> So if YouTube used the same deep learning models to push people to more extremist content but without using any user signals so that everyone has the same recommendations that's no longer promotion?

I don't want to respond to part of your comment and not the other, so I'll just say: I don't know, because exactly defining the specifics is not my goal.

> Fundamentally any decisions a site makes to filter and sort content to show, including HN ordering by vote count and mixing in new content to allow it to make the top page, is an explicit choice they are making that cannot be differentiated from "promotion"

This is the part of your comment that actually matters to me. This statement is so definitive, and yet there are people arguing just as definitively that some ways of prioritizing content for users create liability while others do not. I think there is a difference between "elevating when it otherwise wouldn't be elevated" and "providing a moderated list", but those two states are probably separated by a grey area, not a bright line. I think how YouTube identifies content for users is distinguishable from what HN does, but I also don't know if that difference matters with regard to liability, especially with regards to Section 230, which makes no attempt to legislate HOW content is made discoverable.
No, I didn’t go to the ER. That sounds expensive, and I am a cheap bastard.
I too have been running single node k8s on tiny $5/mo vps and it works fine. Less than 500MB ram used for k3s.

It also takes unbelievably little effort & is remarkably secure & useful out of the box. There's no intra-cluster permissions setup, but if you're a startup & especially if most devs are leveraging paved-road tools or gitops for ci/cd, maybe just trusting your team is enough, at least for the first years.

Metrics, logging, postgres operator, lets-encrypt storage: all just worked. I had https webapps in under an hour. I did burn some significant time writing my own helm charts for dns (coredns & bind), but there were good existing options I would have been happy to use, but I wanted to learn helm & jave my specific idea done this particular way. Then my webapp had great dns integration too!

As you say, the whole state of the world is pretty readily exportable & re-loadable. If someone does really goof up, as long as volumes & backups arent wiped out (often shipped to s3 compatible endpoints by many tools), it's bad & there's downtime yes, but the road to recovery can/should be incredibly fast. If you have history over time for backups, be easy enough to spot what changed that made things go bad.
Quoting the article : "One Medical’s seamless in-office and 24/7 virtual care services, on-site labs, and programs for preventive care, chronic care management, common illnesses, and mental health concerns have been delighting people for the past 15 years."

Not experienced with Amrican healthcare services, I understand this is a huge telemedecine firm. It's reasonable for Amazon to invest in a virtual medecine provider. Too much cash on-hand waiting for a strategic investment in a new industry.

Reminds me of Berkshire Hathaway's purchase of the insurance provider Gecko. Both are business deals that are convincingly different from Alphabet buying FitBit (software company seeing value in another software company).

If you're a customer of Amazon, this will satisfy you and disrupt the whole healthcare sector. I expect more effectiveness and value-added than from the US gov initiative "Obamacare" (harshly challenged by political backlashes).
In place of iterate, as tagbody still has a very specific place in the arsenal that loop doesn't fully solve. Or maybe it does and I'm missing something. I'm probably missing something.

Absolutely agreed that iterate would classify as a DSL, too. It's just that I prefer exploratory code to read like English as it forces me reason about what I'm trying to do. But honestly I haven't used iterate as much as I perhaps should have, I might need to change that.
Sorry, but this guy doesn't understand how markets work.

Egg supply is down. You either raise prices to lower demand, or you sell at the lower price until the shelves are empty. The latter means the product goes to the connected or the insiders rather than to those who really need it. It also causes black markets in the product by those connected individuals--and such secondary markets are a bad thing when you're dealing with a product with safety implications. (Say, any perishable food.)

I'd prefer the price go up.
I just like wearing a watch that's more than just a watch.
My healthcare plan has a website and you can put in a zip to see who is around you. They should list in network doctors, if there are only out of network doctors you can call the insurance and get an authorization.

United Healthcare dropped a large provider in my state for a few months and I had to do the authorization thing to see my regular doc. No out of network changes.
That's my point: there's plenty of evidence (at least one ongoing court case and lots of personal anecdotes), and there are plenty of people denying that the evidence is real (lots of personal anecdotes). Governments have to weigh the evidence for and against and make a decision.

In general, when weighing evidence, negative evidence cannot be given the same weight as positive evidence.

For example, I have never seen an elephant in the wild, but it would be a very foolish process that takes my testimony as proof that elephants are extinct in the wild without at least listening to the people who claim to have seen elephants in the wild. A more likely explanation for my negative evidence is that I have never been in an elephant's natural habitat.

