Since Google collects a lot of personal data from each user, search results for the same query are different and personalized. This seems like a perfect solution - beside the tracking.
For example, if someone searches for ‘python’, Google can use the context to show results about either a snake or a programming language. But what happens if someone wants to learn to program in Python as first programming language and has previously searched for a frog and visited the zoo last week?
In my opinion, the information that Google collects is useless and doesn’t enhance the search results.
The website UI is by the Alt-F4 team, not the FUE5 team, it's like seeing this discussion and then complaining that FUE5 'copied' Factorio's colour scheme, thinking they are also behind hackernews, lol.

If you're strictly going by FOSS contributions you'd end up with an Intel CPU and an Arc GPU though.
This is completely manufacturerd outrage. Someone must be pushing this angle as there's been multiple stories on the same subject recently.

When those came up a glance at Google maps revealed green golf courses in the desert next to these solar farms that were of equal size, and vast expanses of empty desert surrounding them.

I'm generally in favor of rooftop solar as it has lots of benefits from being distributed and minimizing transmission. Deserts aren't actually that great for solar PV, but this is still astroturfed FUD.

I can think of many examples of mediocre work resulting in self made financial success.
The difference is where they live, who they know, and who know them.
I would point out that most of your examples are only allowed to hold significant sway over a boy after they've become a young man, in the teen years and further. I'm also speaking to young childhood through the early teen years, when children are mostly going to be limited to their home and neighborhood. There are cultures where they'll regularly come into contact with "second fathers", who will have discipline privileges over/responsibility for them, over the course of their daily activities. This is not the case in America; the norm is the buck stopping with one's resident parents, and others have little authority or responsibility. So I understand if it's hard to conceptualize; we simply don't have much lived experience with it.

You're thinking institutions, when I mean uncles and grandparents who live down the street, or even with the family; trusted neighbors (perhaps distant relatives); teachers who can afford to live in the same neighborhood; local workers and entrepreneurs who are included in neighborhood life; and so on.
It would help a little bit, yeah.
It sounds like your suggestion came about by mis-reading the parent comment, but I will offer my 2 cents: yandex.com's english results for hard to find, technical terms are infinitely better than google's.

as someone who remembers How Google Used to Work, Yandex feels like Old Google. It indexes the hell out of long tails, will find exact, specific terms and phrases, and 100% respects generic search operators such as exclude "-".

do I look for news articles on it? hell no. do I find the unfindable (on google, and increasingly, on duckduckgo)? yes, I do.
My point is if you want damages from energy companies for deaths from warming then they should bill you for deaths prevented from cold. It's preposterous to think humans would be better off with less or more expensive energy. In a broader historical context, the only people who believe this are the most privileged people to have ever lived.
Yes, you have a good memory. :-)

I'm hoping to save students and professionals a lot of time/money by creating these primers, then showing how people can create their own primers for their schools and workplaces.

Yes 100% you're right that unless you are already an expert and could have already written the book anyway, it's difficult. I've worked on these topics for years, and written about them, and taught them to many companies, so I know many of the topics well and have used many of them in practice.

The reason you're seeing these primers now on HN is because I'm working with a company that's investing a lot in team training, and the company has plenty of books on the topics, but it turns out that teammates are never reading the books because they're too long and too full of opaque terminology. The company and its partners are prioritizing startup entrepreneurship, UI/UX design, and project management.

As I experimented with ChatGPT on these topics, what I found is the ChatGPT output is close enough to my own business-oriented writing that it makes good sense to use ChatGPT first then edit it. Currently, each primer is taking about a month of wall time because I have so many of the topics already, and all I need to do is research for thoroughness, generate via AI, edit for size/form/style/etc., test with readers, iterate a few times, wrangle with pandoc, publish on gumroad, and so forth.

If you have advice, I would love to hear it, and talk with you. My direct email is joel@joelparkerhenderson.com.

