> And your "inbuilt biases" are just a justification for sexism, racism and other forms of discrimination created by specific historic circumstances. There is no "inbuilt" basis for discrimination.

bullshit, a 100% plain "non-tainted" human sees a sabretooth tiger, you can be pretty damn sure some big biases sets in.

see another human, and biases do too, the more they differ, the more the biases sets in, and this goes for more or less anything, not just sex, "race", but more or less anything.

Humans however, are pretty smart, and what people generally call racism today, has mostly nothing to do with builtin biases, like when someone is called a monkey for being black. In many cases, people who are labelled racists today arent even racist. I would recommend watching the southpark episode regarding the town flag for further education on this subject (yes, really, I dare you)

I'm sure it's true that this happened and the young Pakistani dev won out.

But the generalization from this anecdotal example to broad conclusions is of course BS. We know nothing about this German coder, what they specialized in for 19 years, and how good they are. Meanwhile, being young and Pakistani also doesn't imply you eat grass and make grunting noises.

There are many bright young programmers, and youth does help with productivity and adaptation to new tech (like AI).

Ask HN: How did you name your monolith?
Naming microservices is easy. The thing that handles account stuff becomes the account service!

However the monolith does many things. It may serve frontend and backend. Maybe even some AI, or the scripts of the colleague from finance.

So how did you name your monolith?

I often settle for company name + platform.

Ad revenue is mostly tied to sales people talking with big companies, addressing their issues.

For example: Southwest airlines has a huge number of advertisements across the internet. But Southwest doesn't want these advertisements to appear next to airport disasters. This kind of "custom request" is the bulk of $Millions+ revenues. You need to constantly cater to these company's seemingly arbitrary requests as they try to protect their brand.

Twitter fired the team that did this. And when they did, the big companies that care about their image left.
The details will make or break this but if the price and features are the same as Mint Mobile (an exclusively T-Mobile NVMO) but adds support on the Verizon network as well I will switch. While I have coverage where I live it's not terribly uncommon for me to find myself in a mobile dead zone without travelling far. Verizon network support would be a no-brainer reason for me to drop Mint.

That may be correct, but that's speculation.

From my limited perspective given the factually reported cost reductions, -60% seems 'fine'. Right now it seems like the platform has hit rock bottom in terms of public sentiment so even if the projections were optimistic at -30%, as long as things don't get worse, that's about it. Everyone who is holding out to subscribe or who has left the platform, has probably left already.

Would love to see the source document to understand what frequency 'regularly' and 'sometimes' refer to, and to know when in the last months the projections missed so spectacularly - but that would be boring journalism.
Strange. This article was easy to read, simple formating, not driven by trends or weird internet culture. The weren't any bombastic claims, aggrandizing statements or dramatic opinions.

I don't think this is a bug. After all, why waste resources indexing pages 2 .... n when nobody even goes there? If something accrues signals outside of Google naturally, then I am sure it will get indexed. On this note, I don't want to be another 'SEO is Dead' person, because it is never dead, it just changes, but I do suspect over the longer term, links will become less relevant and Google will take a more human-curated approach to ranking selection using LLMs.
Latter NeXTStep feels like the peak of computing UI aesthetic. Maybe the abstractions and metaphors have improved a bit (I do think modern drag-and-drop icon-based file managers are probably an improvement), but everything interactable and non-interactable in those interfaces is crystal clear and unambiguous. Some of the themes I've seen around the Internet are spot-on perfect.

Why did Linux so thoroughly abandon that look? Almost everything that works on Linux theme sites is...flat. FLAT. It's ALL FLAT.

Why did usenet fail:

1) It couldn't serve ads in a controlled manner. The lack of monetization made sure that most people paid for usenet access allowing 'free' http driven apps to take over.

2) Most ISPs didn't provide much information if they had a NNTP server users could use, and NNTP readers didn't come with most users computers. HTTP did.

3) It wasn't exciting to new users. Web went from mostly text to multimedia as internet connection speeds increased.
This is a fine introduction to how you even approach the problem of computing transcendental functions.

It would have been nice to have some discussion of accuracy requirements rather than just eyeballing it and saying “more accuracy than I need”. This is a spot where inexperienced devs can easily get tangled up. An attitude like “ten digits? That’s so many! I’m only making a game, after all” is exactly the sort of thing that gets you into trouble if you start accumulating errors over time, and this is particularly easy to do with trig functions.
I'm not sure if you're... into newspaper lingo.

But "anonymous source" usually means "Dude who emails reporter", and often someone who is an executive level or above. You know, someone who matters, but for their own sake they need to stay anonymous.

If its just a document, then the "source is the document". You don't need to quote an anonymous person (who likely has their own biases), you just quote the document itself.

These words that journalists use? They have meaning. "Anonymous source" is not how the story is described. It is described, rather precisely, as "internal documents".
I've always been fascinated by the dissonance between what some people insist they need from an off the shelf system (bulletproof with a dedicated security team because Security is Hard, rock solid reliability because I depend on it 24/7) and what they will accept in a DIY solution (completely unsecured un-audited software with no tests and something broken every other day).
Not who you responded to but, who died and made the UN king? Are they the final say in the determination of human rights? There are countries that are not members of the UN, do these human rights apply to people in those countries? If so, by what authority? If another group of countries forms a group and makes a declaration of human rights that is the antithesis of this one, does it have the same merit?
Really cool page. I'm not musical at all but find the theory very interesting and this breaks it down in a very accessible way. I have to say I struggled to follow some of the later examples in my head, as it was difficult for me to tell the component pieces apart while also following the timing, but if I tried hard I could pick it up.

