I think I saw a banner when I scrolled to the bottom as well, but it isn't showing again for some reason.

I assume that they already had this page before they chose to monetize with adsense, which kind of implies that asking for donations hasn't been very effective for OP.

>people are far more receptive to a message asking for a contribution than an ad.

I disagree. Do you want to know what my hot take is?

Imagine, for one moment, that we didn't have ads on the internet.

Instead, every page was full of banners begging for donations.

Instead of ad-blockers, everyone would be using donation-blockers.

All that "concern" I keep hearing about about privacy and tracking and long lists of partners in cookie banners would disappear in an instant, and everyone would show that what they really care about is just being mildly inconvenienced by distracting banners telling you to do things and nothing more.

That's what I really think about it. The instant ads disappear, whatever replaces it, people are just going to hate it the same if not even more, specially when it comes to free stuff on the internet.
I've recently had the same issue but with my Google accounts. I had to get a new Phone number just to get the account back and then it got disabled again. Not much is on that account. I just casually used it for signing into websites or services that I just wanted to try out and also for having separate subscription list for youtube & watching some gaming/movie/music videos that I don't want to be recommended on my main account. Now I'm worried that my other accounts might get suspended out of the blue. What is going on? I'm already degoogled and use custom domain. I don't even block ads on Youtube. I want to support the content creators. That's why I still even use them to watch videos. Is it finally time to move on to custom youtube frontend?? But if this happens to Apple accounts too, I can't just deApple. This is concerning. I didn't lose much from that incident but I recommend everyone to make a backup of your important stuff now!!!!
remember java? they forced OO onto users. a huge mistake. developers should not be forced to use a paradigm. same with memory safety. if they don’t get it, find better developers and pay more. essentially you are saying rust is great because companies can hire clueless people and rust will compensate for their inability.

Due to a similar approach to privacy, I use GenuTax, which is a Windows program not a website, and does not send anything anywhere except to the tax authority. Not everyone cares about this aspect of privacy and security, but for those who do, there are options, both free (GenuTax) and paid (StudioTax, etc.).
Pricing AI Is Hard
I think a major question is WHICH current EDA SW packages.

Cadance OnCloud Platform for PCB Design is $1500/month. Altium Designer is $11k.

Most of the universe is in the world of KiCAD, Eagle, GEDA, and similar.
IMO this is a solved question. There's thousands of years of research on this and the dataset isn't getting better.

It's useful to figure this out as soon as possible, not just for afterlife stuff, but so you don't put the wrong success metrics in place.

As the book Thinking in Systems puts it, rules are set by self-organizing systems. The systems are organized around goals. Paradigms (your religion-level knowledge) will determine the goals that are chosen. And the ability to pick the right paradigms is the most powerful thing of all.

But until you figure out the different paradigms, your goals will be set by all these paradigms that you don't understand and can't control.
So it's whatever number you're going to pull out of the air at any given moment. Thanks for being honest about it. Because the owner occupied percentage of Singapore isn't 95%. That's just the rate of ownership of citizens. There are these people called "immigrants" who might also participate in the housing markets. They might have a different owner/rental housing dynamic.

You really should have just stuck with your 90% number, because that's really closer to the owner occupied rate in Singapore. But hey thanks for really showing you're just making things up as you go instead of actually thinking things through.

It's sad too because I generally agree the ownership rate in most US cities isn't great and would prefer to see more owner occupied housing units to be built, but people spewing nonsense and making things up as they go really do a disservice to persuading people. Pulling numbers out of the air and blindly assuming that number should be a target probably does more to harm your arguments than helps.

Increased density would make their property even more valuable because it would be in a more desirable place in general: more walkable (more people = more businesses in a smaller area), fewer single family homes (the ones that were removed to build higher density housing, so that = more demand for the ones that are left), better public transit, etc.
It might be true to some extent. But there are quite a lot of projects, such as corejs, which gets tiny funding for the amount of significance it has on various large scale services
Mostly just the difficult to reach thing. “Near population centers” is still routing through awkward areas. It’s not parallel to roads like distribution systems. Hence the use of helicopter chainsaws to trim them. Utility PV is nice single areas filled with panels.

Maybe it could make sense. But with solar development being as aggressive as it is right now it seems unlikely that folks are just missing this idea.

I see a difference between "scrape for personal use", "scrape for public good" and "scrape to earn money from".

Everything is fine for personal use - you are choosing how to consume the websites, and if you choose to do it by extracting all the data into tables, that's fine.

Public good scraping is slightly murkier morally but I guess it's also fine? Similar to "fair use" copyright exceptions. (Unless it's commercial companies pretending to do "public good" solely for their own benefits, like AI "open dataset". Those should be banned.)

"Scrape to earn money from" is not OK. And sadly, this seems to be the majority of all scraping projects, such as: copy the sites wholesale and display your own ads on them, collect data to train AI on, for SEO (=make everyone's search results worse).

