How is this different than elasticsearch and solr? That’s not any kind of challenging question… I really don’t know that much about these different tools and I just want to know what this one is about.

Also: I noticed that it mentioned images… does it do any kind of OCR or summary of them?
As it's only 20 buses out of over 8000, you're not too likely to spot one on a visit.

They are marked, but they're still red buses that don't look much different to the rest. London restricts the way public buses can be painted (mostly red), and even efforts like this don't seem to be exempted.

Microsoft did this.
I went through a DEI loop at Microsoft (found out later) and was ghosted by one manager, another manager asked a leetcode hard with 20 minutes to implement it, another asked a leetcode hard and DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THE ANSWER until I walked them through it step by step (they had never seen the answer before).

Less you think I'm complaining about algorithmic interviews, I passed Google and Netflix technical rounds just fine.

Microsoft managers were the most disinterested group I've ever interviewed with, and it was only later that I found out I was picked to interview for multiple teams because of a DEI recruiter, and then found out that MS had initiatives forcing managers to interview people from underrepresented backgrounds.

Finally, almost everyone of the above mentioned interviewers was just not that bright. Seriously, sell your microsoft stock. The IQ difference between the people at Netflix and Google compared to MSFT was astounding.
It's interesting seeing reactions to this. My first take was "of course he appointed Dana White, he's a big MMA dork now." The connection to Trump didn't occur to me til later.

It's time to level up in this arms race. Let's stop delivering html documents, use animated rendering of information that is positioned in a scene so that the user has to move elements around for it to be recognizable, like a full site captcha. It doesn't need to be overly complex for the user that can intuitively navigate even a 3D world, but will take x1000 more processing for OpenAI. Feel free to come up with your creative designs to make automation more difficult.
Yes, class is the root divide. However, rejecting that fact is dogma for the people running these DEI programs.

This is intentional because then DEI is intended to be a self-help religion for the corporate class designed to deflect the externalities that they produce, and not about actual material conditions. And that's at its best. At its worst, DEI is insulting and infantilizing to "marginalized communities."
No, it isn't.

(1) California property tax stays local, and is not pooled,

(2) However, due to Prop 13, property taxes are very small in California, and just over half of total funding for school districts comes from the state,

(3) Distribution of funding (either just the state funds or total funding) is not equal per-student across districts, with per student expenditures ranging widely across districts.
How is this flagged??? I read HN every day and follow openai closely. So surprised it took me 2 days later to find this only by searching deliberately for it.

I have read the comments about users flagging it, but I think this one deserves an override because it is extremely relevant that a CEO of a top tech company is involved. If this was Nadella or Musk I think it would be unflagged, no?

I have seen more discussion this week on HN about Mangione than this.
> I think a comment of his was "kimchee flavored butter is not pleasant."

Hah, I saw video recipes of kimchi and gochujang-garlic flavored butter last year. Tho probably both were eye-catching online culinary fads rather than practical products.

Woman whose channel I follow uses both plastic and ceramic containers for kimchi - both include a small valve in the lid to allow exchange of air. And of course cabbage lands in that special fridge; she said she uses it also for storing vegetables and rice
A bit skeptical about the article because in Ghana, Starlink is mostly used by the elites. Majority of people stick to mobile data or the local ISPs because it is known to be cheaper. Also, I wonder which fixed ISP the writers speak of (with respect to Ghana) because those price ranges seem a bit too extreme to be that popular in Ghana. And also, way more expensive than what the local ISPs provide.

Edit: It seems I might be wrong and the perceived high cost comes from the actual starlink device and not the internet plan. The article just compares the internet plan prices. The cost of the device and the restrictions on usage (can’t use in different locations etc) serves a deterrent to the average Ghanaian anyway.
I've been using Kagi now for about a year, at the $5/mo. level, on browsers both at home and at work. Only once have I run out of searches before the end of the month (though I have no idea how often I've come close). I'm not sure it's worth $10 a month either, though it's the only search engine I use and I'm very happy with it. Depends on whether I run out of searches before monthly renewal or not, I guess.

+1 for mindbug and its extensions. The games are quick and nervous, players only have 3 pv.

The card effects are interesting, the illustrations illarious and the interractions a lot of fun.

The twist of the game, the mindbug itself, is a blast of bluffing and gambling that garanties some smiles.

Limited to 2 players but a great small box to have on all occasion of you are into that kind of stuff.

There's quite a few different variants of kimchi, including non-spicy ones, known as white kimchi (백김치): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baek-kimchi

There's also diced radish kimchis (깍두기), sometimes non-spicy as well.
You know the conversation is going well for you when you resort to citing the "meaning" of a name instead of, you know, base reality. Who needs the territory, I've got my map right here.