>I’ve noticed the link to a member-only Medium article that serves as a source for that estimate, but I have to ask—is that a vast amount? It doesn’t feel like a vast amount.

It is absolutely not a vast amount.

I run a website about German bureaucracy. It's how I pay the bills. There is a serious lack of quality resources for the technical parts of immigration. It's incredibly valuable.

The biggest issues people face with immigration - temporary or not - are always the same: housing, joining the various bureaucratic systems and making friends.

If you're a nomad, loneliness is a far more serious issue. While people grow their roots deeper and deeper, you transplant every few months. Some people have no place they call home, and no one to call for help. Locals are not always keen to befriend someone who is right about to leave. Some will resent people who "pass through" their community instead of participating in it.

I could be a digital nomad, but I chose to grow my roots here. I take longer trips, but there is always a place I call home where I am emotionally invested.
That sounds like a bug with Ubuntu not having the proper drivers.

In my opinion an open-source driver not written by Nvidia and an Ubuntu ISO not packaged by Nvidia aren't indicators of Nvidia "just work"ing or not. There are many distros where Nvidia drivers come installed out of the box.
There are dozens of us, dozens I tell you!
Assuming we're using "DMCA" here as a shorthand for the DMCA safe harbor, what do you mean it still applies? The way I understand it, abiding by the takedown process is only relevant for a party that would otherwise would be liable for copyright infringement.

The court states this in a bit of a roundabout way (compared to my blunt summary):

> The DMCA safe harbors provide potential defenses against copyright infringement claims where, but for the safe harbors, the plaintiff has a meritorious cause of action against the defendant for copyright infringement. But alleged failures to satisfy the conditions of a DMCA safe harbor provision cannot constitute a cause of action without a viable underlying claim for copyright infringement.
“does not alone explain” means the same thing as “cannot be explained by.” I think your confusion stems from “is influenced by” being a much weaker statement than “can be explained by.” Being in prison for example isn’t ”explained by” people breaking the law as that would require nobody to be falsely imprisoned or be set free on a technicality etc.

The second statement follows from the first. If you can’t completely determine someones wealth from past decisions alone, then you can’t group the poor or wealthy by the history of their past decisions.
I have a feeling you haven't worked on parsers or compilers that much if you think you design all of the syntax before building anything
Interesting. Why do you think it's not being done?
those subs may wither but they're not a big revenue source or a big deal in the grand scheme of things. And if the current crop of users leave it doesn't mean nobody is interested in that topic anymore, so the odds are good that users will return in the future.

If the mods are still gone at that point, there's abandoned-subreddit procedures that will be executed.

And that's the part that mods are trying to exploit for griefing with the "it's not closed, we're just not letting anyone post"/"we're only letting people post unfunny memes in protest"/etc. I'm not touching you, I'm not touching you.

Like it's just kind of funny that the mods are literally Going Galt and just like would happen in the real world, they're panicking with the realization that the world is pretty much going to move on without them.
You got good theory backing hand-written parsers, and the code is there right in your face. I don't know how a regex engine works.

Yes, many westerners, at least in America, fear commitment. There is a doomed generation that believes they will find their soulmate in their mid 30s and start a family in their mid 40s, despite this being a biological delusion.

There, did I scare you?
I’m not so sure about that. Maybe, but they also operate much more directly, by buying up tons of renewable energy technology patents and sitting on them.
Do you think the world would be better off if this effect were eliminated, ie that people could not preferentially help their own children? Or are you simply pointing out that life is not fair?
> “Science says nothing. Only scientist.”

That's a great way of putting it. I'm ashamed that I only recently realized it during a discussion about science and religion with my friends. I defined science along the lines of "best-effort iteration on making a hypothesis, collecting data, and evaluating the hypothesis". And that's without considering the human factor, whether it's confirmation bias, thirst for fame, or some other weakness. That's not to say that science is worthless; on the contrary, it embodies our capability to rationalize our universe. It's unfortunate that so many people think that understanding science means listening to the mainstream consensus of scientists, without critically evaluating their own values, assumptions, and the limitations or outright flaws of the studies. Nuance shouldn't be overlooked and mistaken conclusions should be addressed.
The documentation says: "Polycentric provides an alternative to traditional social media platforms by utilizing self-sovereign identities in a distributed censorship-resistant network."

