if the agreement isn't equitable - which is obviously false, given that people agree to heavily unfair (though not unconscionable) contracts all the time.

True. But given the practicalities it tends to be highly intertwined with a few exceptions.
It's certainly controversial so all I can give you is a subjective viewpoint but yes, objectively these things make search engines more convenient but cut the traffic to the original websites by a small margin.

So far, I've noticed Brave Search only shows sidebar results for Stackoverflow and a few other popular forums that do not advertise on their pages directly, nothing else. So they're not really taking any revenue away. As for npmjs thing, I'm not sure if their revenue is hurt in any way because to view the package documentation you still need to open the link. Brave Search just provides you a copy command button extra for convenience.

As for discussions, they do not give full context so you always need to click the link so that's great for website owners as they get more exposure and traffic too.

At this point, Brave Search features are more on the UX side of things than anti-competitive so I personally will hold off the tinfoil hat for now.

Also, some charge a steep monthly fee. One that I'm familiar with charges $100/month plus the higher % per transaction. So even if you have $0 in sales for a month, you still pay them $100. So it's not the greater of % per transaction vs monthly fee. It is always monthly fee + % per transaction.
It has everything to do with using a different name every time. Say you have incompatible caches, do you really want to deny your user the option to run two versions in parallel?
AWS's bandwidth charges are highway robbery.

It's my impression that AWS competes with the EC2 instance cost (as it that's what new customers look at), and the bandwidth/storage only becomes apparent when you are locked in.

Really what AWS should be is one or two phases of service maturity: dev infrastructure and experimentation is phase one, phase two would be the "its a couple servers" production, BUT: with a scale plan for phase 3 being not-AWS.

Having a mature/battle tested phase 2 --> phase 3 should be a market advantage in the modern business landscape, but that's also a post-acquisition/exit phase, so none of the presumed target HN crowd care about it.

There are extensive articles and public knowledgebases on various technologies and architectures, but there is effectively nothing on AWS independence out there, even though almost every mature organization will need to face it.
I think a strong dollar should be good for workers/normal people, right? It brings the cost of imports down, and we import a lot of our everyday items. That might be helping to stem off even worse inflation.

I guess exports get hit, which might impact employment levels eventually.
It would be shocking if, in the long term, there were not cloud providers with lower prices than any but the biggest companies could achieve by themselves. AWS will have to work hard to keep giving customers a reason to pay the premium.
I guess you are just missing the point that Apple can wait out for a year or longer and keep using 5nm TSMC chip with more core, components or whatever. Once the supposedly "premium paying" clients buy the best 3nm chip, Apple can still be fine buying the rest. There is no personal ego hurt, if it still does not workout after 1-2 year of negotiation lawyers can go sign new contract for higher price. It is not like "Guys, TSMC asked for more money, so stop everything and work on setting up chip making factory in Tennessee however long it takes".

Also worsening economic crisis will hit TSMC much sooner than Apple.

Most insightful comment yet. +1
The idea is solid but as someone who is in the market for something like this, the product doesnt currently inspire confidence. Specifically, you’re a tool to create User Guides and yet you haven’t created a user guide for your own site. If you don’t have user guides for your own service that indicates a few possibilities:

- the tool is too difficult to use for even yourself to be worth it

- you don’t use your tool deeply so you don’t have intuitive understanding of what is needed to be improve

- you don’t actually take user guides seriously and think they are important for a company to provide

When looking at this kind of service I’m evaluating on two levels: my customers experience, and my authoring experience. By not having your own user guide filled out I’m unable to evaluate the end customer experience (search, navigation, etc).

I know you’re in beta, but I don’t know why you’d do a show HN without at least having your own user guide filled out. A big wasted opportunity.
That's pretty high, but not astronomical.
From the article:

“Physics is not taught or practiced by reading and interpreting Newton’s Principia Mathematica Philosophiae Naturalis, Geometry is not done by studying Euclid’s Elements, and so on”
To steel man this, in every science class I’ve taken, we read text books. They covered a massive amount of material from an innumerable number of thinkers. In every philosophy class I’ve taken, we read individual books by individual thinkers. Perhaps everyone reading Plato first hand isn’t necessary?

The middle ground is probably currant books - that track the evolution of thinking over time. My favorite example is From Atomos to Atom. I’ve never seen anything like that in a science class.

I applaud Asim's effort. I can't wait to try some of these APIs out.

One of the APIs is for SMS. Any idea which provider is being used for these SMSs?

Also, I see some similarities with Rapid API. Another API sharing platform. It would be cool if other devs can add their own APIs to Micro's platform to make some extra loot.
> With Apple's cash war chest, they can afford everything.

Including TSMC's price. When push comes to shove, accepting the price hike would likely be the cheapest option.

You are right. It does not address this concern specifically, but if you follow this tutorial to learn this library, hopefully, you will not get to have this concern.

