You refute my point and then agree with me that it can be expensive.

I worked for largest eCommerce employer twice and have built scraping and search systems at scale. I know a thing or two in eCommerce shopping sites. Do you know how much infra and people it takes to keep pricing, product, variant data up-to-date? Hint: It's significant capex investment.

Problem is entry point funnel in the shopping journey. If all he becomes an aggregator, it is no different than thousands out there. There is Shop.app which has all access to seller data and analytics. As I said, this is not a search problem. It is product discovery problem which you also seem to agree with. Unfortunately, not a lot of people/teams have managed to solve dicovery problem when site itself is fairly unknown.

Michael from YC also talks about product discovery being a tarpit idea.

I am not saying his search won't work. Search in itself is a solved problem here. You enter criteria/product name and you get results. But, unless you truly solve discovery, which in my opinion he can't do due to lack of first-party data, it won't do much besides a hopper site.

Sure, but there is no guarantee long term stock price is above what you paid for it. Also, the market can be unreasonable, in both directions, for quite a while. Dividends are what you epupd be looking for in long term stock investments.
How do you even fix bugs with AI? That sounds rough.
I know, which is why I'm hoping that's not the case.

But then, if that's not the case for /proc/<other>/fd/<n>, why would it be for /proc/self/fd/<n> ? Where does this expectation come from?

1. No. To quote the very same Guice documents you are pointing at: "What is dependency injection? Dependency injection is a design pattern wherein classes declare their dependencies as arguments instead of creating those dependencies directly." Literally what I said.

2. Oh boy, this is the first time I have seen Guice and it is exactly what I am talking about with languages not understanding the concept and having to be worked around with utter hacks. If you just had symbols you could bind constructors/types to and then pass those around into your implementations you could get rid of most of the common cases they mention in their docs.

This is a nonsense reply.

You’re committing a fallacy of “Appeal to Authority”, even though your comment doesn’t make sense — obviously we need a consistent measure across decades if we want to compare inflation across decades. Comparing two numbers that measure different things is an apples-to-oranges comparison. (Which is what you’re arguing we should do.)

If you use a consistent measure from a 1980s basis, you’ll see that person is correct — as measured using the historic means, we’ve had ~40% inflation in the past few years and the highest rate of inflation in 40 years.

This chart uses the historic measure and bases in 1980.

can you review the first half of this article (background story) https://newbeelearn.com/blog/what-happens-when-you-get-2nd-p... it was my attempt at being funny.
playing good theoretical poker is very complicated.

People spend thousands of hours trying to grasp it.

In a 100BB 6-max game in a single raised pot BTN vs loose player on Bb, who called your raise: is the J83r a good flop for a small bet? Maybe a bigger bet is the proper size?
This is a simple question that has often a correct answer and the question is different for each flop, for each preflop spot and potentially for different opponents.

Now once you have figured out betsizes on the flop - go figure out which actual hands you are supposed to bet. Hmm, you should play most hands with mixed strategy of check and bet, but with different probability distribution so that your distribution of good hands / bad hands on the future streets after called is right on a variety of turn cards.

You can spend all life mastering that part alone and we are talking only about the first decision on the flop in single raised pot.

Tldr; poker theory is not something easy and quick to master.
I don't mind the short videos. What I do mind is that they co-opted the word "shorts" which means something else in the context of videos. https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/movies/story/2024...
The game is playing a minimax strategy, which means if you go first it will at least draw, and if it goes first it will never lose.

Yeah, that's the thing you always squint at, but start missing when it's gone. Working with modern languages without declarations quickly makes you feel like the declarations are missing.

> Last year, Google did a $70b stock buyback. They also laid off 12,000 staffers (whose salaries could have been funded for 27 years by that stock buyback). They just laid off thousands more employees

Presumably 12,000 google employees working for 27 years could deliver more benefit to google (and to the world, and probably to google's shareholders as well) than a stock buyback?

Yes — if you use a consistent measure, this latest inflation is the same rate as the late-70s/early-80s inflation.

https://www.shadowstats.com/alternate_data/inflation-charts

In fact, 2020s inflation (using historic measure) peaked at over 15% while the 1970s spike peaked below 15% — meaning that this latest inflation sets the record compared to the 1970s.

I won’t pay for YouTube as long as they keep trying to make Shorts happen. It’s everything I dislike about the Internet in one feature.

Edit: Why would this get downvoted? Do people really find value in shorts?
I’m on the verge of getting Youtube Premium

I didn't really like their “annoyance” style of advertising that, but competitors got worse

There are no DJ mixes on Soundcloud or Spotify any longer, and other platforms are a combination of unused or no mobile app

so I’ll go ahead and get rid of the ads now for just that, but along with everything else on youtube

> I thought that the dutch would be more ... modern?

As a Dutchman: no, we are not when it comes to businesses software. Dutch companies are very conservative and always choose the safe option. They are modern in that they updated the slogan 'Nobody ever got fired for choosing IBM' to the current century.

It is the main reason that I have only worked at companies with a healthy mix of different nationalities for the last ten years. Doing software in a Dutch monoculture is suffocating.
how much extra would you be willing to pay for a shorts-free experience? I'd probably be willing to throw them a dollar or two more for that.
They did test newsprint at one point in the YouTube video, and indeed it was the quickest to ignite.
Regulation can remove those consequences for any chosen safety/security feature by making every choice have it. Fundamental law of nature? You're deluding yourself.

(And if you say you mean outside of regulation, that people need to be responsible in general for other aspects of life, then your argument is no longer connected to the original comment you replied to.)
Who and why needs a TV when you can have a perfectly fine 32" or even 36" for reasonable money, and fully control what it shows?

One additional factor is you need to beg for GPU capacity from cloud providers, so they are investing in them, and also giving them preferential capacity over companies they don’t invest in.

