> Now I just have to check the comments. The problem is that the comments section can be fully managed by the uploader. It's easily possible for them to delete negative comments or even to add filters to do so automatically.

There's nothing wrong with old content per-se. A true crime channel, for example, can have a lot of old content that's still interesting to watch. And thing for science and comedy. No need for any strange community feelings or bra

Not only is it possible that your users grow, it's also quite possibly that your application complexity does. If you suddenly need to run expensive queries joining multiple datasets or do some heavy computation, your apps resource usag

Stable coins work on the principle that the issuer has the equivalent value of the minted coins as backing and will always trade these coins in or sell them for their dollar value. Therefore, nobody has the incentive to sell below their val

I guess it's mostly just about putting people in a stressful management situation to get them used to it. Not much of an ultimate lesson there, just some experience so they can keep calm once they encounter it in the real world.

25 years ago, the cars also didn't have much crash safety compared to today and they did survive without seatbelts and airbags in metal cages without crumple zones, too!* Hell, 80 years ago planes took off without any electronics and w

For me, it's lunch breaks and coffee machine chit-chat. Just by talking to your colleagues daily and meeting people you'd usually never work with you get a lot of knowledge transfer - they talk about problems they need to solve, i

Latency is far worse with AJAX. Also, browsers nowadays are much more powerful, both in rendering capabilities and Javascript engines. Servers have become a lot cheaper, too, which makes hosting this for free far more viable. Lastly, while

Technically Amazon Mechanical Turk, although the compensation will probably not be good at all.

With what intention? Honest question, I don't see a strategic advantage in posting this on a Friday. More of a disadvantage, actually, with less visibility.

Well, there's always the strategy of 'take the payouts, go insolvent in case the event really happens'. But, on the other hand, such a high possible payout would probably come with insane premiums that might make it viable (f

I think the problem described is the following: 1. A researcher puts out a model with bad initial parameters/data. 2. The chain workers/miners train the model as request. 3. The model fails at the test or verification dataset due

In case anyone else is put off by the link referencing an answer that then links to something else with most likely higher hardware requirements that are not stated, the end of the rabbit hole seems to be here: https://github.com

Because a normal thread can be made usable by things like threadreader and that obviously undermines the whole point of blogging on Twitter ;-)

To completly replace artists, the model would need to fully understand speech and have a good model of the world. The failure cases of the monk and the negation show pretty clearly that the model does something more akin to a keyword search

Well, given that they dedicated their first few paragraphs to HN commenters, I guess they do care.

Sure! There are no definitive numbers, but we have a few data points: Dang mentions quite often that HN has a very international readership, for example: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23363430 and https://

I think it's very easy to vastly underestimate how much brainpower went into making JS fast. It's looks like a very slow language on the tin, with it's interpreter, associative objects and overall structure, but, given how mu

Only ~30% of people on HN are from the US and I'd assume that the number of non-US people who watched NCIS in the original language are comparatively low.

The problem with scanners is that they usually have a pretty high false positive rate. When automatically opening the PR, they are basically putting the human review part on the maintainer (burdening them with additional and possibly useles

You'd probably buy the music as a download file from an official store (like Beatport). In fact, a lot of good electronic stuff on there never saw a physical release, so ripping CDs is not even an option. Licensing probably depends on

Ransomware incidents are rampant and PII breaches are quite common. Remember Equifax, who lost the PII of basically all adult US citizens? Sure, there are extremely sophisticated, targeted hacks. But those are the minority. There are also h

I fully agree with your last point. In my experience, the all-versions-packaged approach of containers actually leads to a worse patch state than a simple Ubuntu or Debian installation with unattended-upgrades.