Regarding the different APIs, this page [1] from the documentation attempts to compare them and provide code that generates the same result using the the different APIs.

While I share a loathing for everything having to be a study of what someone else said a long time ago, I think it's mainly in the areas where we've not made much definite progress that this phenomenon happens most. Only historians bother with Aristotle's physics today because we have something definitively superior that we can prove is more correct than his model. Same for biology (arguably his key area of interest).

But when it comes to ethics I don't think we can say the same thing. I'm not even sure for some areas of politics. When I read Thomas Hobbes Leviathan I found myself thinking "Wow, at least no thinking person will ever defend that philosophy again" and then a couple of decades later Steven Pinker did just that.

We're really not making much progress in the humanities. I'd like to think we're done (intellectually speaking) with chattel slavery as a concept but who knows. Grant and Sherman made bigger contributions to that argument than a whole swathe of philosophers either way.

Note that they remastered the game in 2012 as "Doom 3: BFG Edition", and that included the ability to use the flashlight while holding weapons.

I think Doom (2016) and Doom Eternal are far more successful as Doom games than Doom 3. Like the original 90s games, they're fast-paced, with wide-open combat areas and hordes of enemies on screen at the same time. The technical choices they made with id Tech 4 meant that a game like that wasn't really possible with the hardware available in 2004.

Maybe they just shouldn't have called it Doom? But its design as a slow-paced horror game, what with all the tedious monster closets, doesn't compare well to Resident Evil 4, which came out only a few months later.

Well said. One of the greatest travesties in popular philosophy is the tendency among otherwise intelligent, well-read people to think that they can “get” philosophy by just reading whatever small slice addresses some particular fancy.

You can learn a great deal that way, but it fundamentally strips the historical dimension away. And philosophy’s greatest ideas are developed over the order of centuries.
Crypto has been such a proven failure yet people still say these things on the regular.
> These cloud providers are by definition, charging you more than it would cost you to run it yourself

That's totally non-obvious and certainly false in most cases. Cloud providers have huge economies of scale, which certainly makes it less expensive to use cloud if you factor in all your costs related to running it yourself.

This is like saying buying furniture is more expensive than making your own furniture because they have a profit margin. Even if you don't account for your own time, it will certainly be false as you'll pay your raw materials much more.
That's the vibe I was getting; these all feel like focused libraries, but using these in an application architecture feels like you would have a distributed monolith. You need resilient task queues to turn it into a 'proper' microservices architecture, which is honestly a much more challenging task than encapsulating concerns like sending emails or geocoding.

The other thing, as another commenter pointed out, is that these are nanoservices; I find it really difficult to imagine a situation where you would ever need 10x of one service for 1x of another, for example. It's a litmus test for microservices: do they have to scale independently.

A lot of these just interface with an external service doing the heavy lifting, so the performance requirements for each of these is low; little to no value in running them on separate, independently scalable VMs.

I'm half expecting Intel to start producing chips for others in the coming years. However I doubt that it's as simple as sending Intel the blueprints for the M3, there has to be some re-tooling on both ends I believe.
There's two things in play here:

* What the law allows

* What the payment processors allow

Some industries, like sex work and cannabis sales, can be both legal and rejected by payment processors.

The law says they're legal in some places, and local authorities agree. But payment processors still want to protect themselves and their investors, so they decline to do business with such industries.

The moral hazard in this case is not that crypto may be used to avoid regulations.

The hazard is that a handful of private companies serve as de facto regulator and enforcers for all commerce.

You can tell it's a hazard because some people view any alternative payment system as possibly illegal.

You may think crypto should be criminal, but cash should be legal, based on the average age of this forum. But the younger generation has only ever used cash for illegal transactions, and there should be no surprise that governments would prefer a cashless society.

If you believe that crypto, cash, gold, and any other non-banking solution for payment remittance is likely to be viewed as criminal by regulators, then I have to wonder who the regulators are really protecting.
1) Pension funds (and other institutional investors) own government bonds.
2) They have also purchased risk/hedging products and posted these bonds as collateral.
3) As interest rates rise, the value of these bonds fall.
4) As the value of these bonds fall, these institutions are asked to post more collateral.
5) To come up with more collateral, they sell more of their bonds, dropping the price even more.
6) They are asked to post more collateral....death spiral.

The BoE buying these bonds applies the brakes on bond prices and "restores financial stability".

That is why VPS providers are cheaper than running your own hardware, at least assuming you're not always fully utilizing it. Cloud providers on the other hand, they don't really sell the resources - they mainly sell convenience, and that seems to be worth a lot.
Social pressure seems sufficient to produce most if not all of the problems described in the source article. Why are chargeback rates so high? Because the customer's spouse found out about the purchase and now they have to pretend it wasn't them. Why won't VCs invest in Onlyfans? Because it would be extremely embarrassing for a partner to attend a board meeting about all the great porn the company's producing.
