He targeted CCR5 which does have some (pretty striking) effect in mouse learning and synaptic turnover in particular. He was aware of that study. https://elifesciences.org/articles/20985

then Monero. the point is there is a system that minimizes trust , certainly more than the corporate system

probably not so much hypocrisy as lack of consideration. Even though the energy benefit from making apps e.g. twice as fast isn't so big, it's worth giving a try for the time savings.

it's not small. even if a show HN doesnt even reach the frontpage it s decent traffic, and , depending on the product, can be pretty relevant too. one could do the math to figure out how they came up with this $2 / upvote price -

There are trustless systems though, like bitcoin Oh btw you can buy hn upvotes too : https://upvotes.club/buy/hacker-news-upvote/

humans are bad at planning the future, but very good with the present. read something interesting immediately or forget about it. if you are willing to postpone it , it's probably not important anyway. don't worry, the internet is

yep, logarithmic. Well, the question is what's the motive about those design choices? Today's e.g. web app choices seem to be basically aesthetic with an eye for extreme novelty, and total disregard for how many times a buffer is

people will bike to work to "save the environment" but won't use C direct on metal to reduce the carbon footprint of their code. For a guy like Carmack, it may be quite frustrating working with the constraints of pytorch etc.

what kind of ideas about what audience? perhaps talk to other makers with overlapping audiences, and help each other. sadly, the main online media have become hostile to boostrapped sites.

What company writes lasting software nowadays? Most of the consumer facing stuff i use gets rewritten (worse, but fancily) for no apparent reason every 2 years. I can name products

Not all devs, San Francisco/faang devs. Author works at google, its easy to do the math: google slurping a huge chunk of the advertising market and splitting it to a few thousand people. It s enormous pay, fueled by monopoly/gatew

kind of sad that political orientation has become romantically relevant. Other than that , why not add a bidding layer on top? like, everyone starts with 1000 dollars and bid for their favorites.

unfortunately google is not supportive of newish content these days. if you re interested in some feedback , would be worth to simply post on reddit or some other forum, or to a twitter audience if you have the time

show hn > reddit > alternativeTo imho. indiehackers and other small communities are just too little traffic so i feel like i m spamming them. product hunt is either hit, or miss completely. reddit has /sideprojects and /ima

most apps didnt, but the consistency was much better with 95. The major user-facing changes was the taskbar and right clicks. It felt really consistent and made sense as a whole remarkably better than previous versions.

Sadly , this is a theme with tech, it progresses in cycles. FB replaces forums which replace yahoo which replace newsgroups. In terms of ideas, there is very few that wasn't there in the 90s, (infinite scrolling maybe; afforded by incr

i thought we are already at this stage? You can find plenty of tutorials on how to e.g. use BERT and there's plenty of people who will do that for you

ML is a very applied subject. There is entirely too little theory people need to know. In fact the most impressive vision/nlp architectures are indeed uninterpretable alchemy. It would make very little difference to study it at a unive