Speaking of meaning, the best I can make of your point is that you're using a much broader definition of "metrics" than the rest of this conversation, and in particular broader than Prometheus (remember context? very important for "meaning"!) supports. That or you really just don't know what a "trace" is (in this context).
SFFA v Harvard (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Students_for_Fair_Admissions_v...) outlawed affirmative action in public institutions, but I think most legal observers assume that if someone brings a case against the same thing in private institutions to the Supreme Court, they'll outlaw it there too.
I do blame the servers in a way, they are the ones demanding the requesting of tips on more, and more things. That's how the tipflation began and that is how it is growing. Now it has been said some hotels are asking you to tip when checking in. Consumers hate the pressure and so I don't think it's the businesses that are pushing the increase in tipping.

Ask HN: What Process/Applications Do You Use for Todo/Knowledge Management?
Like many of you, I have spent more time trying out different applications in the todo list/knowledge management space without finding a solution that has stuck. I've tried aggressive calendar scheduling, todo.txt, Vikunja, a paper planner, Logseq, Notion, and likely others along the way! I now have the suspicion that the issue I'm having isn't the tooling, but the process. The solution I've stuck with the longest has been Vikunja, but I felt limited by it as it is strictly a todo application, and doesn't support any form of knowledge management (by design, which makes sense!)

So I'm wondering, what processes do people follow for their todo list management and knowledge management? What resources have you learned how to use your applications of choice?

My requirements (in rough priority order):

- Mobile + Desktop support (PWA, web UI, native application, all fine!)

- Searchable

- Allows me to keep track of todos with priority ordering and sublists

- Allows me to easily capture one-off ideas, as well as expand them into richer, more detailed concepts

- FOSS + Self-Hostable

The issues I've faced with previous solutions are:

- No integration between my todos and knowledge!

- Not being able to search

- Not being able to quickly capture ideas/notes/todos

- Not having a clean(-ish) UX to navigate between points of info/see what my next priorities are
Fine, but recall what started this discussion, this issue of land acknowledgements (which I agree are absolute peak stupidity which literally managed to piss off everyone on all sides - the right thought it was useless virtue signalling, and lots of actual indigenous people pretty much agreed, considering it a vacuous gesture). For all intents and purposes, native tribes owned that land before settlers kicked them off and said you couldn't live there anymore.
It ooks like you're right. A quick check shows Intel outsourced Arrow Lake (or parts of it) to TSMC.

As a side note, I wish Intel would move to a different non-lake naming scheme.
Why don't you actually firm up your original claim with examples, because as stated large numbers of people disagree with it for good reason, and it's not clear what you mean by 'left wing'.

>> Well, it turns out what they said was true for them, but is not true for people like me, who can't visualize to save their life.

I used to be exactly like this - I could not visualize anything. Which was very perplexing for young me - I was astonishingly good at math (winning some country level math competitions even) but could not get past some arbitrary but somehow low level geometry problems. Then it struck me - I could not see the solutions in my head, only on paper, which drastically limited my search space.

But latley after years od doing other thing (including more artsy stuff like drawing) I discovered that I was wrong - its it possible to learn, its just that some people gets this faster and with little effort. For me it was just a other few thousend hours of doing staff that accidentally expanded my visualization ability and then "miracle" happend.

The same was with my supposed tone deafness - guess what, I only believed my self info being tone deaf (real tone deafness is very bery rare). I just was lazy in this departament (in building my ability to perceive tones).
Large scale public housing is driven by the state or federal governments, which can simply ignore NIMBYs and local zoning laws. The issue with public housing is not NIMBYism.

Did you even read the links posted? The study for ivermectin states everything is speculation. So why is anyone challenging me when they didn't read the studies?

>> Unfortunately, there have been no reports of clinical trials of IVM as an anticancer drug. There are still some problems that need to be studied and resolved before IVM is used in the clinic.

The method of action of ivermectin is well known. Lots of articles state it works against COVID-19, but clinical trials have proven this to be false. Yet people still cling FOOLISHLY to that idea, and now creeping into cancer. But, it's GREAT against parasites!

>> What is important, ivermectin does not cross the blood-brain barrier, and therefore, does not affect mammals, including humans, in which GABA receptors are located mainly in the central nervous system. Nevertheless, accumulation of ivermectin in the human brain has been observed after administration of doses about 100 times higher than the recommended one.

The institution of land ownership is very important in farming societies, where land is what produces wealth and health.

