I downvoted you because I think you provided an overly facile explanation that focuses too much on headlines rather than the actual issue here.

A headline has always been an attempt to sell an article access to headlines and has a long history of freely accessible for this reason. Publishers WANT links to their article to use their headlines because that is how the articles are sold.

You talk about the 'atomic unit of journalism' being reporting... but that isn't really a meaningful assertion. What is meaningful is that facts are not copyrightable (which is good.) If you are selling access to facts as your product, you have to differentiate yourself on either storytelling, curation or speed.

Notably, the California law covers all links, not just those that include a summary or headline.

I don't think the crisis has anything to do with aggregation. I think the crisis has to do with how money is spent on advertising, how much of that money Google is able to extract via their monopoly, and the degree to which we've allowed capital markets to gut such a vital institution. I think the EFF report linked in the article does a much better job of breaking down the issue, even if I don't agree with every recommendation it makes or think they are sufficient.
How much of it feels like Factorio?
"counting the corners of the triangle twice" is just another way of saying he got the math wrong. It's just a fencepost error. Or am I missing something?
In an age where large tech companies gleefully comply to any request from the government already, or the government works with buying "public" information from data brokers to surveil US citizens without a warrant, this seems less horrible than it used to be, if only for the fact that it almost doesn't matter whether or not this passes, they already don't respect the law to begin with. We're at that phase.

Sure. But the first time they said "don't email me any more", it was actually more like "Don't email me any more... and another thing! X Y Z." playing an equally petty game of "who gets the last word".

I think that's a very standard VC line I've encountered in the startup world, but the stats just don't bear it out.

Pick any software business - productivity tools, marketing, data providers, security, UX, medical/healthcare - and the reality is always that 1-5 big companies dominate, while 100s or 1000s of smaller companies, many that fit with the ideas of the "calm company" philosophy, are profitable and even growing (albeit more slowly).

The "winner take all" mentality isn't even true in the sectors where it's supposed to be a hard and fast rule. Social media platforms have a half dozen dominant players, and another 40-50 businesses that are successful by the calm definition. Search engines - Google dominates, but another half dozen and a few hundred vertical search engines (in travel, B2B data, real estate, ecommerce of every kind, etc.) have 10s to 100s of millions in revenue.

Until I see an economy-wide analysis of this "winner takes all" rule, with massive numbers of sectors where no small/calm companies are surviving, will I believe this is true. Seems to me like the "riches in the niches" saying is actually the rule, but it doesn't fit with the unicorn-or-bust returns model of large venture funds.

Interesting. I know for certain from experience that some ESTA visitors and their employers assume the law does NOT work like this, and that as long as you're visiting for a legit "business" purpose you are not required to suspend your ordinary work activities while in the US. Good to have confirmation that this is wrong and that you DO have to suspend your ordinary work duties for the duration of the visit.

Hi Peter,

Thanks for taking time for questions. I’m currently on an L1B visa at my current employer. Is there any path for me starting my own startup? As I’ve understood it you can’t have any side income etc on the L1 visa and it’s hard/impossible to swap employers?

We will likely disagree.

My perspective is that you can only regulate things out of production. You can't regulate things into production. If that were true, politicians could have made us all rich by their wise words and actions. But they don't. Because they can't. That's not the source of wealth.
After exchanging about 15 emails with Vlad, I can confirm "appear measured and willing to change opinion, but zero budge". It was frustrating to be told I provide "high quality" discussion while many points remained unaddressed or just evaded into boring "we can't know intentions of search users" as if he was building a government.

For instance, he claimed both that a search engine shouldn't judge someone for searching how to commit suicide, because they might just want the equivalent of legal euthanasia in a place where it's unavailable and a global search engine should be value neutral for it can't possibly know all cultural norms, but also said "it wouldn't work" as a backup argument that was promptly ignored when I provided a study contrary to it.

I ended up feeling like Vlad has a lot of implicit beliefs that are rooted in free speech absolutism, but will rationalize via other unfalsifiable arguments (like scope creep / too many unknowns) while appearing like he'd be open to be convinced. I still use Kagi, but I'm ready to jump ship at the first opportunity.

In my eyes, the fact the UUIDs (or specifically v4, as mentioned in the article) encode no information is an advantage. I don’t think encoding the creation date into the UUID is likely to be a huge security hole, but I can imagine some instances where you would want to keep that secret, or at least not have a good reason to publish it.

I would also argue, strongly, that if you are planning to use the datetime an account/event/item was generated, you should track it separately from the UUID, in a dedicated column.

This isn’t intended to refute the article - it was an interesting read and I definitely learned some stuff, but rather to provide an argument for why you might want to stick with v4.
I am looking into uploading it on archive.org as well. Fingers crossed someone takes the torch. Bless open source.

ULID has an unnecessarily convoluted monotonically incrementing variant in its spec which requires serialization to generate IDs without conflicts. That makes the spec look like trying to solve multiple irrelevant problems in one shot. That’s confusing and more like a design smell. If you need a sequentially incrementing identifier, just use a big enough int.