In the same way, if there are lots of voices saying that caste discrimination happens and lots saying that it doesn't, it would be irrational to listen to the negative evidence to the exclusion of the positive evidence.

If that is the case that min wage laws are a major cause then it is definitely a case of baumol, because the wages would be increasing beyond the underlying productivity due to external factors. We expect wages to rise with gains in productivity, but the sectors of the economy that don't have any gains will necessarily increase along with the ones that do, because of labor market competition, minimum wage laws, etc. It puts a strain on those industries, just like we are seeing in child care
There is no single answer, but the more essential an item is the less accepting society is with "Person who can pay more" approach. Eggs are one of the more fundamental ingredients in the diets of many Americans.

We could lament them shutting it down, but why not thank them for doing this for 20 years? That's a LONG time to do anything, and despite what Google has become, it absolutely defined tech culture.

Now it's obvious and commonplace, but an employee-centric company was revolutionary at the time. Things like this changed the lives of every single person here, either directly or indirectly.

And best yet, it's a chance for other companies to take up the mantle. Rather than wishing Google kept playing their same old hits over and over for 2 decades, there's more oxygen for new companies to take the lead.
A bit less than that, as I recall it was 3/5.
I really like Algolia. I usually use it to see if a particular link has been submitted. Other times I use it to find relevant comments or posts.
Counterpoint: As with books and music, the blockbusters pay for the entire rest of the ecosystem. The MCU, Star Wars, and Avatar movies keep people going to theaters, which keeps the movie theaters alive for all the "creative" arthouse films that the movie hipsters keep trying to foist on us. Most people simply choose not to watch these other films.

And last year, Paramount was the top-grossing studio until Avatar was released at the end of the year.
I do think that any site which believes it is too burdensome to be legally responsible for their content should not be permitted to market their content as safe for children.
Oddly, the rate of change seems to be a fairly consistent rate of change at around 3 frames per shot per year since 1930[1], with changes like MTV, the reduction of the role of the studio in the 60s and more creative freedom having not much change in the overall rate. Non-English films have also for some reason only had a 40% decrease in shot lengths over the same period. My hunch is that video literacy has increased as people are exposed to video with faster cuts than their parents, and we'll reach a bottom eventually. A rough comparison can be made to the word count of NYT best seller books steadily decreasing.[2]

This is a great example of what I think of as the "thought leader" style of Hackernews blog posts in which someone says something extremely obvious and at great length while taking pains to make it seems like its deep and insightful, even slyly subversive.

What does this post really say beyond "gee, there sure are a lot of different ways to think about investment in a company?"
First thing I saw is my answers to someones question.

Hear hear! Sounds like Wired is a mouthpiece for Big Tech.
If only Theranos had been founded by a man, they would've gotten funded and would've revolutionized personalized medicine.
my 2c: i would suggest to make sure you have a decent portfolio online ( github/gitlab/bitbucket/whatever ) to include the link in your CV.

since your focus is web-backend, a nice "as original as possible" project following some design patterns of a REST API with microservices, JWS tokens, with unit-tests and automated integration/load testing on a rather modern architecture like Clean/Onion/Hexagonal that you can explain on a technical interview the hows && whys of your choices...
then it's a numbers' game: send CVs to every open position you can find.
That's an incredible feed line. I honestly don't know where to start.
Exactly, we effectively persist BuildKit's state directory, so it doesn't even need to tar and export any of the internal state or layer cache, it gets the same state volume for the next build.

Today we're using vertical scaling, so we run BuildKit on larger EC2 instances, tune `max-parallelism`, and let BuildKit handle processing multiple builds / deduplicating steps across builds / etc. What our website calls a "project" basically equates to a new EC2 instance (so two different projects are fully isolated from each other).

We'd like to expand into horizontal scaling, probably with some kind of tiered caching, so the builders would be able to use local cache on local SSDs if available, but fall back to copying cache from S3 if not available locally.
I wonder whether there are any shortcuts like ingesting a substance to make the glucose visible by the sensor.
This is extremely important. One should take a good faith approach during a discussion. I see the opposite happening far too frequently these days, and it makes having productive conversations neigh impossible.
There are multiple apps I "can't live without" but they are all default apps.

(Not really "can't live without" but that, to me, justify the cost of buying and the routine of wearing.)

I do sometimes want to track or do some things in a certain way that the default apps don't... but I can ever seem to find an existing app to do it either. The apps exist but don't work the way I want any better than the built-in ones.