Only one of these can be true.

Opportunity is not meritocracy. I have no issue with guaranteed basic life support for everyone, with additional privileges for those who contribute more through some combination of talent and effort.

But this only works if there is true equality of opportunity with completely open universal access to education, health, basic tech and tools, high quality unbiased news, and social opportunities.

The real cause of inequality is privileged parents trying to tilt the scales for their kids and their social class.

You may say "That's only natural" - but so was cannibalism until we worked out that it's a really stupid idea and does a lot more harm than good.

The real costs of unearned "elite" family privilege are almost unimaginable. We're so used to how things are that we can't even see how much this arrangement has blocked progress in every discipline.

Not only does it pollute politics, democracy, and the media, hoard resources uselessly, and cause untold human suffering, it also guarantees that most of the talent in each generation is suppressed and wasted.

Totally. Advertising is fundamentally about distracting someone so you can put money in your pocket without regard to the impact on that someone.

I have a lot of complaints about, say, McDonald's, but they make their money through giving people something of value to them. Advertising legitimizes the making of money in a way unrelated to value delivery. (The same is true about a lot of finance.)

When you combine that with up-and-to-the-right numerical goals and standard executive incentives, over time you pretty much guarantee what Doctorow calls "enshittification". Delivering value becomes at best a side effect of the system.
Lol, you think nobles' landholds weren't tenured by the consent and commission of the king?

It's just like being a commissioned military officer, you serve at the pleasure of the President and if you end up being a shitter you're gone and they'll replace you with someone else. Nobility was literally medieval commissions.
Installing R (2022)
+1 about the 'waste my time filling my mind with unwanted trash' vibe. Like someone is killing me, suffocating me, taking my life away, or similar. Relates to "you are what you eat" ... I am what I think, experience, and am influenced to do.

There's a difficult problem of maladaptation and misleading that, to me, is coming from the meaning resulting from the repeated and well-known answer to, "who gets the money in the end", these days. I believe society would benefit from discussing value-propositions of adtech and the attention economy. I wish that we would take more seriously the social impact of our businesses, the richness or depravity which our business activity imputes.

More musing:

I used to work in adtech, not by choice, was transferred to that dept. Worked in in-app purchase tech throughout my 6-years at that co.

A trend in technology, now, seems to me to include: the crisis of Generative AI devaluing humans own ability (and effort) to recreate prior art, the dissatisfying Reddit value-exchange of creators feeling disrespected by site-operators, and the dissatisfying politics of left and right pursuits towards winning instead of promoting healthy human interdependence resulting in disaffected populace.

So in short, I think pop technology has overshot the goal.

Adtech is the simplest way to make money off provided-experiences, I believe. Subscriptions require too much buy-in, by comparison. Adtech is "just there".

This view (of the reality of content creation) imposes, I believe, an expectation upon all of us (who want to create or consume content) that there is nothing better - no better approach to celebrating human experiences than +1'ing to share one's individual influence/record-of-attention...and to me it conflates the point of life as being something to do with short-term financial success.

When it overlooks more true base human goals / pursuits of having babies, that happiness and comfort in safety, and the joy of growth.

I'd like for emoji-reactions, +1's, impression counts to be segregated more formally by businesses, so the boards of managing companies and stockholders could see also see the social impact of businesses.
Gamers in this category have a choice between Steam Deck and Windows alternatives like the Asus ROG Ally, GPD Win, and many others. One could see the success of Steam Deck as being directly related to it's choice of OS. As a consumer, I want a game device, not another copy of Windows to administer.
No, they come in a wide range of frequencies/wavelengths depending on the systems under study. LIGO is sensitive to a higher frequency/shorter wavelength range. LIGO can't access Nanograv's regime due to limitations on reducing environmental noise.