Kind of a different topic, but this reminded me of when I first read The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle by Haruki Murakami. It really opened my eyes to how literature (and art in general) didn't need to follow a set formula or be tied to any structure or reality to be enjoyable. It helped me appreciate other surrealist and magic realist art which I enjoy for, seemingly, a lot of the same reasons as people enjoy J Dilla's work.

>, but you simply can't replicate a Lisp-wielding Paul Graham in any other language.

But anyone who wants to really dig deeper will wonder about replicating which particular aspect of PG's productivity.

If the aspect they care about is the ViaWeb ecommerce site that he sold to Yahoo for a few million, then all of PG's essays[1] about (paraphrasing) "Lisp syntax being their secret weapon to agility and flexibility compared to others using inferior blub languages" ... isn't going to be convincing to others who notice that Amazon ecommerce was built on Perl/Java/C/C++ instead of Lisp. And later, Shopify was built with Ruby on Rails and PHP instead of Lisp.

In other words, maybe the secret weapon to building ViaWeb wasn't "Lisp" but instead, "PG's brain". (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confounding)

This is why language discussions focusing on "superior syntax" really don't really move the needle when it comes to mass adoption. Yes, Lisp's "code-as-data" is powerful etc, etc but there may be other factors that make that syntax feature not so important in the bigger picture.

The thing that I also don't get, is that I haven't seen an example of that being an issue on stackexchange yet

I also don't see the end goal making a bot that answers questions on SE. It doesn't make money. Maybe to get points? But once you're past their thresholds there's no reason to keep doing it, and you get there quick. Accounts don't get sold to advertisers like on reddit. You'd at most do it once. And who would even do that? The very narrow niche of people who'd want to boost their SE points? Maybe you're shooting for the leaderboard but if that's the case... you'd get noticed, wouldn't you?

I could see some kids doing it, if that's the big threat they're facing... then they're over-reacting and it still doesn't warrant blanket bans on LLMs

Don't understand this at all. If you have a static site (Which a blog should be), CDNs will allow you to handle practically unlimited traffic for free.

Even without a CDN you can host the static files in a bucket for practically free.

Heck even serverless platforms usually give you 1M function calls for free each month.

Cost is not the limiting factor.
They've been flooded with large amounts of new domains/sites hosting generated garbage content. I suspect this is just a barrier to slow it down until they figure out how to detect such spam better.
well, can't really comment without URL but one thing I found majorly annoying is who sticky "noindex" has become. used to be that you could put your staging on noindex, put it out there, do a lot of external testing tools (pages speed insights, mobile friendly tools, webpagetest.org, 10000 other tests that can easily be done on the open internet) and send the page around, and then on publishing day just remove the noindex, trigger recrawling and be indexed and visible in Google in no time.

now it takes weeks to month for the noindex to vanish. even after google has crawled the pages again and again as visible in the logfiles, the pages stay noindex even though the information is long gone.

google, the lazy monopoly strikes again.
There are enough weapons available, ammo might become tight one day so. Those weapons, from tanks rifles to planes, are modern so. That means that Ukrainian operators need training, that takes time. Logistics have to be set-up for everything from spares to consumables, that takes time. Not to forget that some of the stuff wasn't properly maintained for quite some time by the donor nations, so they need repairs, maintenance and overhaul. That takes time.

As long as NATO is willing to support Ukraine, a lack of weapons and gear shouldn't be a problem.

I have a website that is #1 when it comes to the problem I'm solving. No one comes close.

Its mostly due to, its a money saving thing for consumers, and that isnt really profitable. Its low hanging fruit, and I have the best website for it. Nothing really comes close, most alternative websites make mistakes in their advice because they are using feelings rather than millions of entries of data.

Anyway, if you search specifically for my most popular metric, you will always get my website. If you google 'cheap X', you will get inferior websites.

Even with SEO optimized, there are just bigger websites that are friendlier with google, linked by other websites, or it could be better SEO. Whatever the case, it makes me wonder what kind of websites I miss because I use google.
I suppose this could be true. Before getting too excited, I have to weigh this information against the procrastination-prone behavior of taking too long to think about things before actually starting on any work. At least the results are noteworthy in a lab setting.

As an aside, my senses are sharp (maybe not common sense), but the benefits are a little counter-intuitive, like the conclusion here. I can see very small things up-close and far away, more than a good chunk of my peers. I can also hear conversations from very far away, to the surprise of people around me. Somehow, I still miss so many things that are obvious to others. I wonder if having too sharp senses gives one too many inputs to process, leading to a similar result as this study here.

There are a few other brands you can find out there with either a N5095 or N5105 (Alibaba even had 16GB memory versions).

If you want same behavior across the whole application you can always write generic function doing just that.
