The article mentions that a lot of the trucking spot market takes place on load boards (DAT, Truckstop, etc...) How did the spot market work before the internet/the proliferation of technological devices? Where did the "pool"

The article mentions that a problem of investing _that_ much money is the scale. Is assume you'd have non-negligeable effects on what you invested in/effects in the intermediate levels (like putting too much money through the orde

They do mention part way through the article how much of a stretch the term has become > Admittedly, the variance between these entities shows how the term “family office” has lost some meaning.

How do you correlate the installation with the company if it's pirated, for going after mid/large sized companies? Phone home and reverse IP lookup?

I do that sometimes too. Sometimes I type the couple things I need out of a module. If it's something I end up relying on more, I usually start digging deeper and end up cloning it. The hardest are the large libraries with no types and

Same here, I've found it very useful in projects where I don't have a lot of dependencies. In another project with more exotic dependencies, it has become a hassle somewhat. I've found learning the .d.ts syntax to help easily

So there really is just a careful balance between salesperson role and community participant role (for good salespeople who understand the balance, disregarding the salespeople who just sell and push). And as long as the community/empl

And that feels like the problem. You can't live alongside your customers unless you are truly invested in the community, and it feels rare that passion for the community would be weighed higher over the sales position salary when job a

I admit I fall into a mindset as described surrounding sales. So maybe acting authentically in sales role is doing the best you can (authentic to yourself and the customer) to a point where there comes to exist a conflict of interest with y

Are there really online communities that are so welcoming to salespeople? How can one authentically exist in a community while taking money to do so? It feels inauthentic, a lie by omission, astroturfing. I'm genuinely curious if there

If AI content is already this indistinguishable from normal content, how much normal content is "real content" anymore? We have no metric or insight into this. The percentage will keep increasing as it's cheap and very econom

I wish that was towards the top of the article. It makes the whole "mystical paper" terminology make more sense. Cash becomes a burden to anyone moving lots of volume of money. That's what the article means by "useful mo

Has HN been losing context, or is it just me? I feel like the articles that get to the top are more and more "general" and things you might find on news.google.com Do people filter all this stuff in their client?

That affiliate link in the article made this much harder to trust. Wonder if ChatGPT could generate articles like this, just to put some product at the center of story. That being said, 33% of doctors I've dealt with follow a simple he

Are there two separate parcel IDs? One for each authority in the respective state? Do you pay property tax on the full acreage to each state or only on the partial acreage in each state?

You have to provide government issued ID if you are a high volume seller that is a business and not an individual. There are also different rules about address disclosure for corporations. Per the blog post

Oh dear, yeah, the UI has been dystopian. The cryptic errors, the lack of feedback to let you know if things completed, links to partner websites with absolutely broken pieces of critical information (I couldn't get a prescription list

Why didn't they just ordinance the noise or the improper disposal of chemicals if those are their concerns? Local laws always seem so reactionary and poorly thought out.

I don't think that is comparable. It's very different to do something in someone else's spot than in a spot you own and in a way that doesn't impact other people.

Figured it out. I found if you make a new developer account and application, you can fill out the Elevated credentials form and you will be automatically accepted (no waiting or manual process). This will get you access to the premium v1.1

Hmm, just tried that. Had to switch to the v1.1 API (v2 does not work with the extracted API keys, you get a `Sorry, official Twitter clients cannot use this API. Register your own.` error), but it still doesn't have access to the prem
