What is an example of a feed UI that supports content heterogeneity?
An excerpt from the end of a blog post: Why finding good tech blogs is hard

> It’s almost a cliche that good health comes from a balanced and varied diet. Something very similar applies to our information diet — we require a level of diversity in what we read — diversity interpreted in the broadest sense of variety and heterogeneity.
>
> What this might mean practically is that an ideal feed might appear less ‘palatable’ than the type built on engagement on a social media site, including articles that are longer and more challenging.

There are food presentation tips for parents of picky eaters, are their good examples for how we can build (or adapt with userscripts, etc.) feeds that encourage variety information types?

Aside: Less palatable also applies to learning and the benefits of desirable difficulty: Elizabeth L. Bjork and Robert Bjork's "Making Things Hard on Yourself, But in a Good Way: Creating Desirable Difficulties to Enhance Learning" https://bjorklab.psych.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/13/2016/04/EBjork_RBjork_2011.pdf
That's kinda besides the point. The point is that without some kind of ban (viable or not, political opposition or not, made by a dictator or made by public voting, yadda yadda), you're not likely to make progress on reducing carbon emissions.
I tried to automate a big chunk of property management (mostly commercial) over the past few years. The main thing I realized is that it's mostly a people business, and AI (or computers generally) are never going to stand over a vendor's shoulder and keep them honest (e.g. make sure they sweep up or don't scuff the walls), or have a difficult conversation about late rent with a tenant, or show up after hours when a pipe breaks, if only to show face with a tenant.

There are definitely workflow and process elements that can be automated. But if wealth management is any indication, there are a lot of people willing to pay a premium for having a person involved. Not sure why real estate would be different.

The wildcard in all this is the NAR court decision. If buyers have to pay for their own representation, that might make them shop around a little more.

That's a partial view into it. It's also required for getting basic things that have nothing to do with the government, e.g. a cell phone number, and this is an example of the oppressive problem with it.

Compare to, say, "A Wizard of Earthsea", where magic is explained in a different way that points out that while a wizard could transmute one substance into another, no wizard would, because of the far-reaching ramifications.

The system was not fully elucidated by any means, but the subtlety of it was suggested by such things as Ged deducing that the doorkeeper was one of the seven masters of Roke.
I think this is largely only true with Windows games from the '90s using still-nascent 3D apis. Many of these games were broken on modern versions of Windows by the time Vista came out.

Once you get to the early '00s, you can still find a lot of games that are broken, but the culprit is usually changes in hardware and driver behavior rather than Windows itself.
I don't know. Something something, "why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?" This is my feedback to you. All you have to do is say a number that should go into that spot that would be the smallest one that would convince you that the thrust of what they are saying is true. If you're saying there is no number, then I was mistaken for being charitable in my assessment of your sincerity.
I am not defending the realtor fees here. The free market should decide what is worth to anyone. My take is simply that an AI realtor doesn't do all that a (good) human one does.

Use 2 of the 'Adjustable Angle Hinge' to make a single diagonal across the rectangle.

At the midsection of the diagonal, install an 'Adjustable 180 degree' along with two more of the adjustable angles in each corner.

Would that approximate it? Sorry I'm not better at ascii art.

Tough to disentangle the capex vs opex costs for them. If they did not have so many other revenue streams, potentially dicey as there are probably still many untapped performance optimizations.

There is not that much complexity (circuit-wise) in the DRAM array itself apart from the fact that the sense amplifier is essentially an SRAM cell and not really an “amplifier”. Another layer of ridiculous complexity is how to interface that to the outside world without spending the precious die area of DRAM optimized process for complex interface logic or PHYs, so you get the only high-speed single ended parallel bus with weird voltage levels interface that is used in modern computers.
From listening to Michael Levin, he describes how in newts you can multiply the DNA of kidney cells (or some tubules around there). The cells become larger, so they adapt by forming the same size of tubule with fewer cells. If you keep duplicating the DNA, at some point a single cell is enough to form the tubule, which it does by bending around.
Depends on what the right way is to be honest. If the "right way" is moving the project into zero-knowledge proofs territory, it does push out a lot of the developers. It is not that cryptography in general is pushing people out in that case but ZKP complexity is.
Also, a huge percentage of deal volume comes from referrals. Successful realtors don't become so without thinking long-term.
Yeah I will admit that considering you have a daughter literally a month old, they can't yet express their individuality and separateness from others, but I think you should be prepared for these challenging questions far more early on than you'd expect.