I'll offer another point in support of your experience. I purchased the non-US Sensodyne, verified it had Novamin, used the entire tube as directed with no water drinking for at least half an hour afterward, and saw zero results.
To me, it feels like “intuition” although it has different origins covers all of the resulting meanings.
It's really not as weird or as esoteric as the memes would lead you to believe.

(Common) Lisp is multi paradigm so you can write code that looks very much like "C with the parenthesis in the wrong spot" and it'll work just fine until you evolve a more idiomatic/"lispy" style.

If you're proficient in C, Java, and Python you already have everything you need to be proficient in lisp. It's honestly not that difficult to learn.

This is exactly how a PlayStation game I worked on worked and because everything was signed they were in no way worried about attackers. If you were able to alter the files on disk you had already owned your device.

Too late to edit, but wanted to ask the question directly: can anyone recommend a static site generator or CMS plugin that adds this functionality to a content-driven site? Anything/any generator or CMS is fine, I'm in the "poking around" phase of getting ideas. It would be for small-scale usage, on the order of a team annotating and discussing simple web content with basic text.
If you spent $1.17M on a PhD and you use the word "costed," you should ask for a refund.
The benefit is that you can reject bad requests to an API more easily.

For one application I used a base 58 encoded value. Part of it was a truncated hmac, which I used like check digits. This meant I could validate IDs before hitting the DB. As an attacker or script kiddie could otherwise try a resource exhaustion attack.

So in the age of public internet faceing APIs and app urls, I think built in optional check digit support is a good idea.

I’ve met a lot of people complain about learning it, and while I don’t write it as often as I used to, it does help me write faster. We were also told even as kids that a big justification for us learning it was to help develop fine motor skills. I’m not sure if science backs that up, but I feel like it helped.
As a contributor thanks for your worry but next time keep your virtue to yourself. I read his response multiple times and don't find anything wrong with it. Just an opinion. Worths as much as mine or yours.
The people with experience also aren't necessarily the ones that end up teaching - which isn't to say the same information can't be conveyed necessarily (e.g. good academics keep up to date with the field in industry) but there is powerful focus that practical experimentation brings.
Unlike the author, I'm not very worried about Wikipedia. Yes, they ask for donations, but that's not a sign that they're dying; donations are their main revenue source. That might be unusual among the web's top sites, but it's not in the grander scheme of things, i.e. there are lots of charities and nonprofits.

I didn't know that LLM training sets used Wikipedia. I would have thought that the CC-BY-SA license (on all text) would keep them away. It's not like Chatbot-4000 can cite all the Wikipedia articles used to train it, nor is Chatbot-4000 going to license all its output under a CC-BY-SA license (as required by the license terms).
More evidence they probably bring the species in themselves prior.

You can't tell me that with hundreds of thousands of basically untouched acres of hills available, this lizard or butterfly decided that a noisy area full of 2 stroke motorcycles was their best bet.
All the talk of a recession last year was always just bluster to justify layoffs and other anti-worker policies and actions. Anytime there’s that much unanimity in the press about the economic outlook whether it’s a coordinated move or just groupthink, you know it’s not going to happen.
The meaning of having someone show you a banana, and expecting that you are going to buy a banana, is dumb-making for the viewer.

The expectation by others that you are as dumb as a gorilla takes you away from what you could become.

So in that way it's evil. It divides you from what you could be.
I have similar extended family. They are very entitled and lazy. When they are given things, they don’t take care of them and they basically go to shit. They aren’t mean spirited but somehow lack all drive to take care of themselves. Without our social safety net, they’d either live off of family or simply die.

This is true on both sides of my family. Somehow my parents both are hard workers and have thrived, relatively speaking.
I think it’s a cultural thing. The study was made with North-American commuters, it’s not ever a thing in dense metro areas with good subways, like Paris or London.