I think the issue above and UUIDv7’s existence make ULID completely unnecessary.
Our institutions of government are so far removed from democratic control at this point that the content of this bill hardly even matters in the first place: they'll just break the "law" with impunity anyway, if Congress can't deliver what they want.
I've seen a few variants of this question, but not answered in a helpful way:

What is, in your experience, the minimum that gets you a decent shot at a NIW/O1? You previously mentioned that published papers are helpful but not mandatory, but for PhD students/graduates, if publications are not the determining factor, what is?

Looking through the Dhanasar's three prongs, it does seem like papers are the easiest and most consistent way of fulfilling the second prong (that "The Person is Well Positioned to Advance the Proposed Endeavor").

The third prong is the most mysterious to me (that "On balance, it would be beneficial to the United States to waive the job offer and thus the permanent labor certification requirements"), how do people typically meet the requirements for this prong?

Agreed. Google Sheets is a great scrappy option for a startup / small company.

I've used it for a lot of system data that needs to be modified by a few people at most. With a little bit of careful code and caching (I like validating and syncing to S3) you can easily use it as a crud frontend for important system data.

It also can make great adhoc dashboards - plug into APIs (even private ones if you add in custom Google Scripts code) or push data updates to the sheets. I've had rather large reports auto updated on a schedule with multiple views of the data (pivot tables, queries, lookups, etc). Fully focused customized views into the data needed to solve specific internal problems with really quick delivery times.

Sure, a custom developed option should be substantially better than Google Sheets, but you won't develop it quicker. By the time you actually need something bigger/better, you should be at a place where your needs are better defined and you can afford the resources to develop something better.

I don't think the issue is that people aren't willing to pay for it. The problem is, there aren't currently good options for paying for it. If I go to a news site and it is paywalled, I just leave.

If I could easily pay for today's paper (not an individual news story or a full subscription) without giving up all my persona info, I would probably buy 2 - 3 papers a day from various sources.

If you're a news site and you want Google to have a link like "News on Inflation", then just give your article the title "Unpacking the latest inflation data" and save the actual info for the article itself.

Because people don't value it.

I mean, seriously, that's the reason.

Back when newspapers were healthy, basically there was all this stuff that was bundled with the actual news that was of more immediate utility to people: classifieds, movie reviews, comics, coupons. And there was less competition for people's leisure time.

News is now in a very competitive leisure time landscape and is debundled from stuff that's of high value, and most people just don't care that much about news. They'll read it when it's around but they won't pay for it. The ones who are willing to pay for it mostly just subscribe to the New York Times because in a nationalized news environment why not go for the biggest producer.

Your frustration is clouding your judgment. The purpose of an intelligence service is to gather intelligence. Preventing acts of terrorism would be the mission of the Bureau of Counterterrorism, among others.

How is this different from Hershey funding a school for orphans from its profit, or Microsoft funding Internet Explorer with some of the price you paid for Windows (theoretically), or any business that uses income from its stable products to fund new products? The only thing I can think is that you are not actually satisfied with the product (search results for a month) and so in your mind you are funding R&D of the product you would like (better search results for a month). In which case, getting upset is understandable, but assuming my analysis is correct, the mismatch is that you aren't buying for the product they are actually selling.

this is addressed in the article:

> But whether Kitchen is correct remains up for debate. Jonathan Del Mar, a Beethoven scholar who has worked extensively with the composer’s manuscripts, told me in an email that any anomalous marks in Beethoven’s manuscripts were merely “cosmetic variants” of standard notations. Beethoven was a stickler for precision, Del Mar explained, especially when it came to his music, and if he’d cared about these marks, he would have made sure they appeared in the published versions. “I am absolutely convinced that, indeed, no difference of meaning was intended,” Del Mar wrote.

> Jeremy Yudkin, Lockwood’s co-director at the Center for Beethoven Studies, also initially viewed Kitchen with skepticism. “When I first talked to him, I thought he was nuts,” Yudkin told me. But Kitchen’s close and careful research won him over. Yudkin now believes that Kitchen has discovered a previously unknown layer of meaning in Beethoven’s manuscripts: “There are gradations of expression, a vast spectrum of expression, that music scholars and performers ought to take into account,” he said.
Yes, really. It's pretty clear that a lot of people with ADHD have a specific physiology that processes drugs like Adderall very differently.

I assure you, the safest industries in the world got that way because of data-driven solutions, not emotion. Go ahead, get angry from the comfort of your office, yell and scream about the injustices of the world. That's how we got to be so incredibly divided, so it must be the right way.

While (I don't even need to read it) yes it's more than likely clickbait, but having any car where the backup mechanical door releases in all seats of the car aren't blindingly obvious is an incredibly stupid design decision. For some Tesla models the rear door releases have actual manuals on how to release (https://www.tesla.com/ownersmanual/modely/en_us/GUID-AAD769C...)

In a proper accident, where power is likely cut, and the occupants are disoriented (anyone who's been in a rollover will know this), the last thing you want to be is fumbling around trying to get out of the car.

I don't understand how they got approved in NZ. If you were to scratch build a car here with the same door release, you'd fail certification.