Many parents aren't assigning a gender at birth. Many have same-sex parents. Many parents are hateful, and have kids who they've taught their hatred towards. "I don't know. I don't make the rules. I just follow." isn't something I'm personally comfortable with or passing on to my children. There's consequences to following the rules as much as breaking them (if they are even rules to begin with).
I think in this context western isn't meant as the geographical term but as the cultural term. In that sense Poland is a very western country.

The actual story of the cave rescue and the highly specialized cave divers that pulled it off is quite incredible, I highly recommend seeing it as it happens in The Rescue.

That's why in the sci-fi, utopian economics of the Star Trek Federation they have a "participation based" UBI, where your ticket to the Federation's generous UBI (made possible by effectively infinite material resources) is contingent upon you doing something productive. You can't just sit on your ass all day and collect it.

Now how they measure/judge what's "productive" and the fact that it works at all is what makes it sci-fi, but it highlights that responsibility is critical, even in a utopia.
but then it's no longer magic. it now becomes some sort of metaphysical science. magic is magic. once you understand it, it is no longer magic.

It actually varies a bit in the UK (always for the seller as you say) with a possibly surprising relationship with property value: properties at the top end typically pay a higher % than those in the middle or at the bottom.
Very cool, love the various tile sets (especially the 3d layer!)

One thing that tripped me up is the zoom -- the affordance for zoom in/out across most other mapping UIs is via mouse motions -- how come in your demo it's restricted to the +/- buttons? Perhaps I missed something...

Thanks for sharing this, looks very neat.
Fedify looks like exactly what I've been hoping for, for a long time! Thanks!
The primary driving factor on all these rates is the net take home for the seller. The reason why the total fee of 6% in a 3/3 split is because if this is done, then the seller will net about 10% higher than if they used no realtor. Similarly, for the buy agent half, they will get multiple extra % of home price above that 2.5%.

The structure of the MLS / commission system incentivizes sellers to take out these large fees because they will be rewarded for doing so. Only when the system is upgraded to allow sellers and buyers to find each other and pay market rates will the fees go down (we want to provide our own MLS in the longer term future)

I like the term post-Postel.

There are two reliability constraints that all software faces; security and interoperability. The more lax you are about validation, the more likely interoperability is. "That's weird, I'll just do whatever" is doing SOMETHING, and it's often to the end user's liking. But, you also enter a more and more undefined state inside the software on the other side, and that's where weird things happen. Weird things happening typically manifest as security problems. So the more effort you go to to minimize the possibility of entering a weird state, the more confidence you have that your software is working as specified.

Postel's Law made a lot of sense to me when developing the early Internet. A lot of people were reading imperfect RFCs, and it was nice when your HP server could communicate with a Sun workstation, even though maybe some bit in the TCP header was set wrong. But now? You just gotta get it right and push a hotfix when you realize you messed something up. (Sadly, I don't think it's possible. Middleboxes are getting more and more popular. At work, we make a product where the CLI talks to the server over HTTP/2. We also install Zscaler on every workstation. Zscaler simply blocks HTTP/2. So you can't use our product. Awkward.)

Maybe Google is holding back it's far superior, truly sentient AI until other companies have broken the ice. Not long ago there was a Google AI engineer who rage quit over Google's treatment of sentienet AI.
Yes, it make sense that you don't have your private collection of freak articles.

Show HN: Dynamic headless CMS with built-in CDP, AB testing and personalization
Hey HN,

I'm a developer and long-time OSS contributor. Over the years, I've implemented tons of headless CMSs to give product and marketing teams more autonomy. But there's always been a gap with CMSs when it comes to user interfaces.

I kept running into the same issues: poor developer experience, bad performance, no support for dynamic content, and needing vendors for AB testing or personalization, which just gets messy and expensive.

Versioning? One change and things break or need manual fixes. Accessing your own data? Good luck unless you're ready to pay extra.

So, I built a content API with an initial focus on React and Next.js. No vendors, no component changes. It comes with automatic versioning, TypeScript type generation, built-in A/B testing, analytics, and personalization. Think of it like `fetch` but with superpowers: it understands user context and delivers different content to different users.

Most solutions are way too expensive for startups, so we've got a generous forever-free plan. I'm also thinking of expanding it to early-stage companies with more traffic.