(Since I'm a developer, I sometimes whip up a prototype watch app myself, though I have to admit that while some have proved useful for a while, none have become a killer app for me, no matter how much I thought I wanted it originally. I do like my couch to 5K app.)
Compiling a web app takes seconds as well. The common complaint is the resources needed to run the app as a consumer, particularly when most of the apps you use are all instances of chromium.
There are some valuable points in there, but the "if the product is selling and the company is making money, how much of a problem could it be" in an article which references FTX and could have referenced Theranos sounds like Gordon Gecko style parody of the industry...
See how the NHS is currently doing.
Ooof - I messed that one up.
Coroutines are when you don't want to run in parallel, because sequence matters. A typical example is iterators, you want the loop and iterator (routine and coroutine) to run in lockstep.

You could use threads instead, but then you risk getting in all sorts of concurrency problems. And if you synchronize everything, then great, you have reinvented coroutines. In fact, you can think of coroutines as threads with built-in synchronization, which may be how they are implemented.

This could be said about alllll the inbound marketing pieces that end up on HN. That being said, I appreciate what Fly is doing and enjoy seeing their content and problem solving.
Most of the urgent care I've used don't have the equipment to handle this. I've been twice in the last 6 months to 2 seperate urgent cares. In both cases I had to go to the ER anyway for X-rays. The doctor in one urgent care gave me a referal since she has surgical rights (I think?). I was sent straight to the X-ray tech rather than waiting it out in triage.

Thank you!

1) That is a reasonable point. We request the most granular features we can to make our app work. For OAuth, just the minimum profile info. For connecting repos, you can give access to just the repo you want to list, and we access repository hooks so we can update our listing when you update the repo. I listed some public repos that I'll have to manually update, so maybe I can allow others to do the same and just have a cron that does it. We also ask for administration permissions so we can add buyers to private repos. Unfortunately GitHub doesn't seem to allow more dynamic permissions to only apply to private repos and not public ones.

2) Valid. Maybe this is more suited for the premium case where you'd like to find starters where the creator has a paid incentive to keep updating and addressing issues.

3) If you charged for it and got people buying, maybe you would feel differently?

4) I agree developers should pick the group of tools they are interested in, but they still have to piece them together, which can be more work than the project itself in the worst-case scenario. If someone wanted to work with Django and React, I think being handed a starter with some instructions would get them running faster than having to understand at the core how they can work together and actually getting that functional.

Your own example reminds me of one feature I'd like to add is a "built with" section for each starter that would show live projects that started with it.

Anyways thanks for the feedback! Really valuable for me.
Historically speaking similar supply disruptions have caused smaller price spikes, so this exceptional price spike must have exceptional causes.
Or even pump and freeze for pickup by the outside caregiver if need be.
pretty much any half-decent watch can do that nowadays. I'd not trust a no name brand w/ bank card details but the feature is not exclusive in any way.
Yes, imaginary.

You wrote a whole paragraph about something that never actually happened, and that shows no sign of happening.

And you wrote it as if it actually happened. It's quite astonishing to read.
I mean, they might just be a class of frauds that are currently legal thanks to lack of will to close a particular loophole that permits their existence. And it's not as if they don't receive legal penalties all the time:

Eh? Async code almost always uses the APIs you describe.
> This feels to me like a case where the market should sort it out - I would think there would be enough competition in the egg industry that it should be difficult to gouge.

If all of the large producers are in on it, then the market would not be able to sort itself out. It would be a trust situation.

As the article states, competition is decreasing due to acquisitions by egg producers.
Based on reporting of the oral arguments, it seems to show that the Supreme Court understands that they don't understand (other than Alito, perhaps), are worried about breaking the whole thing, and will probably do nothing and issue a ruling saying that if changes are needed it's Congress's job to do it.

See for example https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2023/02/brett-kavanaugh-...

Fediverse interop or bust. It's fine if you want to build a new site with blackjack and WebHooks, but I will never see or interact with any of the site's content if it doesn't Federate. Even Tumblr is getting on the bandwagon, and I think there's a untapped market for "managed" federated media.
Anecdotal and not guaranteed to work for everyone: I have found holding my breath for as long as possible stops hiccups. And you can't cheat with this, you literally have to hold your breath until you think you're going to die. Most people don't like unpleasant situations like that, so when I suggest it, they scoff, but for me it works most of the time.

