I agree if Etsy is a 100% commerce focused, but they aren't. Key to their success has been their ability to build up a community and sell stuff. Even if you weight down the impact of clicks and favourites the effect is still negative with less exploration and interaction happening. What would be the long term impact of sales of this reduction?

this is wonderful, much better than what I had imagined, thank you.
The last I heard the NYT had an estimated value roughly equal to that of the real estate it occupies (i.e. the paper, website, etc. are worth nothing).
They filed a Chapter 11 Bankruptcy which means they don't have to fully liquidate to their creditors and also means their debt is not absolved, merely that there is a trustee appointed to oversee their assets while allowing the business to continue. They could still end up filing a Chapter 7 in which they would have to liquidate and would mean the end of the company as we know it but they are not there yet.
If are attempting it please post your thoughts here.

I will give more hints if nobody pops it.
It's stupid because it is short sighted. Media companies continually try to stop new technology, like TV and VHS, because they are scared and unwilling to evolve. Only to find out a decade after trying to stop the technology that they are actually making more money with the new tech.

A 10 year exclusive with content locked into cable or satellite subscriptions short sighted, they are trying to stop the future. A future which will ultimately cost them less, leading to more profit.

Ten years is a long time; 10 years ago the iTunes store didn't exist, 14 years ago HBO had never broadcast in HD, 12 years ago the iPod didn't exist, 6 years ago the iPhone didn't exist, 6 years ago Netflix streaming didn't exist, 6 years ago Hulu didn't exist, 5 years ago Android didn't exist.

Ten years from now the technology landscape and the way we consume media will be vastly different. Locking into a 10 year deal and trying to fight technology is stupid [in my opinion, because everything I say in inherently my opinion].

Well that link works but the filtering doesn't... If I search for "Javascript" W3Schools is top result despite the fact I blocked it.
love the user page and writing experience.

quick thoughts:

formatting would be a distraction

include "media box" (music/img/url/vimeo)

would be nice to get lost inside of throwww following threads, authors, subjects... or else make twitter serve as the navigation through different "throwww's"

maybe instead of downloading the posts, they "evaporate" within... 2 days? temporality is cool and goes along with the name.
The first couple of iterations weren't very good. The Pre3 otoh is pretty good.
i don't see how this will make polaroid relevant again, as there are already loads of services which do exactly that online.

i also doubt the business model. you need to sell boatloads of printouts every month to operate 2000 square feet retail shops in top locations. i just don't see how this can ever break even.

I guess different strokes for different folks. For me and the vast array of different specialist subreddits I use day-to-day, not only to consume but also to help others and participate in discussion I find the situation as I find it currently unique on the internet and incredibly hard to replicate. Added to that the karma system which consistently promotes good content (it's amazing what people will do to get karma, it works amazingly as an incentive).

To me the NYTimes is "articles with pictures". I can get that on a dozen more sites on the internet. And without a paywall.

You can't ignore the fact that Cable is only the highest bidder because they have entrenched government-granted but relatively unregulated monopolies. The online-only services aren't competing with Cable on equal terms. Regulatory action shouldn't be off the table when the local cable monopolies start moving up the supply chain.

The language originates from 4chan, where it is also used ironically. I get rather annoyed when I hear people dismiss 4chan as homophobic, because under the surface, it's actually not. Then again, if Reddit is starting to mimic 4chan in terms of its language and linguistic memes, either 4chan's reputation is ill-deserved, or Reddit's reputation will start to resemble 4chan's.

This doesn't make any sense. Did they ask you to send them a photo of your TV?
Looks very clean. I wonder how do I upload images? Or is this only for pure text blogging?

Doesn't really matter why, though, right? They had more money to throw at them, so they got the deal. It's not fair, but it's not about fairness.
It looks like support for in-line data in ext4 is comming to mainline in 3.8:

http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTI1N...

As this has been discussed for quite some time, I actually thought it was already enabled in ext4 -- apparently not.

BTRFS supports "space efficient packing of small files" - by suballocating blocks. Not sure what the real mimimum size on disk for a file is though -- but apparently you can approach header+<data> size both on btrfs and ext4 (and on BSD under UFS2 afaik).

