huh, TIL. There's a Le Creuset outlet store near me and when I bought 2 more it never really clicked how different they were from my Lodge pans (outside of the enamel bottom).
Let's see, if I go to " ⋮ -> History -> Grouped History" on the top right of the Chrome browser, I see a "Search History" ( chrome://history/grouped ).

For example `8 hours ago: "autohotkey hotkeys"` with 4 links to pages which I visited while searching.

But this is a Chrome feature, not a Google Search feature. https://myactivity.google.com/myactivity does (sometimes? can't see it right now) have a grouping feature of all the searches made, but this is more of a search log than a search management feature.

So chrome://history/grouped is the closest to what I mean, but I can't pin or manage these history groups, enrich them with comments or even files, like pdf's which could then get stored in Google Drive, as well as get indexed for better searches.

How do dedicated servers work with skill-based matchmaking and ranking systems?
It really depends on the level of cheats. Someone using wall hacks has a huge advantage, depending on the game, but it doesn't take that much more skill to outplay them. But when you get to a point where the cheats aren't just a tool anymore but do most of the work, the skills required to still win get so astronomically high that you will lose every time unless you are a top 0.1% player. Which isn't really fun anymore. And many cheats nowadays are exactly that: practically unbeatable. Not a challenge, not hard but doable with enough work, just unbeatable
I feel like eventually most genres of competitive game will just have to end up adopting the model that the fighting game community came up with organically. Online play is fine for practice and unofficial tournaments, but if you really want to get good and make a name for yourself, you need to play at weeklies, monthlies, and in-person tournaments where the hardware and software are controlled by the tournament organizers.

It does help that cheating can only help so much in fighting games. I haven't thought about it much, but I guess you could have a macro that executes a devastating combo? Even then you need to be skilled enough at defense and hit confirming to even know when to press the "win the game" button. And most of the games I play have enough defensive options[0] that the player executing the combo might still need to react to something.

Outside our particular bubble EVs are not as popular as you might think they are by reading HN.

I have an EV, but I also have a couple ICEs at home between me an my wife. The EV is great for urban use, taking kids to school and everywhere else, buying groceries, but for road trips, anything beyond a single charge roundtrip radius we use our ICEs.

I will probably replace one of my ICEs with an hybrid, but not an EV, and probably when that time comes, I will sell both one of the ICE and the EV.

Expensive insurance, the fear of a battery fire, expensive suspension repairs, premature tires replacement. Lots of negatives that very few people think about. And really, I don't like the agressive driving style the instant torque encourages me to adopt.
I agree. Avalonia tries too much to be like WPF, but in my opinion, WPF was two steps forward and one step back (mainly due to XAML).
I remember watching a documentary on the GM EV1, it was also popular, but it was scrapped too.

Kids these days insist that they need the "app" of something, even when it's literally the exact same thing as the webpage.

Between this phenomenon and the refusal of many to close tabs in their browsers, I can't help but wonder if a huge percentage of the populace have never heard of or used Bookmarks on their web browsers before.

This is great, I can't wait to get rid of Google and all the crap that comes with it.

Hopefully this also provides a strong negative force against SEO and, again, all the crap that comes nowadays thanks to Google.
I want a timeseries-like chart that show its getting worse over time, hopefully referenced.
This is my take as well. Can I avoid microplastics? No. Can I make simple household decisions that minimize my intake? Yes. Stainless pots and pans, stainless or wooden tools, stainless silverware, ceramic plates and bowls.

Yes, it takes slightly longer to clean some stuff up, but at least I'm not eating as much plastic/PTFE.
A lot of folks here are saying price. They’re not necessarily wrong, list price IS an issue. However Ford dealers have implemented huge incentives to sell them. Leasing and Financing, one dealer offered me 20k off MSRP to buy one.

I would actually argue price isn’t the issue but is an easy low hanging fruit we can blame.

When people buy trucks they do so for security mentally and otherwise. Americans buy trucks to be able to haul around something once a year, to have enough room for the family, to tow things, to go on long road trips, to go over landing, to have the ability to go off-road as needed.

Much of America is rural and has dirt roads or other light infrastructure. During storms trees fall on roads and have to be moved or gone around. I lived 10 minutes from an urban center and my house had one road to/from. Once every 6 months a tree would fall on the road and block access.

Tl;dr people buy trucks for peace of mind, their capability, and rare events that can affect them. Because vehicles are such a huge purchase they buy more incase they need it.

