my favorite part about search lores wasn't the actual tips on how to google, but his writing style and the mysterious, almost occult feeling i got from visiting that website, with latin phrases and history strewn everywhere. Thanks for

Make it opt-in. Instead of requiring every search to be finished in less than 0.5 seconds, allow users to tick a box that says "Take your time" and pull indices from slow storage in that case. If I know I want something niche, I a

holy crap, thanks for sharing Wiby! For the past two weeks I have been trying to find an old website by searching for "old mysterious site search engines" and "how to search deep parts of web" and "search engine tri

If you can't reproduce something through randomized control trials, then you should at the very least be very skeptical about it and not pass legislation purely based on people's views.

Similar to the studies done on infrasound, which seems to bother residents living near wind farms. The studies show that the biggest indicator of whether you're affected by infrasound is if you're told there is infrasound being em

I really need to do something like this for Rust. Ive been coding it for the past few months and still couldn't tell you off the top of my head what the subtle differences between Rc, Refcell, Cell, Box, RwLock and Mutex are. Now there

I don't understand this logic. The users are learning Python , not C++ when they're trying to learn data science or implement a machine learning model. Should I say Tensor flow isn't written in C++ but CUDA or OpenCL? Any se

Yet the entire data science world is built on Python. I don't understand this blatant disregard of reality.

It's like saying picking up a ball from point A and putting in point B, then taking it from point B and putting back in point A is "reversing time".

Using Material design always feels so sluggish. Is it the shadows? Can someone with more CSS knowledge speculate about what's causing the high latency?

Tech companies represent some of the largest concentration of wealth in the world...what power imbalance are you talking about?

Why not move to another DBMS rather than move off from SQL altogether?

I would like to remind readers that Amazon funded this poll. Take from that what you will.

I agree with you that 4chan isn't the meme generator place it used to be. But I would say that the memes produced on reddit, Twitter or Facebook are different qualitatively. They have much broader appeal usually (normie) than 4chan. Bu

by typon 8y ago
People are so enamoured by 4chan precisely because it isn't like reddit. Reddit, Facebook or any social media platform that rewards users with up votes, karma, reputation, likes or whatever creates a system in which people want to plea

You are technically right yet still downvoted. These days these words have so many different definitions for different people that they've become nearly meaningless.

Being pro-labour is one of the cornerstones of being leftist. I think you are using the word liberal differently than the antonym of conservative - which I am implying to be "right-wing". Maybe "social liberalism" is a g

Programmers, maybe ones on HN especially, are super conservative and anti-labour for some reason. I don't know the history of Silicon Valley enough to figure out exactly why

You are really underestimating the difficulty in making humanoid robots that actually work well. Sure we can make a basketball shooting machine with a high accuracy, but one that participate in a game, dribble, pass etc? Near impossible wit

Why do they get praise for their 2012 predictions but get a pass for their 2016 mispredictions? If they gave Trump a 30% chance to win and, as you say, it is perfectly ordinary for a 30% chance event to happen, then what is the point of the

This is the "right" approach - speaking from experience after having tried both ways (10-90 vs 90-10). The general structure is that your application is built as a DAG with the nodes representing C++ functions (not methods on clas

The annoying part is that ML is not sold to the world like this. I would say the truth (I believe) in this comment is the "dirty little secret" of our industry. Everyone working on it knows this but the research and VC dollars are