Wordpressdotcom added Infinite Scroll to blogs. I turned it off but it still has it when you want to see older posts. How much I hate it! I spend more time staring at a damn spinning wheel than seeing more posts when Search won't bring up what I need (due to not recalling an exact keyword). I wonder if this was the case with Etsy too? The only Infinite Scroll I've seen that works properly has been with Twitter. Even Bloglovin (which I use for RSS) has a one-second or so stutter that can be very annoying.
I hate this sort of joke. It reinforces the behavior for people who don't see it as a joke. And there's a lot of them.

"Oh, it's OK and funny to call people faggots"

I wish regular Redditors would stamp this shit out.

No, I'm not being unnecessarily precious or PC. I used to laugh at distasteful misogynistic jokes (and worse) but somebody pointed out to me that joking about it normalizes it. And to the depraved part of society the joke is missed and they see it as support for their depravity.

Yes, if you're going to target Linux, all of that's part of the deal. A game should primarily depend on OpenGL+X+audio, and while these do change, if the program works on one distribution of Linux, it tends to work on the next. The worst issue I've found is that when a new distribution first comes out, it can be glitchy, also I had problems with Intel's Sandy Bridge architecture when it first came out, but the same scope of problem did not occur cross-distribution, given the same kernel.
Good thought, andrew, but it still doesn't work for me. It's hard to wake up from a nap, and I'm dazed - and tired! - afterwards. I've tried this all times of day, and each time it's like being clobbered by a baseball bat.

"Comcast insisted that they needed to install a cable box, I told them I don't have a TV, can't I just pay for the service, no a technician needs to come out and install a cable box."

Why didn't you just borrow a small tv or simply get a elgato for your PC:

http://www.elgato.com/elgato/na/mainmenu/products/EyeTV-Hybr...

Assuming there is a cable where you live and that you are willing to pay for the service (which you said you were) this doesn't appear to be to difficult of a problem to solve.

It's perfectly understandable that Comcast would require someone to own a TV. Their contracts with providers probably require that and it doesn't really matter whose idea that is. They consider that a certain class of customer. They have the right to deliver their product over the web as long as someone is also a cable subscriber and the language probably defines very clearly what constitutes a cable subscriber.
Your evidence that reddit is replaceable is you've used similar sites (most of which are basically dead in the water at this point). But in the same paragraph you exempt the new york times from that same reasoning. There are several large high-quality newspapers out there competing with the new york times (washington post, wall street journal, la times, chicago tribune, etc). I love the times, but "it may be less unique than you might think."

If anything, the internet has made the media extremely fungibile. Social networks are the opposite - as they grow the ability to switch between them becomes more difficult.

> How is this a negative effect? The amount of stuff that users are buying should be pretty much the _only_ metric you care about.

Items ordered is most helpful for making decisions when in context. It's awfully difficult to gauge health or make decisions with in isolation. A superficial short-term return may not be as beneficial on other levels - strategically, operationally, vendor ecosystem...

The article and other commenters have pointed at some, a few more more basic things worth knowing:

- return visit behavior. If infinite scroll diminished visitors favoriting items, what's the relative conversion for visitors returning to a list of favorites vs not? (features like this, Amazon Wish List etc, usually perform pretty well).

- avg order value. Visitors are buying the same number of things, but are they making the same $$ per order? Preserving avg order value but increasing item count also increases operations overhead (which could be worth it to encourage a broader vendor pool...)

- Clicks to items helps Etsy identify interesting/trending items&sellers independent of sales (move your data knowledge upstream!). Also increases the data size on individual users to build a taste profile and surface more items of interest at an individual level
A country that portrays itself as a beacon of light in a dark world ought to judge itself by both its direction and the extreme cases, not by its relative position and the median cases.
Nonsense. Why shouldn't AIs be possible in completely different environments than humans? The assumption that bodily experience is required is just wrong. Why shouldn't an AI be able to live on the internet, for example?

Also, human brains are actually also just computers in a box with some wires to the outside world. We can not even be sure that the outside world exists, we only model it based on the signals that come through the wires.
If they enforce having a technician come out then they will notice when they go to set it up.

I moved house recently, despite setting it all up myself in my new house I had to pay $100 for a technician to come out and press a few buttons to make the smart card work for the new address. (Australia)

I would consider you to be very lucky to have not run into a firewall that auto-blocks all UDP. Both my high school and my first employer blocked UDP altogether. (The former went as far as only white-listing outbound TCP connections on ports 21, 80, and 443, with ports on the latter two being transparently redirected through a very restrictive filter.)
No. I'm just going on the assumption that everyone would like to see traffic to their site, and I make it clear in the footer that all screenshots are the copyright of their owners.