The lightning is neither capable nor offers peace of mind due to its limitations in range, towing, and charging station availability.
> See where I’m going with this?

No. Could you elaborate?
Fun article. A bit of mental time-travel back to early teen years and struggling to learn native windows game programming. :)
This. Everyone in the South drives a truck, and most of those people have lumped "EV" in with "big city liberal". Cost is the other big factor and maybe range anxiety.

I think this is Elon's big problem. He already has all the liberal geeks interested in that tech, but has to expand and is thus trying to endear himself to the conservative crowd hoping the backlash in his main customer base isn't too bad. It's not working. The cyber truck is not only expensive and extremely poorly made, but it's also far too radical for most of that crowd.
Where is the hype cult if it "just" works for tons of people?

SEO spam is always going to focus on the biggest market, and by doing so they can be completely transparent and obvious to whoever they're not trying to fool.

I'd assume right now the SEO target is still mainly Google rather than ChatGPT, but that's only an "I recon" not a citation.

If and when ChatGPT does become the main target for SEO spam, then Googling may start giving good results again.

As completely off topic as my response will be, I'll at least keep to the theme of this thread.

Substitute any other pass-time for video games and I think most folks feel differently.

A pick-up game of basketball

A weekend mountain bike race

A corn-hole tournament at your local bar.

Someone cheating in any of these contexts would typically be upsetting. No one likes a cheater.

Video games are different because you can't call them out on it in real-time. You don't usually have any way to prove it. You also can't really escape it because there might be another cheater in the next lobby. In person, you have a lot more power or control over the situation (typically).
You probably have to browse to the next page or refine the search terms.

I doubt we'll see as tight consistency again but the cause and effect more being Windows XP released 6 years after the taskbar debuted in Windows whereas now there is closer to 30 years of stuff expecting to still run the same as it did back then rather than a change of goals.

Ask HN: What do you think would happen if Google and YouTube split?
Technologically speaking, what things would break?
Right now, I think of two services that would be impacted:
∙ Google TV/YouTube Movies & TV libraries
∙ YouTube Music's catalog

Sorry for not exactly understanding how both work, this is just more of what I asked in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41946885
The answer to your question is definitely no. Nobody who has ever ran a business for long would think that every layoff is due to CEO incompetence.
Following on from this, I looked at another of your articles, and learned of the existence of Andrey Muzychenko, and his reverse engineering efforts and making this https://github.com/k4zmu2a/SpaceCadetPinball

Crazy! Playing right now, so happy. Reverse engineering and the people who practice it are legends.
The maximum price the buyers would pay is lower than the minimum price the sellers would sell for. There's no market anymore.
As an F150 owner, I can largely agree. It certainly is crazy expensive. But if you look at the missions people have for trucks, hauling, towing, road trips with significant cargo, the charging factor just gets ugly. How is that battery life while towing your boat to the lake? How many charging stations are there near the boat ramp so that you can get home again? ??

Now, for the contractor bopping around town, charging is much less of an issue, and being able to power all of your tools 1/2 mile from the nearest power pole is very useful. But the Lightening was not priced at the “tradesman” trim level.

I actually like Perplexity a lot. It's really good for doing research. But if this new chatGPT search thing is better, I'm gonna switch.
>the Altair 8800 and how primitive the basic machine was. No keyboard or display - just a box with a control panel with blinken lights and binary toggle switches to enter data

just to be clear, at the very same time in history, the PDP-10 was a very large computer and cost orders of magnitude more, and pretty much looked the same

https://hackaday.com/2014/10/28/restoring-a-pdp-10-console-p...

You could easily automatically boot either of these computers (without having to enter the code through switches) by putting a ROM at bootup address that had the same code in it. That's still how computers work today.

They only gave you the switches because it wasn't established yet that everybody would want to put the same code in.

and the large IBM 360 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WS-WtjwAAO0 and the followon IBM 370 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLnvvOoWnzU&t=41s

the amazing thing about the Altair 8800 (intel 8080) was that simply, for the first time, you could have these same blinken lights at home and do all the mittengrabbin and gefingerpokin you want to https://www.ling.upenn.edu/~beatrice/humor/blinkenlights.htm...

within a very short time (same timeframe) the SWTPC 6800 (motorola 6800) came out and it chose not to have the lights and switches, it booted into a little debugger which was simplistic but would let you accomplish the same thing of entering in the code you really wanted. It required a terminal though, which raised the cost of entry. https://deramp.com/swtpc.html

