Adding to the canon, something I started awhile back, maybe worth revisiting: https://pizarrowrites.substack.com/p/the-book-of-help

Are the lessons you have distilled applicable to other institutions in society which decline due to corruption? How is corruption different from your concept of financial gravity?

What I think is surprising about this article is that I would expect the top HN comment to call out that it's an advertorial for the Turkish hair replacement industry. It's like so…

I just had more fun here than doing anything online for years. Thank you.

I believe your words should be your own. I refuse to let ai strip my words of their idiosyncrasy. I refuse to put my words into a machine that robs them of their humanity. They are…

The cynic in me questions whether this is a PR response to Glasswing.

I did something in a similar space and I'm a complete noncoder: www.sgpedge.com Probably about ten hours, all in.

I guess really the only reason it's interesting is that I don't know how to code and did this with a coding assistant. Would love feedback on it!

Funny, I use this myself, particularly in HN. I think there is a corollary though, which goes something like "Headlines which ask a question are more likely to attract attention wh…

We've seen this before. Lots of investments in the '99 runup had ad buys associated with them which did the same kind of double counting. The example would be Yahoo investing in so…

This study by Arthur Aaron on closeness drove all kinds of media attention and still gets cited all over the place. Does anyone know if it has ever been replicated?

I'm curious what the community thinks are best ways to fix the cities problems. For the sake of the exercise let's assume no new revenue.

Consumer debt to disposable income is low vs. average. It may trend up but my take is that bigger thing at play here is historically low unemployment. Good news, in other words. ht…

I should have been more specific - fine tune on our own code.

As is the case with many companies, our team has decided that the risk of using hosted AI solutions is too high. Are there any other solutions out there that would allow us to trai…

Our 10 person startup is half in and half out of Slack, in a worst of both worlds mix with Google Docs and Notion. Has anyone used Facebook Workplace? Thoughts on pros and cons?

G2.com has a lot of pricing for comparison. Not sure if it necessarily shares information not available on the vendor sites, though.