I think the reason it works, is it dampens the power the spasms have, by doing a pattern interrupt. 'Oh looks like we can't do spasms anymore, this person is running out of oxygen, let's re-allocate resources to things like breathing properly'.
I really was hoping this was going to be a chart of egg sales by supplier, not a political screed.
>To be clear, you don't get all three.

Actually you do. The branding is called FinFlex, but the upshot is that you can use different FETs for different parts of a circuit. So some critical timing bottleneck blocks could be built with performance optimized FETs and other blocks can optimize for low power.

The numbers from TSMC for N3E are +18% speed improvement at same power, -34% power reduction at same speed, and 1.7x density improvement.

You sound like soviet-era politicians in my eastern European country, when they painted entrepreneurs (and private profit) as the root of all evil, and centrally planned everything. It didn't go well.

Don't get me wrong, I think regulating markets is a good idea and the US probably doesn't do enough of that. But I don't get how raising egg prices are bad for society - nobody has to buy them, and this are just regular laws of supply and demand at work. If that's just a regular market activity, it will sort itself out.
To support "overwhelming": the number is around 70%, as of the latest polls I could find (October 2022):

https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2022/10/31/two-years-af...

To pollsters, 70% is an overwhelming number. An election is called a "landslide" when you reach 55%. It's well outside of any conventional margin of error.

When it comes to ideology like this, I'm never sure of the degree that people tell the pollsters the truth. Not that they lie, per se, but that they will repeat the expected answer without giving much thought as to their own opinion.

Nonetheless, this is an extraordinary number. It means that over 2 in 3 Republicans already believe that democracy has failed, and presumably believe that it will happen again. That is a dangerous proposition.
> Heck if the markets were truly free markets and stock price was based on fundamentals, we may even start to see highly paid senior leadership cuts over lower level employees.

> Ok so 90% sensitivity.. Anyway, it seems backup culture is rare and also problematic.

This is the danger of Googling around for information without any contextual domain knowledge.

- You're quoting a statistic from an op-ed (op-eds are not fact-checked, let alone peer-reviewed)

- You're misquoting the statistic as provided by the op-ed (that op-ed is written about a test with 95% specificity, as claimed by the author)

- You're quoting an op-ed written by a witness called to testify in the defense of a physician who was sued for not following the documented standard-of-care - hardly an impartial source

- You're quoting an op-ed written about a single case (n=1). Furthermore, it is chosen not even as a medical case study but rather because the legal case is of financial interest to the author

- The op-ed is nearly fifteen years old - and, as it turns out, the prevalence and risk of rheumatic fever is radically different in 2023 than it was in 2008, for the worse.

- Even if you discount all of the above, the op-ed as taken at face value is written about a case in which a patient didn't get a backup culture drawn and ended up requiring two heart valve replacements (!) after a false negative on the rapid strep test. Regardless of whether or not the doctor is legally liable, it's not a good argument that rapid tests are sufficient.

If you go about looking for information to support your argument, it's often likely that you'll be able to find something that on the surface seems to support your case. But if you don't have the necessary domain knowledge to evaluate the trustworthiness of the source, the accuracy of the claim, or even its relevance to the matter at hand, that can lead you astray.
That's definitely part of the issue, but compare the SD8G1 to the SD8G1+: these two chips are literally the exact same design, but the SD8G1 is manufactured by Samsung while the SD8G1+ is manufactured by TSMC. The TSMC variant ends up being ~10% faster while simultaneously drawing less power: https://www.gsmarena.com/testing_the_snapdragon_8_gen_1_plus...

(Apple, of course, still blows both of them out of the water.)
I hate how "normal" of a company google is becoming. Closing down services and products not because they aren't profitable, but because they aren't profitable enough. They've really lost their way the last few years.

In the late 2000's/early 2010's, google was pictured as the "fun" place to work. In part due to their coding competitions and the various other events they held for students throughout the year. Everyone I knew wanted to work for google. Now? everyone sees FAANG just the same as any other company.

Most of the people I know who wanted to work at google, and a few that worked at google, now have higher paying, more enjoyable, and more stable jobs elsewhere.
Very interesting. I admittedly haven't been to an urgent care in ~24 months.
Wouldn't this logic implicate all (non-incarcerated) mothers in kidnapping?

We have no evidence that the fetus prefers being out of jail to being in jail. Maybe it doesn't want to go to the grocery store, or take a car ride. The mother is making those choices, and it's not clear that her choices align with the fetus more than the state's.