The only reason we don't get the lights and switches any more is that they think we don't want them. But you and I know we do, so upvote this comment to record shattering levels and I'll share it with Apple and Dell and we'll get our real computing platform back again! Also, post your code for a good adblocker we can enter through the front panel.
I absolutely love F#! Two things though: adoption is low so you kind of can't use it professionally and most libraries are written in C#, so you kind of use them in a non idiomatic way.
No. This model doesn't really work for Battle Royale games, plus the userbase of modern gaming is so much larger and more casual than it was back in CS2 days or whatever you're imagining. People who only have time to play a couple matches at the end of the day do not want to spend half the time available hunting around for a "good server" appropriate to their interest/skill level or develop a personal relationship with the mods.
Is this a move to try to setup a pathway for getting some data on realtime trends? In other words something for quickly getting some model updates for hot prompts like like “what happened in the debate”.

Or is this something they’ve already solved?
I use three types of tools in the kitchen:

For anything that requires cooked goods to be intact, I use metal. Spatula, fish spatula, and a large spoon for serving.

For anything that is going to be stirred, I usually use wood. It's hard enough to scrape fond off the bottom of the pan but it isn't going to damage non-stick, to the little extent that I use it.

For viscous dishes, I use silicone. The ability to get the very corner at the bottom of the pot and actually get the stuff up is great.

I was into vidya about 15 years ago when I was in college.

Now that I've got all of the money to build a bitchin' system... I'm not into vidya.

The MBAs got to it and we now _must_ have a multiplayer game with anticheat because if we don't have anticheat how are we supposed to sell the tournaments surrounding the game to streaming audiences as a way to monetize an otherwise free-to-play* game?

We let people make this hobby into their whole lives and when you do that, it has to be monetized, and it begins to suck.
You go on a server. You're getting smoked. They kick you or you leave because the people there are way above you. Alternatively, you're too pro and you get bored and look for a server with higher average skill.
The disclaimers were an important part of that likely because it made it even easier to establish than using some sort of "reasonable person" argument - that doesn't make it the standard required though.
oh I thought you meant something like commenting under search result links like youtube videos.

I might be mistaken but i think ff mobile does something similar of grouping search session
The second car in the US though is disproportionately likely to be a beater; or much older vehicle. Combine that with that American vehicles have an average age of 12.5 years compared to 10.5 in France; and the picture is more like Americans keep their old cars around instead of selling/disposing of them.

That does not mean they will buy an EV and feel confident in relying on that second vehicle for long distance. If it's anything like the families I know, the beater's only job is to fill up short distance trips, to avoid wear on the newer car, until the day it "runs into the ground."
That's what I thought. In recent weeks, most of the code I’ve written has been AI-generated. But it was mostly JSDoc comments, type checking (I'm writing JavaScript), abstracting code if I see that I'm repeating myself a little too often, etc.

All things that I would consider tedious housekeeping, but nothing that needs serious reasoning.

It's basically a glorified LSP.
Honestly, Windows 2000 UI with the right click menu on the start button from Windows 10 onwards would be a near perfect Windows UI for me!

I know the 3D effects are considered dated now, but I found them very useful from a separation PoV.
LLMs really make it easy to quickly find documentation for me. Across a huge software project like Mediawiki with so much legacy and caveats, having an LLM parse the docs and give me specific information without me hoping that someone at Stackoverflow did it or if I'm lucky enough to stumble across what I was looking for.
I think it's more filling the niche that Google's self immolation in the name of ad revenue started. Besides kagi, there aren't really any solid search engines today (even ddg), and OpenAI has a reach way beyond kagi could dream of outside a billion dollars in marketing.
> The numerous successful academics at reputable universities that I know (including me) are uniformly mortified when our names are associated with mistaken interpretations in the press. Some of us (including me) simply stop doing press interviews because it happens so often.

Absolutely! You're one of the good ones! I just wish you were in the majority. :-(

Edit: that's unfair. I don't know if you're in the majority or minority. I want to believe that most academics are still just silently plugging away and doing good work. It just really feels like things have shifted to the huckster side of the spectrum, and/or that is what is rewarded.

Is there a new api model version for search available ?
Windows 2000 was this for me, but it's true that you could opt out of the bubble gum skin and get a more conventional look from XP if you preferred that.
That's not a thing you can do on many games nowadays. I assume this comment is also related to this thread https://www.theverge.com/2024/10/31/24284644/apex-legends-lo...