The good analogy is what would you do in a public place like a cafe: can you do your personal work? No problem at all. Can you put a non-commercial poster or sign? This may be OK. Can you earn money off it (say sell your own stuff inside)? No way.

The paper also proves that this capability, one unlikely to occur naturally, does not help for tasks where one must create sequentially dependent chains of reasoning, a limiting constraint. At least not without overturning what we believe about TCS.

Then we'd no longer be talking about transformers. That something unpredicted could happen is trivially true.

You're arguing Google has sensible motives. That doesn't particularly matter. What matters is what they encourage website owners to do in practice. Apparently that is to fill your website with worthless junk text.
>> of course that's not what this is about. It's about Google providing the incentive, for ruining perfectly good websites.

Wait,what? The author wants to monetize the site. He understands the actual users won't pay. So looking for an alternate option he turns to advertising.

Google says "hey, unfortunately your site isn't appealing to advertisers." That's not Google's fault, they're just telling the truth as they see it.

The site author has many choices at this point. One of them is to make the site better for advertisers (and worse for users). He chooses this route. Google should have stopped this how?
Spanish cities are dense (and very walkable) because at one point in time everyone went home for siesta.

There’s a bit of a white elephant in this article, no mention of mass migrations. People not only want to be in a city, they want to be in a good city. Whether that’s idealism, climate related, conflict related or opportunity related there are many drivers pushing people from everywhere to just here.

I think the next 10-20 years will be an era of local real estate highs and lows.

Long before actual submersion, the effects of rising seas will affect property in the forms of more frequent storms, flooding, and the effects on groundwater like in the Florida condo collapse. Inland, many parts of the world will start having water scarcity, or fire risk.

Instead of an all-over rising real estate market, I think prices in places like Florida, parts of Texas, Louisiana, etc. will crater due to uninsurability. The places that are still standing undamaged in 15 years' time will be incredibly expensive.

The only tricky part is knowing where those places will be exactly. The areas that were "sure things" just a few years ago, such as the Pacific Northwest and Vermont, have been shown to be not nearly so certain. Lytton, Canada spontaneously combusted, while VT has had many damaging storms and floods. So it's a guessing game at this point.

One could make the argument that renting is the best gambit, because that's the only way you won't get stuck with a climate change "lemon."
Wow. I did not know that.

It's the socialism for the rich that ruins it.

Tax breaks for property investors, tax incentives for property developers, handing large swatches of public owned land over the mates of the politicians for virtually nothing, selling houses to foreign buyers, selling houses to global money laundering criminal.

All to pump up the value of the housing portfolios owned by the politicians.

Whenever anyone says "let the market sort it out" I cheer and say "finally, the rich will stop getting their socialist handouts".

If that is your capitalist market economics then you might need to rethink how pure it is.
Many experts completly forget what it was like to be a beginner. That's why I've found it's generally best for absolute beginners to learn from an apprentice, and an apprentice to learn from a journeyman, because they still remember what it was like to be at the previous level.

I like Dart. I don't like the quantity of asynchrony I have to fight with to use it, but that's a "modern world" thing and there's little I can do about it. But picking up dart from a C++/Python/Objective-C/Javascript background was dead easy and even occasionally pleasant.
No it just seems that it becomes blind, so to speak, to the negatives and the inclusion of the words you were negating makes it more likely to apply them in the positive. This is how ChatGPT has seemed to behave whenever I've tried to get it to not include something.
Response to Scott Alexander on Medical Effectiveness
Yah I am not following the parent comment, either. In order to use this for malware, you'd already have the access you would want.

Otherwise this would need to make it into the main branch of Linux. That isn't going to happen. Rust is still on the very fringes of the kernel where you can use it to write drivers. No way they will replace anything with Go.

It's a neat hack, but it's not something that is exploitable.
I read that as 243 per 100,000

Ballpark, but under Australia's 264 per 100,000, more than England and Wales at 227 per 100,000 and less than Scotland at 318 per 100,000.
Which probably corresponds to a loss of foot traffic to restaurants & shops in the cities' downtowns. This is very visible in SF.
Google didn't 'make' the site owner change anything, there is obviously the choice not to serve ads and not change the site.

However, once the site owner decided to use Adsense then in order to use this service the site needed to change according to Google's requirements.

The point being made is that in order to serve ads the site owner had to add a lot of useless information irrelevant to what was driving traffic to the site in the first place.

Why did the first attempt get rejected, yet the final attempt after making the website objectively worse gets accepted?

The useless information that needed to be added to the site contributes to the decline in quality many people are noticing when using google search nowadays. This article provides a very interesting explanation for this decline.

Oh, I agree it's still a crappy site for advertising. He gamed the algorithm to get onto the program.

Of course getting into adsense isn't the goal, the goal was to make some money. But he didn't have a site worth advertising on before, and he doesn't now. I predict actual revenue will be equally turgid.

On the tracking front, sure, I mean I suppose some people go to the site. So it gets some views.

I have a road past my property which gets a few cars a day. Not sure putting up an advertising sign is useful there though...