Learning and a "personal tutor" seem like a sweet spot for generative AI. It has the ability to give a conversational representation to the sum total of human knowledge so far.

When it can gently nag you via a phone app to study and have a fake zoom call with you to be more engaging it feels like that could get much better results than the current online courses.

My brother in law runs a small construction firm and said that his single hardest problem is finding decent reliable workers. The only reliable ones aren't decent (highschool dropouts with alcohol problems, couldn't be trusted to do act on their own initiative). The decent ones all think they can run their own construction company after a few months, so they disappear, never to succeed, because they don't realise how much more there is to running a company (particularly construction).
The more skill you have the higher your win rate.

It’s true that playing against bad players will increase your win rate but it’s also true that if you study and improve you will also improve your win rate. It’s not true that there’s no point in studying since you should only play against bad players, because “bad player” is relative to your skill.

The podcast episode I recommended is a long time pro player interviewing another long time pro player, whose widely regarded as one of the best players ever, so I think these people know better than the HN comment section of “well 20 years ago I read one sklansky book and a year ago I played a 2/5 game and didn’t win much so poker is pointless unless you play idiots”

I mostly use `ghq` to clone repositories (and have a few `fzf` aliases based on that, like `ghqcd` to `cd` to some repo)

[ghq] # https://github.com/x-motemen/ghq#configuration
root = ~/dev

Sometimes, from my personal machine, I need to check something work-related ; then on my personal machine, I checkout in `~/dev/myorganization/`.
Inversely, it happens sometimes that at work I need something I wrote for myself ; then on my work machine, I checkout in `~/dev/myusername/`.

This allows me to use `gitdir:` rules that handle anything `~/dev`, and I have fallbacks for everything else (who never checkouts in `tmp`?).

#
# Superman vs Clark Kent
#
# Debug Includes with: git config --list --show-origin

# the default identity, for checkouts outside of `~/dev`
[include]
path = ~/.config/git/gitconfig-default

# on my work machine, this defines Clark Kent ; on my personal machine, this defines Superman (or is it the reverse?)
# this one is not commited in my dotfiles
[include]
path = ~/.config/git/gitconfig-local

# work-related repos on personal machine
[includeIf "gitdir:/home/myusername/dev/myorganization/"]
path = ~/.config/git/gitconfig-myorganization
[includeIf "gitdir:/home/myusername/dev/gitlab.com/myorganization/"]
path = ~/.config/git/gitconfig-myorganization

# personal repos on my work machine
[includeIf "gitdir:/home/myusername/dev/myusername/"]
path = ~/.config/git/gitconfig-myusername
[includeIf "gitdir:/home/myusername/dev/gitlab.com/myusername-namespace/"]
path = ~/.config/git/gitconfig-myusername

This works nicely since years^W `includeIf` was a thing.

However, there are situations at work where I'm on a server where I didn't created `~/.config/git/gitconfig-local` (which is a manual step I always forget) and any commit from `/usr/local/src/something/` will end up configured with Superman identity.

I found out about `hasconfig:` some time ago, and took note of it for when the option would hit `git` from Debian Stable ; your comment comes the day after I accidentaly commited as Superman on some work repo checked outside of `~/dev/`. Time to add more rules!

I was locked out of my computer after a Windows update. I had to go into a terminal in recovery mode, change an executable to a copy of CMD.EXE, then reboot my system and use the CMD.EXE (which ran as SYSTEM, the true god behind the Administrator demiurge) to create a new user, copy all my files and folders over, then set ownership of the copied files and folders to the new user.

Anyone who tells you that Windows is great because you never have to touch the CLI is either lying, or they've only ever had trivial interactions with a Windows system.

They'd need to send a lot of lawyers, considering that they have no idea how many people are using the model, and very little way of finding out. And they'd need a TOS violation. It would be generally expensive for them to do at scale; this isn't about "turning it off" arbitrarily, it's a CYA in case someone specific does something really bad that makes Google look bad: Google can patch the model to make it not comply with the bad request, and then demand the person running the model update or else lose their license to use the product. It's a scalpel, not an off switch.

There’s not much else to say other than you’re wrong. People tried their best before solvers, then solvers came along and people who didn’t keep up with them lost to people who did. I think it’s possible for people to win without studying them because of a combination of soft games and natural instincts, but the vast majority of good players these days do solver work. If your brand new, having an experienced player distill some of those concepts is helpful, but if you want to be good you might as well start doing the things good players do sooner rather than later.

The only question that I have, will it break my old devices, so they would be forced out of the iMessages ecosystem? I believe that would happen. I don’t use it heavily, but that’s one of the reasons I keep an iPhone these days. The other reason is FaceTime support, so I could easily connect with those with iPhones. I do use not very modern iPhones (the very first SE currently), as that’s what I need my iPhones for: to make a call (via FaceTime most times) and to send a message (via iMessage, sometimes). If Apple breaks that for me, I’m either forced to buy a newer iPhone (which I’m not sure I want, considering I’m all in Linux and Android). Or they force me to rethink my priorities and just leave this. I can live with that, it’s just less convenient.

S&P 500 has hit an ATH not long ago with high rates. The economy seems to be working quite well. There is not even a crash in residential real estate.

Yes. Obviously. This is an absurd question.
There are two modes of watching TV in my opinion: intentional and casual

Intentional: look for a certain show/movie, e.g. the weekly episode of House MD, Lost, Friends, HBO, ... -> This is the streaming war between Netflix, HBO, Disney, ...

Casual: You turn on the tv with the aim to just browse around and relax, and get something accidentally interesting/amusing -> Youtube is king and more or less the only option here (and a bit of Nebula)

The two together is the traditional TV
