Their A/B test told them to do it, without wondering if they should do it

Basically their engagement numbers were better for a larger amount of people by making search engines counterintuitive for early adopters.

We personally need a good robotic search engine that indexes like a robot. Everyone else needs a semi-sentient thing that makes many assumptions about what they want to see.

Does anybody here just use Bitcoin and Ether to write to their respective databases?

I feel like these binary discussions always here miss this native use case that people use. Those people wouldnt brag about it

> Whatever remains is typically taken away by lobbyist that only help to further inflate shareholder value

I honestly love this. The mechanisms of consensus have never been so unguarded while entrenched interests are guarding polar fringes of every party. This is great, for me.

Have fun with the popular vote.

The answer is “yes, all industries where investors dont care about that”

and luckily for investors there is nothing else to invest in

I appreciate the European Collective Bargaining against corporations

People that hacked and released NSA exploit: still free

People that weaponized NSA exploit and released Wannacry bitcoin ransom: still free (I think?)

People that weaponized NSA exploit for Monero mining: richer than Wannacry creator and still free

People that made silly exploit at NSA: still free

Moral of the story is dont get caught.

WELL, do note that this is about an infraction that occurred in mid-2018, LONG after the "ardent HODL-ers" were skeptical about it and while Tether had its highest level of confidence in the market, instead of like 2016.

So it is almost like a caricature of its own criticisms.

Tesla stock trades like a leveraged Credit Default Swap

“labourers” is a euphamism for prostitutes

Make sense yet?

commissions are commissions

People used to do this to bitcoin addresses all the time back in 2013, the same servers are probably still running

I always thought about all the opportunities to do it on other blockchains, but the challenge of picking which blockchain would be so taxing

Now that this season there are several high values one like Ethereum you can easily choose

The concepts are the same for all of the chains

Also lol at state actor. Guessing a private key of “1”? Come on. People were doing this with entire phrases from obscure songs and poems 6 years ago. No brainwallet is safe. Deflecting is a great way to get away with hacking

Doesnt donate to political candidate

Doesnt run a PAC

Doesnt NOT donate to PAC, which can be for any cause or even a political candidate and also anonymous

Cheeseburgers shouldnt exist either, I still eat them

> It didn’t need to be spiced up with a provocative title to be valuable.

Yes it did. HN title-fu is the same appeal to emotion as any political blog and is just as effective at surfacing stories, thanks to people just like you.

You came to this thread and made your noise for pedantic reasons and helped surface it higher so the correct audience could actually see it

Obviously? Thats why it says “and instead just” after “attempting to make money”?

Attempting to make money making side projects and instead just expensing servers and subcontractors and getting the tax refund from everything my employer withheld by April

Schrodinger’s Expansionist Policy

Like too many unqualified candidates trying for it?

Candidates arguing about the amount?

Comp for a take home interview assignment isnt common yet so the social more doesnt exist.

It is an effective strategy, my observation is that way more energy is expended in debating the term MLM by assuming it is a pejorative term and the potential legal ramifications

Without a government stance on any particular viral campaign I typically try to avoid MLMs as I find them unattractive

With government stance and intervention I notice that the only result is for people to understand exactly how to operate an MLM to avoid government intervention

Most ideas simply arent self sustaining without the productivity of new participants getting diminishing returns from that idea

Adding a pejorative label to that reality is arbitrary

> Every country in the world would be an empire like the US if they only could.

Not every country has an expansionist policy

Surprise.

> It's easy for everyone to believe that Musk was the real reason behind the death of the planet. He was the first guy to believe the same as we did.

Robot, no

Well not everyone cares, the media gets clicks from the hoards people who can never qualify to even aspire to be in the same situation, but not everyone sees it as an embarrassment

2045 hackernews headline: “Senses capable of spying should have hardware switches”

Great! Have you encountered any abuse of the compensation aspect?

I typically want to see how people use resources and deliver with real IDEs and collaborative tools like git

and where banks get settlements for non-compliance, non-banks get jail.

its not usually because of the private currency, its the compliance, the crowd that flocks to them, the contents of the server, with the sanctioning being almost exclusively on the issuer.

permissionless distributed ones don't have this issue

yeah, people have been flocking to them because many nations will jail centralized issuers

I guess France doesn't care!

> "We only hire the best"

of the people looking for jobs........ ?

> Maybe smaller companies are failing at capitalism by not competing?

By not having money?

This is capitalism working as expected, the only reason you would word it that way is out of ignorance.

I met some dentists the other day that waterpicks may be doing more harm to gum density, while still helping get food particles out to avoid plaque building (which itself will do harm to gum density and cause other forms of decay)

yeah well its not like my non-existent flossing habits will supplant my waterpick half-solution. But I do wonder the support for any of this wisdom.

Hm... so I gather that you consider yourself the tolerant person in your society. Assuming that you are willing to imagine living in a more collaborative society all you need to understand is that people are just people. They have the same wants and desires. Connection, purpose, security, a general understanding that self-preservation requires respecting other people's goal of self-preservation.

It is that simple.

I did, you just abstract the problem out.

Some programming language and frameworks have more active communities on StackOverflow than others.

So in my sprints, I would typically have 3 tasks in progress at once: 1 I would work on myself, 1 would go on Stackoverflow waiting for the answer, and 1 would be something that required progress from a different team in the company (like a new API endpoint so I could do something on a frontend, or different service)

It was pretty efficient for me. In some communities, the real thought leaders and framework developers are on stack overflow, watching the hashtag like a hawk.

You can also use github issues on the actual package you have issue with pretty well too, alongside it.

So you're really crowdsourcing a lot, and evaluating if that solution is correct enough for your implementation.

But so many times, especially with frameworks, the answer is a good copy and paste job. your mileage and use case may vary.