Societies on the hunter/gatherer spectrum also value their hunting grounds, but in far less strict ways.

I'm pretty sure the indigenous peoples that lived by farming had well developed concepts of land ownership, but they were the minority when Europeans arrived.
Charles Lehman was on the Ezra Klein show recently[1] and had a useful definition for disorder, re: your first point.

This may not be exactly the quote, but it was something like "Disorder is domination of public space for private purposes."

As an SF resident, that really resonated; day-to-day quality of life here (for me, at least) feels much more impacted by that type of "disorder" than "homelessness" generally (obviously we need housing solutions too)

I do not go to a place with fees added on. I understand why they are doing it, and they are well within their right to do so, but I feel there is still an underhandedness to it. Just raise the prices, flat if possible, and make the billing as simple as possible.

I am ok with tipping, but I am not ok with being asked to tip on top of a mandatory fee.
They could issue more stock, but Alphabet has decided to keep the number of outstanding shares the same, it's a thing they do for shareholders.
That's a good insight, but, at the same time, it's not at all difficult to believe that a Brazilian judge in Brazil banned Twitter "without American backing."

That Monroe Doctrine jab also makes zero sense. The Doctrine doesn't hold that other countries in the Western hemisphere shouldn't be allowed to decide matters of law and trade policy for themselves.

All in all, what Thiel is trying to say is terribly unclear. Open to multiple Straussian interpretations, I guess.
You are confusing policies and qualifications, its on the engineers to decide the qualifications and HR to run policies on sourcing.
The backlash Wolfram always gets bugs me a little bit. He's certainly verbose and self-aggrandizing, but he's thinking deeply about interesting questions. There are endless blog posts from dilettantes speculating about LLMs without putting in any real leg work to test their beliefs. Wolfram's blog posts are always thought provoking and backed by some real effort to explore the topic in novel ways.

As far as I can tell he's not upset by lack of recognition from the scientific community and he puts his ideas out there for criticism so it seems like he's making a valuable contribution. I don't think scientists should be pre-judged on the perceived importance of their work as that leads to group-think and a lack of exploration.
I think it was pressure from employees and those pushing for higher minimum wage; $20 for example.
-40°C is extremely rare in Southern Finland where most people live. In Helsinki the average temperature is about -6°C in the coldest months of the year, and at worst it might drop down to around -15 to -25°C (depending on the year).
A chest freezer with a temp controller would be quite similar. You might need a fan and simple heat source as well. For about $200 I was able to buy and setup one for beer fermentation.
My one weird kimchi fusion experiment that's worked out beyond all reason was making a classic cheese-crusted German pasta casserole with kimchi in the mix ... it's so addicting it probably needs to be regulated.
Companies deciding not to spend money with X because consumers objected to ads there more than they bought products from ads there is "organized cartel like boycotts" and Zuck deciding to ditch decade old programmes because the new President hates them and him and his platform (and owns a rival platform too!) is freeing him to do what he believed all along!? I've heard it all now.

There is no standard LED bulb for external vehicle lighting. Every car with LED lights has proprietary lighting. Only halogens and HIDs have standard bulbs. LEDs cannot replace halogens because they don't project light from the same location or radiate it in the same pattern. Projector and cutoffs do not solve this problem.
> lack of educational resources

Could you please explain this part? I am not sure how you meant it. Is the main problem that the resources are not in the language of your tribe? Or is that a lack of educational resources regardless of language (e.g. simply not enough textbooks to give to each child)? What kind of educational resources do you wish you had?

It does require lowering standards and quality, by definition, because in the absence of DEI pressure campaigns they'd have been selecting suppliers based on standards and quality by default. Any other criteria inherently trades off against that.

And you seem to know that's true because your claim slides smoothly from "getting something of lesser quality" to "lowering standards below acceptable levels" which aren't the same thing. The latter phrasing means the products are worse but you consider the lowered quality to be an acceptable tradeoff.
Coffee Lake was cute; but at least it made more sense than a lake made of arrows.
They also do a lot of compulsory psychiatric detention: https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/psychiatric-bulletin...

> Finnish mental health legislation takes a medical approach to compulsory measures, emphasising the need for treatment of psychiatric patients over civil liberties concerns... Finland has the highest rates of detention per 100 000 inhabitants, about 214 compared with 93 in the UK and 11 in Italy.

> If at the end of the 3-month period it is considered likely that detention criteria are still fulfilled, new recommendations MII and MIII are filed and the renewed detention is then valid for 6 months. However, this second period of detention has to be immediately confirmed by a local administrative court.
