That's lukewarm at most, doubt you'll find many people disagreeing here!

I recall that was the intent of HTMX? His dream being to steer HTML towards these kinds of primitives and HTMX becoming deprecated.

Algorithms don't define social medias, it's just the latest iteration from the main ones.

Is BeReal not a social media because there's no algorithmic feed?

HN is one large subreddit with it's own groupthink.

What:s the difference between reddit and HN beyond the form?

It seems to be obviously social media to me

None of this will matter if the actual business (search) suffers.

GPT-5 has been a phantom boogyman for like a year. Any time something better comes up, people claim OpenAI is holding back by not releasing some secret model despite the fact that if they had it, they'd be fully incentived to release it.

Until then the $10.5B in equity might come in handy.

Debian comes prepackaged with Python. If there are distros that are good enough for a server almost out of the box, surely Debian stable is one.

A gross projection, and you're out of your mind if you think peace is what follows that act.

For what it's worth I'm not suggesting anything, just pointing out the obvious fact that this war doesn't end with the whole of Gaza population being turned into martyrs. Looks to me like Israel responded exactly like the jihadists wanted in the first place with their attack.

>It isn't necessary to destroy Hamas with violence

It isn't possible to destroy Hamas with violence, or apartheid for that matter. Israel has created hatred towards themselves that will last for generations, even if they could kill every last Hamas member, they've made damn sure that a subset of Palestinian (if not broader) youth will reorganize a militia and the cycle of violence will go on.

ABC?

You're still supposed to read it, like you hopefully wouldn't blindly paste a big code block from SO. A useless/unused line or variable doesn't seem that hard to spot?

Seems like there would be better odds of people complying if you gave them an "AI/LLM" mode to tick at the beginning to group their results in an AI/LLM leaderboard.

Interesting lore, thanks.

I'm not complaining, glad there's more tools for searching outside the scope of SEO spam or content mills, and competition can only make the niche better (presumably, unless it gets big enough to incentivize disguising commercial content as niche blogs). Just felt like it might be a bit disingenuous to quote a blog list as inspiration for a search engine focused on "the non-commercial part of the web" which is exactly your engine's aim and wording, didn't know they've been working on small web initiatives since a similar timeline.

Hopefully you both find success and with it uplift hobbyist websites.

Isn't this more likely to have been inspired by marginalia* than a personal blogs thread? Doesn't seem to have the same results from the Apple Watch example, but it's what immediately came to mind for me when I read this post's title.

Maybe someone can correct the details since it's been a few years I done this, but we sequence DNA by PCR. Roughly, (1) breaking it up in small pieces and split strands, (2) mixing it with an enzyme that completes each single strand, (3) repeat 1 and 2 a bunch to multiply the strands many times over to make the solution a sense DNA juice, (4) pass it through a machine that'll sequence thousands of these small strands and (5) align these short DNA sequences with a software that matches unique sequences.

I did it with COI gene, which is just a short (1000ish base pairs with our snails IIRC) sequence of purely random ATGC base pairs. Lots of unique sequences make the short strands easy to match, just get a bunch of 10-15 BP bits and you can match the whole thing.

Now if your gene is 62M BP of repeating palindrome sequences, you can imagine how hard it would be to align random pieces sequenced as it will be very hard to find unique sequences to match.

It's cornier and yet still technically incorrect by not using Alphabet. And MAMAA is even cornier without putting in another vowel; arguably Nvidia's N but I feel like it doesn't quite belong. So I stand by my FAAMG, it sounds right, and everyone uses Facebook and Google rather than Meta and Alphabet anyway.

You know, Meta and Alphabet which every one outside of their respective CEOs still call Facebook and Google.

And by saying FAAMG instead of FAANG I make the statement that Cramer was high as a kite when he put Netflix in there instead of Microsoft. Today you might make a case for an N, but not at Microsoft's expense.

Isn't this more a case of supply and demand? Huge ramp on chip demand by every FAAMG, every dev and their grandmothers for AI with a mostly inelastic supply (foundry constrained and very specialized atoms tech involved).

It's not like Intel and AMD don't exist, but if everyone is pushing each other at the door for Nvidia chips..

That's particularly a US problem, ours are not crammed like sardine cans.

Not very familiar with Ubuntu's direction. I see snap for Debian too, sometimes some apps just give me that option to run it.

Is Ubuntu still better at having every driver working out of the box and being kinda seemless or is that more a thing of the past?

Can't say I was drove away from Arch as I just tried Manjaro for a bit while figuring out what distro I wanted to stick to. But it seemed to me that it required more googling to do just about anything, and since a lot of Linux programs are made with Ubuntu in mind it seemed more straightforward to get going with a Debian based distro. Might have misread the situation since I had zero Linux experience, but I figured sticking with Debian was gonna minimize how much time I'd have to be setting and fixing my system. I think there was something in particular I was struggling to get working but my memory is hazy on that.

Probably gonna try again some time but for now I try to think as little as possible about my OS as long as I can code on it.

Let's be real here, some people can't even do 10% let alone 90%. And than some people are severely mentally ill or addicted, not "slightly".

I don't think GP is saying they're not doing a good job, but that "ending homelessness" sounds like a euphemism.

I moved to Linux last year (my T430s was unbearable with Windows, but turns out still great with Linux). Briefly tried some Arch distros (which felt like a time black hole I don't care for) and Ubuntu before settling for Debian. Partly because it seems like a pretty "pure"/minimalistic OS, because I figured it's a good OS for servers too so might as well get familiar with it and because I wanted to run i3 so wanted to avoid the "bloat" from Ubuntu (which I now realize is negligeable).

While it's been serving me well, it still feels quirky and a lot of hardware stuff just didn't work out of the box so I've accumulated a fair few hacks and I dread having to butt my head against those again when this laptop inevitably craps out. Sometimes it's just finding the package you need but I also had to do a lot googling and changing speficic lines from specific config files for a bunch of things. Namely my volume buttons, mute button, Bluetooth, Bluetooth devices, recorder, brightness buttons and others I forget. My volume buttons still don't work if it's through a Bluetooth device but I'm just putting up with it cause I couldn't find an answer fast enough and on a new connect I have to explicitly go in pavucontrol (or whichever it was, "firefox no sound bluetooth debian" is seared in my search history). I never managed to get the Steam for Linux thing working and when I try again it seems to clash with the remnants of some old attempt.

Maybe I just don't have enough experience and it would be the same on any Debian or Linux distro but AFAIK Ubuntu does much better at handling drivers out of the box.

I like the simplicity of it at face value but I'm not sure why I wouldn't go with Ubuntu next time to avoid the hassles or if I'm not being stubborn by not going for Windows with WSL (assuming I don't buy another old horse). Worst is I still need to run a Windows VM in it when I'm compiling something to .exe or some specific Windows only software.

I find this comment by user "Dad" very endearing.

No one cares of 100 years down the line, least of all 4-year cycle politicians.

Or much of Asia. Next time I get an apartment lease I'm for sure hooking up a bum gun in there cause I find it dreadful to dry wipe now.

I don't know that it's much of a positive tho, basically going from active to passive learning. Sitting through videos instead of reading books (much more efficient too IMO) seems like a prime example of attention span erosion to me.

It's kinda the point of WhatsApp tho, phone features using your phone number and phone book but over the internet.