There's no concept of "server" or "Change lobby" on Apex or other Battle royales.

You just queue up for a game, which lasts ~20 minutes. As you are in a 3 player team if you disconnect from the game you get a temp ban penalty, since that also degrades other players experience. So there's no disconnecting freely once a game has started.
Now imagine you're playing for 10-15 minutes just to die without really having any chance. That gets frustrating, really quickly, since winning is close to the only "reward" you get from playing the game.

It's not like a classic COD or Battlefield game, where you can feely leave or join any game/server. Once you're in you're somewhat committed, and you have no control over where or with whom you're playing against.
And when you need to raise capital? Tough sell.
but this can start with Windows and sit in your system tray, sending you popup reminders!
I think they are orthogonal models. With dedicated servers, people sort of self-organize into groups of people they want to play with, maybe based on skill or fun or something else. Maybe you know who runs the server IRL, or you just randomly tried the server. Maybe you just get along with that group of people, maybe they're a group that is dedicated to improving and that's exactly what you want.

I think parent's point is that you don't need skill-based matchmaking and ranking systems if you give players the ability to self-organize.

Ask HN: How does Reddit admin moderation work?
Anyone here knows how Reddit's admin moderation works internally?

Are posts about a country routed to a team in the user's country?

Is there some system in Reddit for users to tell Reddit management, "your admin moderation is acting suspicious, maybe you should check it out"?

For background, I've been experimenting by reporting posts and comments, across the political compass, related to a particular country.

I'm finding that the far-right content I report (which actually break their content policies related to identity-based hate and promotion of violence on vulnerable groups) are often handled quite favorably. Mere removal of the comment without any penalty to the user, and sometimes not even removal.

But some users who criticized such content using memes or sarcasm have even ended up with temporary suspensions.

Should I look into Reddit alternatives like Lemmy for more fairness in moderation? Or does it have the same / different set of moderation issues? Any experiences?
Yeah but look how _cool_ those css effects look. What, people actually use keyboards to navigate?
Yes, that's really stupid
Search in the internet worked because people wanted to generate content to attract people to display ads or any other reason, but they wanted to attract people.

If now my content is going to be ingested and shown by a LLM or AI agent, what's the purpose to give it for free? I know it won't happen, but I would love if this type of agents have to pay to show a summarization of another website. It's only fair when done in mass like this.
What I find incredible is that Google has had the knowledge and resources to do this for at least five years, yet they're still milking the "old cow". It reminds me of Intel sitting on their money while a near-bankrupt AMD sped past them.
Ranking/competitive systems truly are a cancer on games.

So many quality of life standards have been sacrificed just to let jackasses feel superior to others in what is supposed to be a fun game.
Very important to raise awareness of LC! Covid isn't over!
I like it. It's clean, fast, and the results seem solid. Google search has become so bloated with sponsored results that I've been hoping for a tool that could provide better results than DDG or Bing.

I'm going to use this as my daily driver for a few weeks.

The contemporary web is basically an epiphenomenon of Google, and they've failed to defend it. I hope OpenAI puts a huge dent in their market share.
Plenty of times the answer is yes.
>Cheating must be detected serverside. Never trust the client, this is basic security.

As long as rendering happens on the client, it's going to require client-side anti-cheat to stop players from looking through walls or adding aimbots.

Client side rendering means the client has information like the location of the opponent even when the opponent is not visible. The server is unable to tell on its own whether the client is using this information inappropriately.
I don't think a lot of people realize how few people are "rich" in the sense of not being impacted by the labor market, or how virtually all of them are retirees. CFOs aren't looking forward to a massive shift in the labor market for accountants any more than CPAs. Warren Buffet has a "job," he writes those letters for BH and oversees the firm's investments at a high level... and most of the people who live off of investments have children in the workforce. Even most people whose children live off of their investments have kids in the (nonprofit) workforce.
They tried upgrading from Windows 98 to Windows XP, hoping that it would work like upgrading from Windows 98 to Windows 2000 did, but it didn’t. Then they realized that upgrading from Windows 98 to Windows 2000 and then to Windows XP might work, and it did.

It’s important to realize that Windows XP was the successor both to the NT line (Windows NT/2000) as well as to the DOS-based consumer-oriented line (Windows 95/98/ME), hence upgrading from Windows 98 to Windows XP is the natural path, whereas upgrading to Windows 2000 in between is kind of a detour.
Pssst, they are probably here reading