Any pointers for doing this? I've wanted to do this for a while
When I first moved out on my own, I went to live in a very hip neighbourhood in Toronto - West Queen West. It was gentrifying, and had a lot of artsy spots, cafes, hole-in-the-wall nightclubs. It was an amazing time living there. A little bit of grit, a little bit of hip. Electro music. Coffee culture.

But, looking back, I was the gentrifier.

I've seen what it was a few years before moving in there: prostitutes on the street at night. Mobile soup kitchen feeding them, and a group of eccentric locals who included a man without legs in a wheelchair. Folks who got pushed out of other parts of the city - finding a home and a place to just _be_

What I'm trying to say is that: your "from" and your nostalgia was somebody else's "to". Somebody else lost what was there, and then you came. And then you left and something else came. The city builds up layers. And there is a longing and a nostalgia and a wrenching... but those feelings are part of what's always been there even before you. Now that you feel those feelings, you've joined in another part of the cycle.

> Can you elaborate on what the value of the site might be, to say a competitive advertiser,

Lots of ads don't care very much what site they are on, even if the purpose of the site is somehow unknowable.

But google knows the traffic it sends there. And it's able to show ads alongside those search results. Why can't it put similar ads on the page?

And apparently adding the dumb text unlocked ads, so there's the value being put to work. The old site has the same value, google just refused to recognize it.

> how that value might be unlocked?

Uhh, put ads on the site and the ads will get valuable views.

I don't know what you're asking here.

Or are you asking how competition between advertising networks would help? You wouldn't see several big networks in healthy competition all having the same bad requirements that a superpower can get away with.

An entirely childless essay.

It is the responsibility of any generation to stockpile books to pass on to succeeding generations, under the possibility (slight as it may seem) that future generations may be subject to some grid-down collapse scenario, or corporate efforts to take reading 'online'. This includes not just valuable reference, but a fair sampling of the parents' own 'preferred reading' and also any favorite books of their children that might also become favorites to next generation of children, such as their own childhood favorites. Which is why I guard my own daughter's favorite MANGAs she enjoyed once, even though her current lifestyle discourages too many 'possessions'. It is because someone has to do this. Our children are too vulnerable to no-Internet scenarios!

Small local groups can exist in cities, too. That’s not too far off from the concept of a neighborhood, something that is being lost in the sprawl of suburbia and commute-by-car.
Agree on basically all accounts. To elaborate a bit on this point:

>Because building a plane is so tightly regulated that a startup that can satisfy the regulations would basically look like Boeing, have roughly the same cost structure, and move as slowly.

Highly capital intensive industries like aerospace are extremely difficult to innovate in. The timeline for return is measured in decades, so you need full commitment from all involved. So it's not just that the regulatory environment is extremely onerous, it's that the aerospace industry itself, like other industries that index extremely high on complex engineering, is already so difficult that no one really wants to try (except Anduril, I guess). This is where everyone brings up Skunkworks and all the innovation that happened back in the 60s and 70s and so on, but I think we can agree that that time period really was different and we were much earlier in the curve, so to speak.

Well, I'm just describing the practical effects of the drug policy in Singapore.

It's very similar in the West: poor people get busted for doing drugs much more than rich people do.

Yes, I sometimes think policies could be made more efficiently, if they were to openly acknowledge the loopholes that exist for rich enough people, and just turn them into a saner official policies, instead of 'open-secret' accidents.

Singapore has a good example for gambling: foreigners can just enter our casinos, but locals have to pay something like 200 dollars to enter. Just so that you are under no illusions that you could come out ahead on net by going to the casino.

In theory, they could open 'opium dens' where you pay 200 dollars to enter, and then you can do your drugs there (all regulated and taxed and under supervision).
> Nobody makes you do anything. That's true from a strict personal responsibility standpoint, and it's an important boundary and important to remember: it's always your choice.

There's truth in this old chestnut but it has limits...

There's a spectrum from total freedom to pressure by incentives to the credible threat of violence. In extreme cases claiming someone "had a choice" is as ghastly as a free person claiming they had none.
Well he's from Australia, the same country that's attempting global content takedowns vs. Twitter.
My point is that Google has sensible motives, and that people with perfectly good sites will butcher them in the hope of making a buck, and then blame Google.

Google doesn't "encourage" people to butcher their site. Google has determined the kind of property they want to advertise on.

The owners of the site make their own choices. If they choose to game the review process then that's on them, not Google.

The owner now has a crappy site, which is still a bad place for ads (although the review doesn't know it.) The ultimate goal, of getting revenue, is perhaps still unrealized.

He was advocating for continually updating whenever the environment changes. Dependencies are a natural part of that environment, and I am highlighting how even doing just that is troublesome. With any mildly complex project, you would simply be spending all your time doing dependency updates.

I think we need to be looking at a better balance of backwards compatibility in the tools we use (both external systems and external libraries), understand the cost for importing almost-trivial dependencies, and I believe there might be even an opportunity for someone to start a business there ("I'll backport security fixes for your 10 dependencies for you").