You'd take that back if you saw my karma level. I use selfcontrol.app to keep Reddit at bay.

I've been a member of lots of better communities... there's only so far you can get 'attached' to people who are anonymous.

Your entire argument is that a venue to discuss things is more important than the source of the discussion topic. I just can't agree with that. Throw out the water cooler and I'll take my discussion to the coffee machine. But throw out the discussion topic (Exposé on corruption at the FDA in the NYT), and water cooler or coffee machine, what will we talk about... Honey Boo Boo?

There was recently a similar issue with the article for the singer Paloma Faith. To cut a long story short, Ms Faith claimed to have been born in 1985, and given that she claimed this fairly consistently, it was reported as fact in a range of publications.

Every official record, however, has her date of birth in 1981. On the talk page for the article, people were producing her record on the births index, on company incorporation documents, there was even someone who went to school with Ms Faith confirming she was born in 1981.

In the last couple of weeks the case went to dispute resolution and the issue has finally been resolved (i.e. her date of birth has been changed to 1981), but I was shocked by how pedantic certain users were being, refusing to correct the issue for technical reasons (the official documents are not accessible free-of-charge so could not be used as references, etc.)
or if he doesn't even feel like passing a custom comparator every time and just wants to default to increasing numerical order:

I'd buy a Surface if Sublime Text 2 were cross compiled for ARM.

edit: I'm also a bit confused, the XDA thread seems to imply that a user could side load an RT app that would launch an unchecked application [1]... meaning some sort of side-loadable RT app that could springboard a launcher for other ARM compiled apps.

Ironically there could be a community package manager and accompanying RT app and beat MS to the punch (if they were ever to go in that direction which is arguable)

edit2: Ah, a bit later in the thread it's revealed that the resulting cmd prompt still runs from the RT apps context, with its limitations and lifespan.

Very cool, this could be what svbtle should have been.

"because they have entrenched government-granted but relatively unregulated monopolies."

Have you ever thought why it is they have those monopolies?

Because they were granted to them as a right in order to justify having to string cable into homes to deliver a product that was nascent at the time in many communities.

Let's say I come up with an idea to wire up an office building to deliver a new service (blue mood lighting to offices). And I get a chance to bid on that along with other people. I win the bid and therefore I get to deliver the product after I pay the cost of installing it and the risk that only a few offices will want the product.. That doesn't mean that bad deals weren't cut in some places. But cable has a monopoly for a reason.

This company for reference went bust many years ago despite having a virtual monopoly on broadband in offices:

I got the impression from the article that their experiment had very little planning from the statement about it being to prove it was good and then celebrate. This probably means it was a straight X% of traffic A/B test and the results were only analysed deeply when it wasn't a positive result. This is speculation only based on the tone of the article.
I helped out with this project at Etsy and obviously our implementation intended for the back button to work as expected. Our initial rollout worked fine in most browsers but certain older versions of IE were discovered to have issues. Of course, the experiments that Dan referenced in his talk were in regards to known-good implementations that did not have issues with the back button.

Anyone who has worked on infinite scroll knows that the back button is a "interesting" technical challenge.

Obliterate Procrastination (Read This Later)
Python is still used alongside C++ and Java (and some Go) but primarily for prototyping and small utility scripts. A Google engineer explains:

"Well, simple common sense is going to limit Python's applicability
when operating at Google's scale: it's not as fast as Java or C++,
threading sucks, memory usage is higher, etc. One of the design
constraints we face when designing any new system is, "what happens
when the load goes up by 10x or 100x? What happens if the whole planet
thinks your new service is awesome?" Any technology that makes
satisfying that constraint harder -- and I think Python falls into
this category -- should be discouraged if it doesn't have a very
strong case made in its favor on other merits."

To me, the fact that these expertly-created hoaxes on Wikipedia have eventually been discovered is a testament to the strength of the Wikipedia model. It's certain that there are still weaknesses, as have been outlined in other comments on this story, but if we were to be given a crystal ball to verify all of recorded human history, we'd surely find that a staggering amount of it is wholly false winners-write-the-history-books nonsense.