I'd love to hear any feedback, especially from developers!
For me also. But 3 days a year i need 2 programs side by side.

how so?

for this particular case I 100% agree. I grew up to accept a wide range of complexity at the cell level, but this blew through the roof.
Sorry but saying that it’s “customer desire” is nonsense. Most customers don’t have the skills to judge the work they receive. They know they need something done. They trust someone. How are they supposed to know if what they got was subpar? It’s like that in every profession. You have to trust that the person on the other side is professional and more often than not they’re not.
Otterbox is a meme. Might as well carve out a hole in a nerf football to stick your phone inside. The thin leather cases + glass screen protector do nearly just as much to protect the phone and also don't feel like garbage to use.

They've basically looking to automate the agent process but want to still take the 3% commission for shittier AI service. I as a buyer have to do the work of looking at the market stats in my area to determine a good offer, while they take all the commission. Absolutely ridiculous.
> The 6% fee was paid by the sellers, not the buyers. Buyers didn't pay anything to the agents.

It’s the buyer’s money, which becomes the seller’s money, which gets paid to the agents. Realtors need to stop lying about who pays the fees.

In that case just use one of the many map tile providers already out there. This is huge for people that don't want to pay but also can't justify using that much server resources just to self-host.

OP said “Websites were strictly for marketing/leadgen” which is just marketing sites. But pretty much all business sites are marketing. If you don’t have an e-commerce and you’re not a saas of some sort, you have a marketing site. It’s there for visibility and to provide information.

This is a query I did recently that got rejected for "safety" reasons:

Who are the current NFL starting QBs?

Controversial I know, I'm surprised I'd be willing to take the risk with submitting such a dangerous query to the model.
I'm the Halide cofounder who shared the silly rejection that blew up. I'm knee deep in our iPhone 16 update and tired, so I don't feel like engaging the discourse that comes up over and over around the App Store. Instead I'll just paste the follow-up I just posted to Reddit:

Hey everyone. Apple followed up with us to confirm this was a reviewer goof. Normally, they don't sweat that description when it's obvious it's a camera app. They're stricter on apps that don't really need camera access. This was human error, there's no need for us to change the description, so we're all good.
No, we don't NEED to digitalize society. We could due with less digital things for the betterment of society.
I don't think this is really true outside of YouTubers/influencers who may or may not be sponsored and this is coming from someone who both used to and still occasionally does go to car meetups in one of the most liberal parts of the US where there's a deluge of Tesla's and other electric cars on the streets.

For the common hobbyist/enthusiast electric vehicles are still mostly looked down on regardless of make/model. I don't know how many times I've heard some variation of "it's really a shame that company X made the spiritual successor for model Y as a hybrid/electric/automatic" and old ICE cars that cost a fraction of the price of even an electric supercar get more crowd attention at meets.

I think it's a combination of a few of things. For one, "raw" driving feel is still pretty much unmatched though this has much to do with older cars not having as many creature comforts / driving assists as newer cars do and not entirely an ICE vs electric issue outside of losing the manual gearbox and engine sound. Tuning/modding is also pretty much incomparable between the two- you will never get as much customization / feeling of a unique build on an electric car because there's simply far less you can actually tune and/or modify. And finally, cost, most hobbyists can't justify buying a performance oriented electric car at today's prices when an old ICE sports car as a wrenching project is far far cheaper and feel more fun to drive on twisty roads due to the driving feedback.
Yep! I did the same thing - ordered enough of them to keep my relatively destitute family online without paying an internet bill.

Dad had to pay for a phone bill, but we got internet on top of that free of charge thanks to AOL. And of course, whenever we were done with one of the CDs it got taped to my bedroom ceiling, reflective side down.

I don't know. "Hayao Miyazaki bad" is a loser idea. It is insane to me that this board will waste millions of characters litigating the opensourceyness of licenses, but when it comes to using their own ears and making a gut opinion millions are capable of doing every day: no.

For music specifically, until someone invents a viable alternative to Spotify, which is the same as inventing an audience that pays more for music, I am not sure how even if EzAudio were good - if anything existed which generated unlimited, high quality music - will change much.

Good music generation will strengthen, not weaken, Spotify. It will change whom gets paid by Spotify, in that the sons and daughters of record and banking executives can truly be talentless, but it will not change who is doing the paying.

Anyway, isn't this the status quo right now? There is maybe 10,000x more high quality music tracks than an individual could ever listen to in his lifetime practicably. And it does make Spotify a better value every day.
That's something that most tile viewers let you customize in the code. Sometimes you want to disable scroll wheel zoom so as to not interrupt page scrolling, like when the map takes up a large portion of the width of the page.
